Thank you!

Is the sill under a shaded window in your Brookville home turning spongy? Has a falling branch torn a screen, or does a sash refuse to move? Those problems sound bigger than they usually are. A repair can often take care of them, and your windows stay in place.

If your lot is wooded

Brookville zoning requires at least two acres for residential property. If trees shade your house, that is pleasant in summer. But on the side that never sees sun, wood around windows and doors may stay damp after rain.

Over the years, damp wood softens and paint lifts. Leaves and seeds also pack into sliding door tracks and window sills. Check those spots each fall. If wood gives under your finger, call us, and we can rebuild just that piece.

If storms bring down limbs near your house

The village’s own Nature Park has weathered hurricanes and blizzards over the years. With big trees close by, a storm may send a limb into a screen or a pane of glass.

After a storm, walk the outside of the house. Torn screens can get new mesh, and a cracked pane can get new glass without a new frame. If a door was struck, we can check its hinges and frame and get it closing again.

When cranks and painted sashes stop working

Many Brookville houses were put up in the 1950s or the 1960s, and nearly all are one-family houses. Windows from that time may crank open on hinges or slide up and down in wood frames. Paint builds up, cranks wear and sashes stick.

We free painted-shut sashes, replace worn cranks and fit new parts where the old ones gave out. Your windows keep their original character, and they look better and work smoothly again.

Brookville’s review boards and your windows

The village says its Architectural Review Board approves or denies alterations to existing properties. Its job, in the village’s words, is respecting “the historical integrity of the appearance” of Brookville. The village says the decisions of its review boards are binding.

So before you change the look of your windows or doors, phone Village Hall at 516-626-0973, 18 Horse Hill Road. The Building Department asks you to call before starting any project. Repairing what you have keeps the original style of your windows. Even so, ask the village whether your job needs its review.

FAQ

Questions from Brookville homeowners

The wood under one window feels soft. Is the whole window ruined?

Not usually. Rot often starts in the sill, the flat piece at the bottom. We remove the soft wood and rebuild that section, and the window above it stays.

A branch tore two of my screens. Can you fix them?

Yes. We put new screening into the frames you have. If a frame got bent, we can straighten it or make a new one.

My windows are painted shut. Can you open them without breaking anything?

Usually, yes. We cut through the paint carefully and free the sash. Then we clean the channels so it slides again.

Does Village Hall have to sign off on a window repair?

Call Village Hall at 516-626-0973 before you start. The village asks residents to call before any project. Its review boards look at alterations to existing homes.

Can you also help me in Old Westbury, Muttontown or the other Brookvilles?

Yes. Old Westbury, Muttontown, Upper Brookville and Old Brookville all border Brookville, and we serve each of them.
