Window Repair & Replacement in Troy, OH

Troy is the seat of Miami County, and its center still wraps around the 1807 Public Square — a landscaped traffic circle with a fountain where the county’s third courthouse once stood. Two overlay historic districts spread out from there: the Central Troy district along the Great Miami River and the Southwest district just below it. Between them sits one of the most varied collections of early-1900s homes in the Dayton area.

That variety is exactly why no two window jobs here look alike. On a single block we will see American Foursquares and Craftsman bungalows with deep wood double-hungs, Dutch Colonials with gambrel dormers, and Tudor Revivals whose original steel casements and leaded, diamond-pane glass have started to rust, bind, and drop their glazing. Add the 1914 Romanesque Hayner mansion and the Victorians ringing the square, and you get a downtown where the right fix depends entirely on the window in front of us.

After this many Ohio winters, the patterns repeat. Wood sashes swell and stick, sash cords snap, and the putty around the glass crumbles away. Steel casements rust at the corners and stop closing tight, while the soldered cames on leaded windows sag and let the small diamond panes work loose. Cracked panes show up on otherwise solid frames, and the early double-pane units some owners added a generation ago now fog from the inside. Most of it is repairable. A broken pane on a sound frame is a straightforward glass repair, and a fogged sealed unit usually calls for an insulated glass replacement rather than a whole new window. From our base in the Dayton area we cover every street from the river down to Canal, often the same week you call.
