Our Andersen Woodwright 400 series windows are in! Erik worked his tail off with Kevin's help and were able to install the slider, transom above and the double hung window after work on May 1st. This happened so fast- that I was only able to capture them the next day! The hole in the deck from the tree removal was helpful since the deck is about a foot too high for our finished floor height. That will come off in the next few posts...
Anyway, we are thrilled to have working windows that have a cladding, we won't have to paint the exterior and are already painted on the interior as well. Having a window that we won't feel the draft coming through will make a huge difference this winter. We are also looking forward to the federal Energy tax credits for this year. Stay tuned for more window installations- hopefully before it gets really hot.
Keep looking- we'll be siding that soon, seriously we won't leave the Typar up much longer. Unfortunately many of our fellow Mainers don't realize that Typar isn't a siding material and actually has a life expectancy that is hastened by UV exposure. I am sure our neighbors will be thrilled when some shingles go up.
Thanks Tom Jordan for the spelling lesson this evening.

Love THE wrench! Looks like you and Erik (and Bartlet) have been working your tails off. The house and property look amazing. We can't wait to see it in person! xoxo Darah & Chip
