Sashmo restores and rebuilds historic windows in Baton Rouge, matching every detail to your home's original architectural period.
Most window companies want to rip out your originals and sell you vinyl. That's not restoration. That's demolition with a sales pitch.
Sashmo takes a different approach. We assess what you have, repair what we can, rebuild what we must, and match everything to the architectural language of your home. Sash weights, period-correct glazing, historically accurate profiles.
The result is a window that works like new and looks like it's been there since 1890. Because it has.
Broken sash cords, stuck frames, failed glazing, drafty seals. We get your existing windows working properly again without altering their character.
Strip, repair, re-glaze, weatherstrip, and refinish. Every component is inspected and brought back to original condition with period-appropriate materials.
When originals are too far gone, we build new windows that match the home's architectural period exactly. Correct profiles, authentic joinery, proper materials.
A restored window outperforms a vinyl replacement, lasts longer, and keeps the architectural integrity that makes a historic home worth living in.
The case for preservation over replacement
We inspect every window opening, document conditions, identify the architectural period, and determine what needs repair, restoration, or rebuilding. You get a clear scope before any work begins.
We study the original window profiles, hardware, glazing methods, and materials specific to your home's era. Antebellum, Creole, Victorian, Craftsman, we know the differences and they matter.
Each window is restored or rebuilt by hand using techniques and materials appropriate to the period. Sash weights restrung, joints repaired, glass carefully re-glazed, hardware restored or replicated.
We add discreet weatherstripping and optimize the fit so your restored windows are draft-free and energy efficient, without visible modern modifications.
Sashmo exists because Baton Rouge's historic homes deserve craftspeople who understand them. Not salespeople pushing replacements.
