Questions to Ask Your Tradie
• What type of timber species do you plan to use for the restoration?
• Will you treat the timber with weather-resistant preservatives and anti-fungal solutions?
How to Avoid Surprises
• Ensure the work area around the windows is clear of obstructions and debris.
• Verify that all hardware, such as hinges and handles, will be inspected and, if necessary, replaced.
