Services · Historic Replacement
Window and door replacement for historic homes.
CRO-approved profiles from Loewen and Lincoln, with the documentation experience to navigate Lafayette Square, Soulard, Compton Heights, the Central West End, and other St. Louis preservation districts.
Overview
Preservation work is its own discipline.
Historic homes have specific profile requirements, narrow tolerances, and review processes that can take weeks. We carry Loewen and Lincoln profiles approved for City of St. Louis historic replacement and have direct experience navigating Cultural Resources Office submittals. The most important conversation is the first one. Talk to us before you file, and early conversations save weeks.
Built for review
Profiles and documentation that hold up to scrutiny.
Preservation review rewards getting the details right the first time. We help match historically appropriate profiles, divided lite patterns, and materials, then organize the cut sheets and documentation a Cultural Resources review tends to ask for.
What’s included
How we support historic replacement projects.
01
Historic Profile Review
We help compare sash profiles, mullion widths, divided lite patterns, exterior details, and material options against the character of the original opening.
02
Product Recommendations
Loewen and Lincoln are often strong fits for St. Louis historic replacement work, with wood and clad options that can support the right appearance, detailing, and performance needs.
03
Submittal Support
Profile drawings, product information, material details, glass notes, and supporting documentation can be organized for review by the city, architect, consultant, or preservation team.
04
District Experience
We understand the care required in older St. Louis neighborhoods and preservation districts, including Lafayette Square, Soulard, Compton Heights, Central West End, Shaw, Tower Grove, and surrounding areas.
05
Storm windows as an option
When full replacement is not the right answer, storm windows can help preserve original windows while improving comfort, insulation, draft reduction, and sound performance.
06
Coordination with the Project Team
We work with homeowners, architects, builders, consultants, and preservationists so the product path supports the approval process and the finished architecture.
