Gepetto Millworks based in Virginia supplies historically accurate wooden windows for large scale renovation of historic buildings across the south east.  We have supplied the Spartansburg SC area’s Montgomery Building in downtown, the Bull Street District in Columbia South Carolina, and Richmond VA’s tobacco row, Mainstreet, Shokoe Bottom, The Fan, and Museum District with custom made all wood joinery windows.  Our window builds have been extensively tested and while historically accurate include weather stripping made of modern materials that meet and exceed all environmental and durability tests they have been subjected to.  Single pane, hand glazed windows have worked in the south for over 200 years, and there’s nothing better than the test of time.
