Tesuque repairs: cottonwood fluff, dirt-road dust and wind-whipped sashes

Country living is hard on windows and doors in its own ways. Spring cottonwood fluff mats into screens, dust from unpaved roads finds its way into every track, and a gust on an exposed ridge can catch an open casement and bend its hardware.

Common Tesuque repairs

Screens clogged or tornRescreening, new splines and straightened frames. Finer mesh options are available if fluff and insects are a constant battle.
Gritty, grinding slidersTrack cleaning, new rollers and adjusted panels, plus better weatherstripping to slow the dust down next season.
Bent casement cranks or hingesReplacement operators, hinges and limit stops, so the sash can't be yanked wide open by a sudden gust.
Fogged view glassNew insulated glass units built for the altitude, fitted into the existing frames when they're still sound.
Swollen village doorsRe-hanging, planing and resealing old wood doors that bind after wet weather.

One trip, several fixes

Because Tesuque is a drive from town for us and for you, we try to make each visit count. Tell us about everything that's bothering you, from a sticky door to a torn screen, and we'll bring what we can and quote the rest in one go.

If a repair needs parts we don't carry, we'll order them and come back once, rather than making several partial visits.

Tesuque repair questions

Is there a screen that handles cottonwood fluff better?

A tighter mesh can help keep fluff and small insects out, though it slightly reduces airflow and clarity. We'll show you a sample so you can judge the trade-off.

Can you combine several small repairs into one Tesuque visit?

Yes, and we'd prefer to. List everything in the form or on the phone, and we'll plan the visit so as much as possible gets done at once.

A gust ripped our casement open. Is the window ruined?

Usually not. Bent operators and hinges can be replaced, and we can add a limiter so the sash only opens partway. If the frame itself is cracked, replacement may be the better option.

Make your list, and we'll make the trip.

Torn screens, grinding tracks, fogged glass or a stuck door: tell us everything, and we'll plan one efficient visit.
