[quote=Anonymous]If the house and the windows have architectural interest, I would conserve the relevant details and refinish the original windows (which is going to be costly if done well). If it's a simple brick colonial, and the windows are otherwise unremarkable, I would compare the cost of refinishing energy-inefficient windows vs. replacement with more energy-efficient windows. If I were to change the windows I would not use vinyl. I would probably do fiberglass (or equivalent) outside and wood inside, such as Marvin Elevate or Andersen 400 Woorwright.[/quote]
