Box windows in the centre, PVC in Bronowice
The tenement houses of the centre and Kazimierz still have wooden box windows. Some owners restore them, replacing the putty and seals and adding insulation, while others put in new windows. In buildings under heritage protection, the street-side look of the windows has to be approved, so check with the residents' association before you order a replacement. Restoration usually doesn't need that paperwork.
In Ruczaj and Bronowice the windows are new, but sometimes a sash rubs against the frame or there's a draught from the reveals. Then instead of replacing it, adjusting the hardware and sealing is enough. Owners of rented-out flats also order insect screens, blinds and lockable handles before families with children arrive. Small things like these are easy to bundle into one order.
