Family Owned & Operated

A Legacy of Craftsmanship Since 1975

We believe every window deserves to make a statement. Mike Denaro Sr. started the business in 1975 with a simple goal: give Greater Boston families real craftsmanship and personal service. Today his son, Mike Jr., carries that same care forward from our shop at 643 Moody St. in Waltham.

Older homes here rarely have square windows, so we measure each one ourselves and make every treatment to fit. Take a look at finished rooms in the project gallery, read our family's story, or book a free in-home consultation whenever you're ready.

Two generations, one promise

Every project is personal, professional and stress-free, from the first visit to the last bracket.
