Welcome to TMC Windows

Wood Window Restoration

TMC WINDOWS, INC. is a high quality carpentry shop located in Skokie, IL. We began specializing in windows in the late 1990’s. Our company is the culmination of over thirty years of residential carpentry and remodeling experience in and around Chicago. We work primarily as specialist subcontractors with architects, contractors and historical building developers. We are dedicated to providing expert wood window and entryway restoration.

If you are here, you know why the restoration of original windows and doors is worthwhile.  We have the experience, tools, and trained manpower to be your Window Restoration resource on larger residential and light commercial window and door restoration projects. As part of a restoration project, we are able to replicate and expertly finish missing sashes, full window units, or millwork to match missing or damaged pieces. If you have a wood window or door project you need completed on schedule, give us a call, send us a copy of the blueprints, or drop us an email.  

What we can do:

  • Window restoration projects up to 100 windows.
  • Projects as small as 10 windows.
  • Replicate missing sashes, window units, window related millwork, and custom wood storms. 
  • Full restoration of doors. 

We are geared towards larger historic restoration projects on classic homes and buildings. We discourage homeowner repairs and small projects, which in most cases can be more economically handled by local handymen. Examples include:

  • Work on metal windows.
  • Work on any replacement windows no matter how old they are (Marvin, Pella etc.).     
  • Replacing broken glass, a couple of sash chains.
  • Restoring storm windows that are not part of a restoration project.
  • Projects with less than 10 windows.   

Give us a call at 847 329-8000, or use our Contact Us page and we'll get back to you promptly.
