Well, we have our new windows in place (pictures to come soon and link goes here) and they are so nice .. it really makes a difference in how bright the rooms are now with a white frame around the windows rather than a dark wood color frame. It also is quite warmer in the apartment now, so I guess there was some “mini holes” in the old windows where the draft was coming from.. now i have to re do the thermostats on the radiators next winter.. ;)

The pictures show all the work they have done in the past few days since my last update.

Our side of the house with the new windows in place + balcony windows and door

the side of the building with the new insulation going on.
