Frequently Asked Questions
Below are some common questions we receive. If you don't find your answer here, please feel free to contact us directly.
Do you provide on-site window inspections?
Lamuxmipih provides guidance and information rather than on-site inspections. However, we can help you understand what to look for and advise on whether professional assessment might be beneficial for your situation.
Can you recommend local window contractors?
We focus on providing maintenance guidance and practical advice. For contractor recommendations, we suggest checking local Galway business directories, asking for referrals from friends or family, and always getting multiple quotes from qualified professionals.
How often should I have my windows professionally serviced?
Most windows benefit from annual inspection and maintenance. This is especially important in Irish climate conditions where weather exposure is significant. Professional servicing every 3-5 years can extend window life and identify issues early.
Are your recommendations suitable for older Irish homes?
Yes. Many of our recommendations are specifically tailored to address challenges common in older Irish properties, including period sash windows, wooden frames, and the effects of our climate on windows. We always consider the age and construction of homes when offering guidance.
What materials do I need for basic window maintenance?
See our Tools & Materials section for a complete list of items recommended for window care. Most are inexpensive and readily available from Irish hardware stores. You don't need to buy everything at once—start with cleaning supplies and add items as needed.
