New window designs and styles are produced yearly. As a result, the
structure, design, and materials are subject to change on a constant basis.

window chips are repairable, but if these problems keep resurfacing over
and over again, then you should consider window replacement.
Wooden window frame is mostly affected by moisture and weather
damage, however, with proper maintenance, they can last for many years.
Otherwise, you’ll find out that the wood has rotten beyond repair or
maintenance. In this case, window replacement becomes a necessity,
whether it be the window sash, the window jamb, the muntin bar or the
entire frame.
