By Editor | May 12, 2021 By MARK EVANS Windows are to be repaired, not replaced, says historic preservationist Bob Yapp. “In 160-plus properties I’ve been involved in restoring, I’ve never replaced a window,” Yapp told the Herald. “The big lie in America today is that you should replace your windows.” Yapp will share his passion and expertise on window repair, as well as wood siding repair, during special workshops in Ste. Genevieve this weekend. The historic preservation workshops will be held May 14-16, sponsored by the Ste. Genevieve Heritage Commission. The May 14 workshop will be a classroom session and will be 8:30 a.m.–3:30 p.m.
