Each window, and each job is different.

Working within your budget and goals, together we will determine the scope of work on a case by case basis.   
You may be concerned about the exterior, or want to concentrate on getting the window to open and close smoothly.  
Maybe you want to change the interior paint to a new color ...
     ... or add weatherstripping to cut your energy bill
         .... or simply replace a broken pane
              ... or repair decayed wood on the outside and inside 
                  ... or live in a historic preservation district and want functional windows that conform to local standards
                       ... or put your finger in the eye of the snake-oil vinyl window sales ads, as you know their products only
                                 have a 15-20 year life cycle before they fall apart and need to be replaced.
