    Repair/replaster ceiling first or replace windows?

    Hi. I've got a bay window in my kitchen that needs replacing. The original single-glazed wooden frame is quite rotten and I'd like to have it replaced with new double-glazed windows. Over the winter, there was a leak in the ceiling of the bay window, caused by a damaged gutter. The leak is...
