My firm repairs windows in which the glass has been cracked or broken by removing and replacing the sash. For casement windows, we unscrew and remove the hinges on the old window, pull out the old sash, and install the new sash.

Therefore, such tasks may fit within the definition of minor repair and maintenance i.e., activities that disturb six square feet or less of…
