| New beams replace rotted sill. This will get covered
with sheeting and the new porch framing. |
Notice all the dirt removal done to protect the new
structure from future rot and decay. |
 |
 |
| Sheeting is placed on the new structure
and the porch foundation laid. Could you or your inspector detect
covered rot that had not been replaced? |
A fun shot of both the old and new front dormers... |
 |
 |
| The old gable is gone and we're ready
for a new roof! |
Roofers hard at work while exterior trim is in progress. |
| |
|
| Another perspective of the new gable
(and roofers!). Note the reused siding on the side of the house
has been installed. Can you tell those windows were moved?. |
New porch, roof, gable shake siding, facia, trim
and beaded board porch ceiling. Almost ready for exterior paint. |

|
|
| The driveway went in during this phase so as to efficiently
coordinate concrete work. All new footings were poured simultaneously. |
The beautiful tree in the front yard is going to
be much happier with the old concrete steps removed... |
 |
 |
| Deck footings and stair pad are ready. The framing
will get completed during weeks 7 and 8. |
We reuse anything we can when it makes economical
and practical sense. Here is a door and insulation material stored
for use on this project. |
 |
 |
| The cardboard from our projects get taken to a recycling
center along with bags of plastic bottles. |
Some of this siding was used to cover old window
locations in the side-view photo above. |
