Our Work
On this page you can find examples of the work and projects we have done.
Repair. Paint. Restore.
The process of cleaning and refinishing 25 year old shingles included extensive scraping and power washing. Scaffolding allowed us to replace all window trim and flashing.
Scaffolding was eventually required to complete carpentry repairs and staining/painting.
Butyl flashing tape (bituthene or zip tape) applied to the rough openings prior to air barrier.

Demolition of all items including 3" of layered subfloor, and existing rotted floor joists.
Tuck pointing the foundation will lock together the field stone and help resist any movement. Previous mortar work was not present.
