Exteriors & Frame to Finish

Focusing on Exterior Remodeling & Interior Frame to Finish

Cedar trimmed front porch columns.

Replicating an original railing design per an 1800's photo from downtown White Bear Lake, MN. The new railing was designed to meet modern building codes while keeping the original aesthetic.

An interesting historic brick house remodel. The porch roof railing flashing had leaked and caused rot damage that led the roof to sink 4-5". The porch beams were replaced, and mouldings were replicated and repaired. A picture frame border was added to address persistant rot issues along the edge. Crown mouldings were replicated and replaced along the turret fascia.

Italianate house repair. Original shiplap siding and crown mouldings were replicated out of western red cedar. Window sashes were rebuilt, flashings installed, flat roof replacement, porch floor repairs, staircase replaced and much more.

Flat roof repair. Old roofing and sheathing were removed. Rafters were repaired, new plywood and blocking were installed. New EPDM flatroof membrane roof with built up bolteed down brackets anchor posts. The railing was designed to reflect the original design on the 1800's home.

Loft buildout. Oak treads & flooring with rustic pine shiplap and risers.

Repairing a damaged garage. The exterior wall between the house and garage was hit by a car. The house had damage to the foundation, bearing wall and anchor. Damaged material was removed, studs were scabbed and a form was placed over the damaged block wall for a concrete repair.
