Hello everyone & happy Thursday! ☀️
Attached below are photos of a recent project we completed.
As you can see, years of rainfall and a carpenter ant infestation (which we took care of) had compromised the structural integrity of this overhang.
Unfortunately, the existing 2x8s and 2x4s were beyond repair and required a complete replacement.
We were able to carefully raise the roof to its original height using jacks. After a meticulous removal process, we installed a new sandwiched 2x12 to provide support for the roof's weight on both sides of the overhang.
Once secure, we replaced the existing rotten post with a new 4x4 cedar post and installed a protective water barrier along with proper step flashing where necessary.
As always, feel free to send us a message with any potential projects you may be looking at for your home!
Thank you!
