Foundation repair! One of my favorite type of projects is 1960s-80s foundation repair. Between the rough cut timber and the old style steel nails it's a nostalgic job.
1980s house had a bay window overhang. Not very big, 10'x5'. As you can see the timbers of the foundation were completely rotten out. The corners especially had taken the bulk of the damage. After removing the 6x6 timbers that were damaged. I installed new yellow pine timbers, rough cut of course so they fit perfectly. Installed installation after air sealing and new siding paper which was not there before. Finished everything off with paint and we're better than we were before!
Super fun project!
