Happy Monday, everyone!🏡
We decided to take advantage of the warm weather to replace some windows in this beautiful log cabin. 🪟🪟
The homeowners knew the existing windows had run their course and weren’t very efficient to start, so they decided to replace them with Andersen’s. ‼️You get what you pay for when it comes to windows and doors.‼️
We replaced these windows individually, taking the time to ensure they were insulated from the exterior and interior. We trimmed, caulked and sealed to prevent water infiltration from outside, then finished the interior trim.
If you’re thinking you may need new windows or doors, give us a call!

Hey, everyone! We’ve spent the past few weeks working on an old barn, built in the early 20th century that needed some serious structural repairs.
After decades being encased in ivy, locust trees (and some past indoor-pigeon hunting) two corners of the structure needed to be completely demolished down the the piers, and reframed.
Next came the exterior work. We removed all the old clapboard siding, framed and installed windows, soffit and facia, and corrugated metal for siding. We wrapped up with some barn doors and hardware. Talk about making a pearl out of a pig’s ass!
We finished up with some interior work to accomadate the owners needs of use.

We’re proud to have revived this piece of history, and I’d imagine the man who built it would be pleased to see his hard work continue to serve his descendants.

Hey everyone, happy Yard Crawl!
Today we finished up a job for a family who wanted to remodel their home and gain back a lot of lost living space. They asked us to frame it and get it in the dry, then they’d take care of the rest! Here’s how we did it:
•We started by framing the new roof system over the middle section of the structure (living room). This was done first to keep the living room in the dry, as we were eventually going to remove its existing roof system.
•We then removed the existing roof system, vaulted rear wall, and a portion of a screened back deck
•In went the second floor, and both exterior walls were framed and sheeted.
•The roof system was completed and shingled.
•To finish, in went windows and siding to match existing style.
We’re happy to get the ball rolling for these homeowners!

Replaced an old shingle roof with new standing seam! We do all types of roofing, but we’re definitely biased to standing seam.
With these recent high winds we’ve had, if you or someone you know has experienced damage to your roof, keep us in mind. We do repairs if practical and of course full replacement.

Hey everyone, check out this deck repair! We replaced the decking, handrail and anything structural that had any rot/soft spots. Composite decking and our own custom pressure treated handrails (as well as these milder days) have the homeowners very excited to use their outdoor space again.
If you have a deck in need of an update, let us know!

Here’s a 20x32 pavilion we built to finish out 2024!

There was some room in the customers budget, so we milled some white pine tongue and groove for the ceiling. That along with the facia, soffit, and gable ends has this building looking slick!

If you’re in need of a new outbuilding of any kind, keep us in mind!
