Day 15 Roofing started

Artis Exterior October 3, 2016October 8, 2016 0 Comment

I’ve been painting windows. Steven is working in the basement – disconnecting the water heater, the boiler, and the oil tank. The first 6 pieces of metal roofing went up today. Yaah!

Day 13 & 14 North wall siding and corbels

Artis Exterior September 29, 2016October 6, 2016 0 Comment

The siding is installed on the north wall. The window frame is installed – we are still working on restoring the windows themselves. Corbels are on each corner of the wall to support the roof.

Day 12 Rotted Area in North Porch Roof & New Sidewalk

Artis Exterior September 28, 2016 0 Comment

We found that there was a leak in the north porch. Our dedicated carpenters opened the roof up and found extensive rot. Lindsey cleaned it up and did this lovely patch.  I used the last of the driveway pavers to construct a sidewalk to the front porch.
