Renovations
Similar to additions, renovations are a great way to keep costs down while upgrading areas of your home. We have remodeled kitchens, basements, bedrooms, bathrooms and everything in between. Whether you are looking to enhance your home to sell or to better your living space for personal use, we can help design and build exactly what you are looking for.
Please view the gallery below outlining some of our renovation projects:
Water damage repair, Waitsfield, VT
Water had been getting behind the existing deck for a while and created significant structural damage to the house. The majority of the water damage effected the large structural header above the garage door. The center of the header had deflected nearly 4" from its initial install to the time we go to it. In order to properly make this repair, the entire building had to be jacked up using the creation of a second, much stronger header and 6"x6" pressure treated posts. After the 2nd floor was completely lifted from the 1st, we were able to install a new engineered header where the existing damaged header was located and then were able to lower the 2nd floor back into the first floor. In addition to this work, several other damaged structural members were replaced, a sliding glass door was removed, two new Integrity casement windows were installed and the entire elevation was resided.
