Construction Can Take Place Any Season
A lot of homeowners ask us if it’s possible to build an addition in the winter time. The short answer is that it takes planning and execution. This past year we completed a major project during the winter months, and here are photos to show a chronological history:
Existing house before construction began
Deconstructing the old lean-to addition
Wall framing of the downstairs sunroom
Roof framing for second story begun
The plastic enclosure to protect the house during second-story construction. Neighbors wondered if we were building some kind of a tower!
The plastic comes off and the addition exterior is revealed.
Addition completed and ready for years of enjoyment.
The addition was only part of the total remodel that took place in this grand historic home. We also completed the following:
- New patio with stained brushed concrete
- New concrete retaining wall
- New gable roof entryway
- Driveway reconfigured and poured in stained brushed concrete
- Removal of all vinyl siding
- New Hardie and Cedar siding
- New period-appropriate columns on front porch
- New custom windows to match original windows
- New period-appropriate custom front door and window trim
- New colors and paint
- New home office and kitchen extension
- Updated kitchen
- New main floor sunroom
- Dining room crown molding
- New second-floor master bedroom, bathroom, and walk-in closet
- Updated second-floor family bathroom
