Steady Progress

Back to our big renovation project. Great progress is being made, and the small details are being ironed out with the contracting team, the designer and the homeowner. Communication is always key in a project like this, and never more so than at this stage.

The front porch is really taking shape! The pergola-covered open area will make a much more inviting entrance to the beautiful home. The hefty upper beams used for the pergola are an appropriate weight and scale to go with the structure of the home, and the bead board ceiling in the covered portion of the porch is a wonderfully traditional treatment.



The stucco men have done a great job in renovated exterior areas of matching the heavy finish of the rest of the house.

LOTS of new duct work for the HVAC system. And the majority of the plumbing and electrical is tucked inside the walls.

It won't be long before we start to see drywall go up, and that's always a great leap-ahead day! The contractor is smiling at this job...gotta be a good sign!
