Dry Rot & More

BEFORE
The homeowner wanted to change the back door on their home and had always felt like the original install was not done very well.

BEFORE
During our initial inspection, there were some obvious signs that there would be some water issues. Notice the failing caulking where the trim meets the siding, the broken pieces of siding, and the mushrooms growing around the door.

BEFORE
It was no surprise that the inside of the home had some obvious signs of water penetration as well…

BEFORE
Bigger questions arose once the entire back side of the home was inspected.

DURING
The original siding and windows were not installed properly and there was water penetrating through to the sheathing in multiple areas. As a result, there were dry rot issues that needed to be addressed.

DURING
Upon further inspection, it was determined that the windows needed to be pulled and reset correctly, and the home would receive new house wrap and new siding on the sides where the issues were predominant.

DURING
With a trustworthy house wrap system in place, we were getting ready for the new siding to go up.

DURING
While the back of the home was exposed, it was a good time to add the patio cover that the homeowner had always wanted.

DURING
The new hardi siding was looking good!

AFTER
The entire home was ready for a new paint job.

DURING
The new color scheme is coming along.

AFTER
Time to clean up and re-hang the light fixtures!
