FROM THE JOB SITE

ROTTED WOOD REPAIR

Rotted wood can often be repaired for a fraction of the cost of replacing
entire window or doors unit.

Here's an example of a rotted window sill on a vintage house (circa 1906)
that I recently repaired.

Entryways are also prone to rotted wood damage. The following series
of photos shows a rotted wood repair I recently completed on the front
entryway of a more modern house. Replacing the entire unit would have
cost thousands of dollars more than the repair!

The first photo shows the rotted wood damage caused by rainwater seeping
past cracked caulking and collecting at bottom near the door threshold.

The next photo was taken after the rotted wood was completely removed.

The new, replacement wood was coated to repel water damage, fastened with stainless steel screws and laminated to the original solid wood.

This last picture shows how the entryway looked good as new after
the rotted wood was been replaced and painted.

The leaking caulk was also repaired to protect against future wood rot.




BUILT IN MY SHOP


The custom items pictured below were designed and built in my shop.

Custom Barn Door Vanity

Barn Door Vanity

This custom barn door vanity was designed to fit into a
unique space where a commercially available vanity
would not fit. Made entirely from recycled materials,
it includes a sliding barn door (left) as well as a
secondary door (shown on the right) for access
under the vanity.

The counter top is faux marble made from a recycled
wood product and protected from water
with several coats of polyurethane.




Custom Audio-Visual Shelves

AV Shelf       AV Shelf

These two "floating" shelves are attached to the wall behind the TV.
The upper shelf houses the VCR while the sound bar for
the TV rests on the lower shelf,

This arrangement results in no wires being visible
while viewing the TV.




Custom Pine Bookshelf

Child's Bookcase

This custom bookshelf was produced for a child's room. It's constructed
of white pine veneer over furniture-grade plywood for both
strength and beauty. The height of the top shelf is
adjustable to accommodate various size books.

This custom plant stand is made of furniture-grade oak plywood.

This MidCentury plant stand is made of southern yellow pine for
strength and protected with multiple coats of polyurethane for
