This page is here to document the repairs and improvments made to the house we moved into in early 2016. ( We also had one for our previous home ) We use it to share images and documents with contractors for bids and repairs. Hopefully, it'll serve as a nice archive of the effort we've put into improving this home. If you have any questions, please free free to contact me.
Paint Exterior - February 5th, 2018
Exterior Repairs - February, 2018
Chimney Repair - September 2018
During the process of painting the house we discovered that a previous repair to the chimney had been done improperly. The flashing had been cut into and the seals between the base boards and siding were causing a leak into the attic.
Exterior Paint (After) - August 2018
We hired a contractor to paint the exterior of the house and repair any exterior wood damage. It took a little over a week to paint the exterior and trim. The paint contractor allerted us to an issue with the deck surface peeling from previous work. Because deck had been painted using a "Rustoleum Deck Restore" product and our contractor would not guarantee the work done on top of this product. So we've opted to strip both decks and stain them. We managed to strip the paint from the entire upper deck using elbow grease and belt sanders.
- Paint:
- Brand: Sherwin Williams Duration Satin Exterior
- Exterior: Grizzle Grey ( SW 7068 )
- Trim: Pewter Tankard ( SW 0023 )

Chimney Repair (After) - October 2018
Our contractor removed the entire chase (chimney) and much of the roofing around where the leak was discovered. It was rebuilt using treated pine lumber, cement board, and cedar siding. The chimney cap is in good condition. The siding is layered over the cement board to reduce the risks of any further leaks. New shingles and flashing were installed. Any interior roofing and trusses with water damage were replaced.
