AFTER
This porch was basically sound, but needed some wood consolidation and new steps, railings, and lattice panels to keep it in good working order.
BEFORE
The new lattice panels match the house better than the old diagonal ones.
Some floor boards were replaced; others were consolidated with wood epoxy.
Rotted stiles were also epoxied.
IN PROGRESS
New steps were framed with green-treated lumber
Posts are placed in a three foot hole to counteract frost lift.
