July 15 – Ben at work in the Assistant Keepers

After the porches had become a safety hazard and were removed, it left a trailing downspout that directed water onto the side of the building. We’ve had numerous projects to replace the damage — repairs to the basement foundation, rebuilt the basement window & window frame, restored other damaged windows and last year’s project to sister in new wood for rotten joists. Over the winter, volunteer Steve Redding custom milled the needed hardwood for the flooring and Cathy found a millwork company to replicate the trim. Now Ben’s at work installing.
