Exterior Update with Energy Cost Savings
We’re thrilled to share this stunning rejuvenation of a circa 1960s home! The homeowner’s vision was to honor the original design by the architect, and we went above and beyond to preserve every detail, while incorporating modern materials.
This beautiful home has been meticulously restored to stand the test of time, ensuring it will live on for another 65+ years.
The Numbers:
Scope:
Remove and replace all thirty-two windows with new Andersen 400 Series Energy Star new construction windows. Remove and replace all original clapboard siding with new James Hardie, Hardie Plank siding. This includes trimming all new windows with Azek pvc trim, as well as custom fabricating new pvc trim to match original home’s details.
Budget: $135,000.00
There were some surprises, as there always are, but this was above average. We discovered an extensive amount of rot and decay to structural members of the home. Specifically, the beam that the elevated deck was attached to. We had to detach the deck temporarily to make the structural repairs. There were also some upgrades that were selected and additional scope added, as there always is. This included upgrading the windows to have an energy star rating, and new shutters to finish off the vintage aesthetic. Here is a breakdown of some of the high cost items:
Rot Mitigation $9,882.00
Windows $38,881.00
Siding $14,507.00
Schedule: Start date - 08/26/2024 Completion Date - 12/30/2024
It is worth noting that this project was performed with a two-man crew due to the location. This is approximately twice as long as a project like this should take.
