Week 5 (10/26/09)

It felt like lots of work got done this week. Monday after work I tore off part of the front siding in anticipation of the porch framing going up. Much of the back siding also came off in order to repair rotted trim around three large double windows.

 

 

While the massing of the porch was changing the feel of the front of the house, the contractor began working on many of the details at the back sunroom. Radiant tubing was placed in the floor before pouring the concrete; wood beadboard was added between the exposed rafter tails; and 4x10 sheets of Hardi-board siding were installed (eventually they will add batton strips for a board-and-batten look).
