Excited to celebrate a local hero and fellow woodworker Eric Hollenbeck (Blue Ox Millworks)at the Eureka Theater tonight. It’s the premier of his show on Discovery+ and the Magnolia Network. If you look closely you may spy our company logo sported by Ryan Barlow. It’s always an honor to preserve and restore our local historic home but getting to do that work and gain some recognition for our trades is even better.

Almost there! Working on the last side! We tucked our traditional time capsule into the last piece of siding. It’s got the date and everyone’s name on it. But if you want more details you’ll have to buy the house and crack the wall open.

Done with side two and closing in on side three!

The customers are excited to have the additional fire protection from this cementitious siding and the metal roof.
