A November project to give the entry from the garage a place for boots, hats and coats. Never had a project quite like this before. Pretty complicated, facing fore and aft with different functions, and straddling steps as well. And then a little add-on for early December.

I have photos from two very long projects, one still ongoing, and it's daunting to think of selecting photos to post, so here are shots from a just completed, bite-sized project: a powder room packed into a hallway.

From an ongoing project I hope to post lots more pictures of. Wind uplift of the porch roof is a particular concern at the site, so I conceived of this detail to firmly resist that force. Blocks of 5/4 vinyl plank are lag-bolted to the post bottoms, then lagged down through the decking into the frame. The posts thus anchored stood firm with no bracing.

(The decking is white cedar with a penetrating sealer applied. )

The old skylight was cracked and, because of the inadequate framing, the sheathing had sagged, a gap had opened and in the winter let snowmelt in, making a general mess of the ceiling below. I’m too old for roofing; I was too old for roofing in my forties. But I fixed it.
