Full rebuild structural out to crown down post replacement/repair all bases were replaced. The screen was beyond repair so the client had me make new out of sapele all dominoes and glued. Super awesome people to work with he worked on his days off with me stripping paint and and prepping the areas that wernt replaced or repaired.

It’s enjoyable to see passion in them. The roof is getting replaced and next year we build the original railing on the roof. Thanks guys
