The Shop Under Renovation


Simplistic Elegance

The renovation of a 1796 Colonial bathroom required extensive framing inside the existing walls and floor to accommodate dead loads and adequate insulation.
A 24" wide Eastern White Pine sheathing board is reclaimed to add a simple old charm feeling to the room. The floors, also of reclaimed material removed originally from the ceiling, were sanded and finished to look 200 years old.
A European Shower valve is the center piece of the room truly a beautiful asset.

Welcome to The Maplewood

The beautiful contrast of copper on a black roof

The Maplewood B&B



The Maplewood Inn has  had a face lift this summer.  These are a few pictures of the job.

The Flat roof on the third floor received a new rubber membrane with new flashing for the chimney and an attic fan to vent the flat surface. 


Joshua tearing out the built-in gutter system with its many layers of metal and tar.  The trim and framing was replaced around the entire house.

The new copper is slightly pitched to eliminate the old gutter detail and the potential problems of ice jambs in the winter.
