Elmwood Neighborhood Project

Front Porch and Bathroom (HA1121)

New roof and sidewall shingles, and front porch work are the focus of Bob's next project at the home of Robert and Krystal Emanuel. The construction team is hard at work applying the Georgia Pacific roofing shingles. Bob talks to Homer Earle from the Cedar Shake & Shingle Bureau and Johannes Boonstra from Sikkens about the sidewall shingles before joining Ryley in installing them. Out front, the porch columns are being stripped, and landscape and hardscape work gets underway. Bob takes a tour of the Architectural Brass shop with Steve Moore, who is doing the new fixtures for the front door.
