Contractors put in the brick walkway. Forester Moulding and Lumber replicates the porch railings and balusters. Also, new security and sprinkler systems are installed, and lighting is added to the porch.
The restoration of the front porch continues with workers putting the decking down and replacing the old columns. In addition, anti-termite control stations are placed in the yard.
Bob meets the owners of the sixth Elmwood neighborhod project house and reviews the proposed portico plans. Built in 1892, the Victorian home needs a new front porch.
