Listen
We record comfort issues, leaks, storm timing, maintenance concerns and the qualities you want to preserve.
Chapter 01 / Our approach
Look first. Draw second.
The visit is an exterior reading: water paths, aging patterns, proportions, previous repairs and the details that give the house its character.
Sequence
A restoration in six deliberate moves.
The sequence keeps design decisions connected to field evidence and gives homeowners clear checkpoints before work advances.
Survey
Roof planes, penetrations, siding courses, trim, windows, grade and drainage are reviewed from safe accessible locations.
Document
Photographs map conditions by elevation and distinguish maintenance, wear, installation defects and probable storm effects.
Compose
We develop a coordinated palette, profiles and transition details—not a disconnected product list.
Build
Crews work from written scope and checkpoint photos, with protection and daily housekeeping planned.
Close
A final walk, maintenance calendar and project record remain with the house.
What we measure
Performance hides in transitions.
A durable exterior depends on details that are often concealed: kick-out flashing, sill pans, head flashing, counterflashing, underlayment laps, ventilation paths and clearances above grade.
Clarity
What your project record contains.
A useful record should still make sense years later.
Condition map
Elevation-based photographs and plain-language observations.
Selection schedule
Manufacturer, profile, color, finish and approved substitutions.
Closeout file
Warranty documents, care notes, final photos and remaining material details.
