" Last week we still had a road intent of this twentieth century you really rental real estate right that's right now you get lifted. Remove is I guess this lab with asphalt tile floors look at this level come up and become -- and is this the original facade you suppose we expose the original brick in this is actually an original window -- that have been closed that for many years to me. Going to restore the ceiling got to a pox on a new parts aren't -- what happened to the brick here. Well then the previous owner had try to remove the paint using sand blasting his message and this is probably years of lime and whitewash and the like. Right and that's a big don't know any time -- anti masonry you don't hit it was -- now we would typically try water pressure something death rates this yet. What's going -- the top here where the siding stillness where they had that removed the original worktable brick for the water course brick and we've got replicate those that put them back in and the siding will shed right over your top of the brick and the water. Table brick is slanted so the water physically. And runs off yeah now what we've got left over here do you suppose this is original structural timber from it. To the original -- yeah we've taken all the other -- softened and left there there were the original framing that'll give me. Funny how they let the joists -- into that carrying beam in the middle right there that three but four joists are real typical for Charleston porch marvelous well let's go up top and look at it close. The -- we found underneath the house stored away ports and around we're reusing them so Aniston Lisa tells you how high does the portico would have been Bryant gives us a lot that about the styled house that the federal style sure how many what is the layout with the -- media. Well we've got the two half columns against the house that is what I used to be. Pile Astra and four columns out front they'll be twin double columns so this'll be right over here didn't. We're real lucky we have just enough railing three -- on this is a profile. Of the Saxon what kind of wood is it this is long leaf pine which this. Was typically what they would use -- this period. This is also mean this is new pressure treated southern yellow pine right but it looks big difference he concede that the whip in the growth rings here is a very fast growing tree words this was very slow growing that's maybe fifty years this is virgin forest grasses commercially ground right. Wow now where does this go -- together well put all the columns were -- but the received. The actual railing just like that. And even the balusters -- pickets where. -- and what is lieutenant enemies into the ground yet. And you get the spacing already -- that part of the archaeology is all done. We'll use that same system wonderful -- these are about ten feet high. And you know at least up to the top what it should look like but what about the roof how did you design that well we had to do some research in the Kendall pattern books and -- what would be appropriate -- that an emphasis what we've drawn. -- So this is that the top of the column down here right and that starts the publisher of the cornice. Wonderful this is the in tablet sure this is the actual roof Brian this is what you called Arafat right. And the path that helps when you have a flat fairly flat roof to give it up feel about a railing or about struck let's go up and see how you're going to build that."

" Hey this is great out here we must be what 2030 feet off the ground yet that's. Not so nice to get this close up to the foundation of the beside William Peter. And look at these feeling I had noticed these these this pair of brackets way up there in other hand car Cyprus brackets. They're really quite ornate."

" Gable end up above that's all original right. It is and you can see this hard line where there was the porch to had been added onto in the 1880s that he produced. The so that the the first floor porch of as we've just seen and a second story to it was added later problem. It was nice that we're restoring the facade to the original proportions to. And here we have the parent fits right in it's that he can see it's basically a stud wall -- is about sixteen inches high and eighteen maybe all built that a pressure treated lumber depth. And whatever cheating going on now. And then around the corner here you can see this is the capital of molding now you have to have that milk -- but it was a stock item at a local lumber store yeah. In this cap that goes on top of the parent that to shed water we have sought this here on the site with a table saw and then use the electric plain bread -- and -- most of it is just. Job built right here on site right. Wonderful and -- This cove molding. What disco. That this is here from -- it's that it. Right and plates and plates and -- there an additional molding that goes well there will be of this and this cap would just go on top. That's pretty simple actually. Now since you're making at all the PTA help pressure treated lumber you have to wait a long time before you can put up. Code made out of our standard procedures to let this whether a little bit forward prime and paint yeah let this weather for -- that stuff right. Now the other am noticing -- there's copper roofing around the perimeter what you can see from the street. But appeared to get rubber roof. Well we felt that when necessary to use the expense and expense material copper on this in her porch area so we use the copper where you see it. Where we need it makes a lot of sense."
