Porch Restoration

Restored the porch on this 1795 bed & breakfast in Ashfield, Massachusetts.
The Inn at Norton Hill is located across from Elmer's Store on Norton Hill Road in the center of the village.

Filming Studio Renovation

This is a barn in Buckland, Mass that was formerly used for apple storage, which we converted to a filming studio. The renovation included new siding, windows, doors, roof trim and decks on the exterior. The interior renovation included a new kitchen, bath, open studio, stairway, horizontal shiplap pine on the walls, as well as a sixty foot beam and several posts to support the existing roof framing.

Custom home construction

A new house that myself and two other carpenters built during the summer and fall of 2008 in Western Mass.

Cape renovation

In the summer of 2007, I began working as lead carpenter on a cape renovation in Greenfield, Massachusetts. The contractor/homeowner decided to gut the 19th century cape, create two additions (master bedroom and entry), and to renovate the original structure based on a 1695 cape in Williamsburg, VA. The exterior trim details that were replicated include the beaded clapboards, decorative end-blocks at the base of the gable trim, 8/4 frieze board that serves as the head casing for the windows, and the dental blocks trimmed with crown moulding that are applied to the face of the frieze.
