Sneak peak while I'm away as to some of the finish details at our #queenelizabethdrive project and it's finished kitchen! @alliemgrimes got the clients on board with a bold blue for the cabinetry and we got them to allow us to replicate the dining rooms stained oak beams on here. Been a while since I've had the time to think about (and enjoy) the final product and not be zoned into the start of the next transformation! Thanks to all the team for helping pull this one off!

Guess what we're doing today? Hint. It starts with u and ends with nderpinning ... nobody likes it. And it involves many separate engineers and many separate site visits from them, but this old house has no footers and needs them to support our modern new addition. This will be done in 3 separate pours, all signed off by the engineers. You dont mess around with digging out under a house without talking to your engineers. It's been a few year since we last hand dug an underpin like this, but we're super excited to be really starting to roll on this project! Stay tuned for progress here!

How do you start an estimate? As much of my work is on a computer screen these days I cant help but print things out first. It seems almost too engrained in my habits to stop. This all moves into our software after to be turned into a estimate and proposal and then tracked through the construction process. Green is framing. Yellow is masonry or foundation. Another set will highlight trim and finishes. Notes or questions are in red. Ect. It's not toolbelts on every day, but certainly makes the process of building and renovating that much easier! #projectmanagement #notes #materialtakeoff #keepcraftalive #themoderncraftsman #builder #renovation
Happy Sunday from apprentice ryan! Keeping it safe and helping knock some to do list items off @chels.fulton list of unfinished home items. #keepcraftalive #themoderncraftsman #apprentice #shopday

So this happened today... I'm told this is around an 800 lbs set of stairs. And after volunteering to help carry and lift, I'd say that seems accurate. Beautiful work by Jake and his crew at @campbellswoodcraft on this and cant wait to see the railing installed.
