We fully gutted it out and Cleaned it up
Shoring it up so Aunty Home is strong enough to still be standing
The damaged material has been cleared away and the affected section is being rebuilt from the structural framing outward. New lumber forms the floor platform, support posts, wall studs and header, restoring strength to the section that was compromised.
Next we are onto exterior plywood/sheathing, pressure-treated lumber as needed, hurricane ties/straps and structural fasteners, house wrap/weather barrier, flashing and waterproof sealant, roofing/eave materials, exterior siding, and materials for the stairs/railings. After the structure is sealed from the weather, you can move on to insulation, interior wall panels, flooring, trim and paint.
Long day Good NIght
