Structural Dry Rot Fix on Deck


The support beams on this deck were seriously rotted. This was a dangerous situation.

Consider It Done Construction was able to solve the problem by shortening the beams and bringing in the support posts. 

Check it out! It looks like it has always been in perfect condition. 
The best part? The square footage of the deck above wasn't changed!

Bathroom Floor (with dry rot)

Doesn't that look nice?

The original flooring was no longer bonded to the floor, and was peeling up. 
So, we removed the toilet, fixed the dry rot, and replaced the flooring.

From another angle.

It sure needed replacing!

Small Kitchen Renovation

This is the result of a 'light' kitchen remodel involving paint, countertops, new appliances and fixtures, lighting, and tile backsplash. Here's what we did: 

This is what we started with. 

 We removed the upper cabinet, which was blocking the view into the family room. Wow, that really opened up the kitchen.

Next, we repaired the ceiling, painted the cabinets, brought in an electrician to update the lighting, and prepped the area for the countertop guys. 

There's the beauty shot again.
Notice: The stove is no longer a cooktop, the vent hood is now a microwave/vent hood combo, and the eat-bar area has been extended. Oh, and that sweet cabinet door modification with glass fronts!

Remove and Replace Deck and Railing

This funky multi-tiered deck was dry rot damaged, and not very functional. 

Consider It Done started by removing it. 

There it is...a large, functional backyard deck. 
Bring on the BBQ!

The new deck design looks like it's always been here.

This young family is going to get a lot of use out of this new deck!

Adding a Shower

Just beyond the toilet here, we're going to put in a shower. 

Notice the shower pan is in...
We captured a hall closet to do this project. That's the entry just beyond the framing. 
This was ready for the plumbing contractor to do his magic.

What a great improvement for this master bathroom!

Rot: Custom Wood Siding Repair

We've removed the gutter, prior to demo on the rotted wood. 

Consider It Done Construction custom milled the wood onsite, so it matched perfectly. 

The flashing between the new and old wood prevents moisture from getting in there and creating an issue in the future. 
Once the customer paints this, it'll be perfect.

Wooden Backyard Fencing

This is the fence line where the new fence will be built. 

Ta Da! How's that for a home improvement?

The backyard view before the fence. 

After new fencing. What a difference.
