Rot on Post

Just the lower portion of the post was affected. 

Consider It Done Construction removed the dry rot and replaced it with good wood.

Replacing Rotted Post

In wet climates, the bottom of posts tend to rot. This one needed to be replaced.

The home owner will paint the new post as soon as the rains stop.

Porch Railing

This customer requested railing on this porch.

After.

This house also had a nearby entry, so we added matching railing there, too. 

After.

Stair Replacement

These stairs were rotting. Consider It Done Construction dismantled and hauled away the old steps and decking.

Then, we rebuilt the stairs and decking in the same footprint, using treated wood and screw fasteners. We were able to save the customer money by re-using the existing handrails.

Small Back Porch Stairs

 The deck had shifted 3 inches, the top was rotten, and so was one of the posts.

In about a day, Consider It Done Construction, dismantled and hauled away the old structure, then re-built it.

New Front Porch


No way to save this porch. The rot was everywhere.


The customer wanted a bigger front porch. (Notice Mike's job-dog busily at work) A sub-contractor built the new foundation under the porch. Consider It Done Construction coordinated the sub-contractor while milling custom posts to approximate the original ones. Because the scale of the finished porch was bigger, the post brackets were slightly enlarged. CIDC also coordinated the new roofing for the porch, (and the roofing on the rest of the house). Broken windows were fixed instead of replaced because they were fairly new double-paned vinyl windows.
CIDC did the exterior painting. Hard to believe it's the same house.
