Without writing up the entire process right now, here’s a quick collage of the rebuilt side porch, with a quick wave 👋 to the awful car-eater bottom of the driveway, which has also been rebuilt in time for winter in Ohio.
Clockwise, from top left: The cracked side porch, which was built in 1927; The dust being kicked up by the concrete saw; The workman in the cold room, shoring it up so it will support the new porch surface; The new porch, view 1; The new base of the driveway; The new porch, view 2. Still to be done: the wrought iron railings around the porch.
