Save the barn you have: straighten, reinforce, re-roof, re-side and bring old buildings back to a working, handsome life.
An old barn is a piece of history and often a bargain waiting to be saved. Restoration starts with an honest evaluation: what is sound, what is failing and what it will take to make the barn safe and useful. Common work includes replacing rotted posts and sills, straightening and bracing frames, repairing or replacing roofs and siding, and rebuilding doors.
We respect original character where we can, using salvaged boards, original timbers and period details, and we use modern fasteners, flashing and roofing where it helps the barn last. When a building is beyond saving, we say so, and we can help you replace it with a new barn that carries on its character.
