CARGILL - BROCKTON | SUNROOM ADDITION SIDING PREP, INSULATION AND DRYWALL
Cargill - Brockton | Sunroom addition siding prep, insulation and drywall
We installed an aluminum flashing over the foundation wall lapped with blueskin flashing tape, which is covered by the Pressure Treated ledger board for the future decks and then another aluminum flashing lapping all the previous work is installed and also covered in blueskin to ensure adequate water drainage in the rain screen layer.
The strapping has been completed on the addition to create a rain screen / ventilated cavity behind the siding, 16” o.c. vertical strapping then strapped 12” o.c. horizontally in preparation for the Maibec Board and Batten siding.
The wiring rough in was completed by Tim Wells Electric. The addition was insulated by Martin’s Insulation with polyurethane closed cell spray foam. Achieving an R-28 wall and R-50 ceiling. They sprayed from the footings to the peak of the roof, including capping any of the interior double brick wall and foundation to stop thermal bridging.
We installed 1/2” CGC drywall board in the sunroom with Trim Tex drywall corner beads. All supplied to us by Welbeck Sawmill.
The addition has been taped, and the cover coat ran on all the tapes and corners, screws have all been spotted a second time.
The addition has now been skim coated with our 12” Columbia box and the screw spotted a third coat, we have skimmed out the neo angles at the ceilings with our 8” Columbia box, and we came back over all the joints with a final skim coat with our 14” Columbia box.
We have sanded out all the drywall with our sander hooked to a dust extractor to minimize the dust and have now primed the drywall with primer supplied by Farlow’s Home Hardware. Can’t wait for our windows, doors and skylights to arrive!
BERKELEY - CHATSWORTH | ECO LOG HOME RAISING THE ROOF & DORMERS
Berkeley - Chatsworth | Eco Log Home raising the roof & dormers. We completed all the roof framing and dormers. We also installed all the roof buildups and roof insulation for the home.
2”x6” dormer walls set and ceiling joists placed on 16” centers.
Laying out for the collar ties that will be installed.
Because of the time of year the openings were tarped every night to keep the snow out of the home.
JCB getting pieces laid out and cut for the guys as they get the dormers framed up.
First half of the roof completed and ready for the future steel roofing.
Walls set on the second half of the roof for the last 2 dormers going on.
We are a family business and everyone pitches in. Alisha came in to help make sure our site stayed safe and clean for us.
The hemlock ceiling boards where all left long until the end on the gables. This allowed us to snap a perfectly straight chalk line to cut them too. We were able to manipulate the 4” x 10” trusses then to follow our perfect line keeping the ends very straight and clean looking.
The roof was made up of multiple layers. First the 1” x 6” hemlock ceiling boards went down. Then a synthetic roofing membrane was installed with ice and water shield in the valleys. Next we installed two layers of Styrorail insulation. A base layer of 3” SR.P200 Graphite which can’t stay exposed to any sunlight and then a second layer of 3.5” SR.Radiant+ which has a vapour barrier reflective membrane laminated to it. All layers have offset joints which where taped with Tuck Tape sheathing tape. We then cover the valleys & dormers with an additional layer of GRACE Ice and Water Shield HT. Finally all this is covered with a layer of 2x4 sheathing installed @ 16” o.c. for the new steel roofing.
Over the balconies at the gable ends and the porches we used a 2x8 rafter build up to match the 6-1/2” of insulation and then installed the 2x4 sheathing over top of them @ 16”o.c.
Completed jack rafters forming the valleys of the home with collar ties installed to prevent any uplift or separation from the roof peak.
We pulled some large tarps over the home at the completion of our work to leave the home ready for the new steel roof install.
WEST GREY, ONTARIO | PRICEVILLE HERITAGE LOG HOME ADDITION & RENOVATION
West Grey, Ontario | Priceville Heritage Log Home Addition & Renovation. We installed this horizontal red engineered wood siding for our customer on this project. We made and installed all the aluminum trims for this project as well. A synthetic membrane was installed on the roof for our customers chosen roofing contractor. All the windows and doors were supplied and installed by us. They were flashed with typar flashing tapes to insure a waterproof finish that will last decades.
The existing porch was kept and modified to tie into the new addition as well as extended to offer protection to the logs of the log home.
The log home had a fantastic view from the second floor, so we installed these apex shaped windows in the gable wall of the home to take advantage of it. It was one of our favourite features.
John Manville AP foil-faced 1” foam sheathing was used for the wall sheathing to provide continuous insulation over the whole addition. Providing and R-28 wall with the Rockwool batt insulation.
Prior to the install of strapping and siding we installed new Typar weather protection barrier over the existing exterior walls to protect the homes exterior.
The walls were all strapped with 1” strapping to create an air space behind all the new siding.
All the windows and doors were clad with aluminum trims we manufactured on site and installed prior to siding installation.
