GARAFRAXA ST SALON AND SPA RENOVATION | JCB AND SONS
Brick's are starting to go back on the west wall over the new lintels!!
We had to bring our tractor down to move skids of brick.
New steel formed C channel and our new triple lintels which are also welded
for added strength to carry the structural load of the triple brick wall
over the door opening in the west wall
We had to make some structural repairs on the corners of the building.
The damage we found created by adding a door in a triple brick wall and not installing
any lintels in the west wall.
Water damage to the windows meant some more repair work.
After removing the unwanted windows we began installing new 2" x 4" spruce girts with
sill gasket between the brick and the lumber. This has been a task as the
wall waves in and out over 2".

Cutting the brick, getting ready for repairs! We had a busy day today. The back of the building is in need of a lot of work after removing the old addition which was in very bad shape. The brick needed to be cut so we can prepare for repairs to the brick and the new steel siding.
WEST GREY GARAFRAXA ST SALON AND SPA RENOVATION BEGINS | JCB and SONS
The lower portion is the front of the Commercial Space, the upper portion is an Apartment.
This is the entrance to the Commercial Space
There was an addition removed from the back and a lot of brick repair work needed.
As you can see we have already started replacing the old rotten fascia and soffit. You can see the new fascia board and look outs added to give strength to the roof eave.
There were no steel lintels installed over openings and as you can see there is cracking.
The patio door will be removed here as structural repairs to the triple brick wall over the patio door are necessary due to the condition of the brick.
