2”x6” dormer walls set and ceiling joists placed on 16” centers.

Because of the time of year the openings were tarped every night to keep the snow out of the home.

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.

We took the time to drywall the ceiling in the addition prior to insulating.  We than had 2" of foam insulation sprayed over the drywall, potlights, speakers, etc.  We will top this up with cellulose to achieve an R-50 in the addition attic.  This ensures an airtight seal around all the fixtures and against the exposed brick wall between the old home and the addition.

We added this Pent Roof over the living room window which looked out of place prior to the renovation because it was added later and not trimmed the same.  All the openings in the brick have arches except this one.  This added an element of curve to this window, it should also tie in well with the future porch around the addition.

The addition foundation was cement block and leaked badly all the time, especially in the spring or after rains.  We excavated around the foundation to waterproof it.  We pressure washed the old foundation as well so the waterproofing would bond to a clean surface.

During excavating we found the missing well, which is illegal as it was below grade and would have run off going in the exposed well head.  The cement block foundation had a lot of cracks.  We V'd them out with a diamond blade and filled them with non-shrink grout which was than coated with fibreglass resin by MBS prior to tarring it.
