Deb and Jeff called us to repair the concrete work on their wraparound front porch. Their 1920′s home is north of Oregon State University in the historic district. The home is a Craftsman style home and has elements of the California Bungalow style. Deb provided us with the design and dimensions to keep with the home’s historic character.

The project began with demolition of the concrete porch slab, stairs and sidewalks. We then worked to match the historic finishes in our newly poured concrete stairs, slabs, and caps for the stair wing walls. We also replaced the historic columns, fixed the handrails and poured new sidewalks.

By working with the homeowners, Deb and Jeff, we were able to upgrade the porch by adding hidden wiring, improve the home’s appearance, upgrade the seismic connections and stay true to the historic character of their home.
