**★★★★★ — East Portland Sash, Nov. 2017**

> It took me over a decade of working in the field to find the very best in class and to find the finest craftspeople in the the preservation trades working on the West Coast. When I witness a master, I am compelled to pronounce the achievement. Andy is gifted with this talent.
>
> Andy Curtis, of Full Circa, Inc. is the premier expert in the Historic Preservation and Restoration category for Residential contracting.
> In addition to professional service and the highest quality of execution, they’re great to work with. I always qualify a recommendation based on whether or not the outfit is one that I would hire to work on my family’s projects, and without hesitation Full Circa gets that award!
>

**★★★★★ — Sundeleaf Painting, Feb. 2015**

> Andy Curtis of Full Circa, Inc. is the most knowledgeable person I know when it comes to dealing expertly with the renovation, repair, restoration and remodeling of older homes. We have overlapped with Andy during the course of numerous projects and have come to see him as the benchmark for blending historical accuracy with fine craftsmanship, detail, and excellence (ensuring a long-lasting product).
>
> One of the unique traits of Full Circa, Inc. is that they do not only work on large-scale projects, but apply the same level of excellence to smaller-scale needs, like dry rot repair. And yet, if you need an entire home restored, inside and out, they are more than capable.
>
> I also am consistently amazed by how Andy is able to use historical accuracy to blend the lines during addition and remodeling projects, seamlessly connecting the remodeled areas of a home to the original, historic portions of the building. The restoration is beautiful, but still perfectly matches the surrounding structure.
>
> We always look forward to new projects with Full Circa, Inc.!

## Community Q&A

**Q: Dimensions** *(in Photo Questions)*

What are the floor dimensions for this shed?

A: 128 Sq. Ft.

**Q: Rough sawn siding** *(in Photo Questions)*

Can you tell me what species and also what stain is used for the siding?

A: Pacific Northwest Douglas Fir treated with Nelsonite clear large dimension lumber stabilizer &quot;rocket fuel from Chicago&quot;.

**Q: Style** *(in Design Dilemma)*

I'm not 100% sure what style of house mine actually is.  I was told that it was an italianate style home.  It was built in 1885.  If I could get some more information on the style and also some exterior design ideas that would be much appreciated.  Thanks

A: This looks like an American Four Square, though interestingly, it doesn't have the front-facing dormer characteristic of these homes. Typically, Four Squares have two or more evenly spaced windows on the front elevation of the second floor. The first floor front elevation door and windows are also fairly evenly spaced, but not necessarily matching the placement of the second story. It appears that the front elevation of your home was altered at some point, replacing the front elevation second floor windows with a single centered one. It's possible the first floor was changed too, but I can't tell for sure. A good place to start with your exterior design would be to re-establish a more typical window pattern on the second floor. Even better if you can find evidence of their location by pulling back some of the siding. Here's a good resource for photos of Four Squares across the US:

**Q: POLL: Adding to a Historic Home — Make it Modern or Recreate the Past?** *(in Polls)*

If adding on to a traditional home or structure, do you prefer a design that makes the new addition clearly stand out as a modern element, or would you rather it honor the home's roots and blend in to look like the original structure? 

Vote for your pick then tell us why in the comments below (photos encouraged)!

A: The Secretary of the Interior has a published set of guidelines regarding the preservation and rehabilitation of historic property. Our company utilizes these to guide our work on historic properties. The guidelines call for compatible additions and a differentiation of new from old. We interpret this to mean something as small as a differentiation in materials or something as big as a modern addition. Both of the above options are equally interesting.
