The decorative rafter tails on the porch roof were custom cut to match those on the existing Victorian-era house.
This is an example of a victorian porch design in DC Metro.

The farmhouse has a contemporary design element by keeping the lines simple and the trim details large to fit the scale of the building and the open space. Note the metal caps on the exposed rafter tails adds a custom treatment for this magnificent home

Damage noted at the lap siding and trim, at the roof sheathing, to the rafter tail caused by uncontrollable exterior moisture sources. RECOMMENDATION: Remove trim as necessary.

The homeowners were ready to renovate this basement to add more living space for the entire family. Before, the basement was used as a playroom, guest room and dark laundry room! In order to give the illusion of higher ceilings, the acoustical ceiling tiles were removed and everything was painted white.
