White House of the Confederacy Porch is almost complete

One of the difficulties of using reclaimed lumber is finding quality pieces that have no knots. After delays due to rain, snow, and tracking down quality lumber... we are almost complete.


We wrapped the deck around the columns.




When we first started the project, we noticed that the old decking was bowing in the middle. It was revealed that the framing was too far apart to support the decking like it should be. We added 2x6 joists to keep the deck from warping.
