Leon points with pride at his new wall.
Stucco matches the old work exactly |
Pebble mix thrown on, just like 1898. |
Old wall is falling apart due to water infiltration. Wall had several patches through the years, which showed real bad. We tore it off and replaced the whole thing. | The culprit was the lack of flashing over the
wood cornice. Photo shows the new flashing we put on. Note how nice the new work matches the old. |
Finished wall. | Mynor dashes on the pebble mix.
Don't you wish your employees looked this happy ? |
The area at the bottom curves out slightly to
allow water to run off. This is called a "wash". |
Captain's log: star date July 2003.
Plywood deflector shields are used to deflect falling debris from the house. |
