Flue Season…

A heavy wall stainless steel flue liner was installed, surrounded by lightweight concrete of perlite and portland cement that offers zero clearance to combustibles.

Old windows, and older windows….

Here you can see the original window sizes in the unpainted area where the window trim would have been. As the house was transformed from a dogtrot cabin (C. 1866) into a 2 story Victorian (Late 1800’s), taller windows were added; near 2:1 ratio as common in Victorian period homes. The front dogtrot doors were about 6″ shorter as seen in trim details of the door photo.
