Removing old caulk and grout instead of rebuilding.

Of all carpentry tasks, one that suits my perfectionist nature is tile work. I especially enjoy working with materials that stand a chance of lasting 100 years. Some of my tile installations have the potential to outlast their dwellings. “We need new tiles in our bathroom. When we shower, water leaks through the floor.”


My return to the deck at Springbough

Well, my first repair and alteration to the deck on this Frank Lloyd Wright home lasted a few years and then… A new owner and a new way of thinking, or is it an old way of thinking? Either way I was hired to demolish my work and restore the original design. Thank Goodness!
