Work

139 photographs, 62 of them mid-build.

Most contractors only show you the after. Many of these are mid-build — the joists, the ledger boards and the skim coats that decide whether the finish lasts. Browse by service below. Nothing here is stock photography.

Under the finish

The part you stop seeing on day nine.

Tile hides the pan. Drywall hides the framing. Decking hides the ledger board — and the ledger is the piece that decides whether a deck is still sound in ten years. These are our own job photographs of the work while it was still open.
