Finally Fixed The Posts

5 October 2024

I finally got around to fixing the rotted wood posts and corner bits around the porch.

We've had these temporary supports in place for years now.






I made some new pieces to place under the existing posts with pressure treated 6x6. I mortised out the center sections of the bottom of the new piece to allow water to drain away and air to circulate under the post. Then I coated the bottom with sealer.





As usual, Amy came behind me with her paints and brushes and made them look pretty.



There was also a corner around the back of the house that has been missing some trim. I fixed that as well.
