Working on the Gordon House

In addition to investigating the cantilevered balcony at the Gordon House, we also worked on a few of the windows and the ceiling.

The picture on the left shows a portion of the plywood ceiling in the dining room that had been damaged by water. This image shows the area after it had been partially scraped. After we finished scraping, we bleached the water spots.



Halfway through adding the multiple coats of varnish.

View of the window once it was taken off the house. The damaged exterior area was replaced with plywood.





The window put back in place before the linseed oil was applied to match the color to rest of the windows.
