We believe a historic home is a complete system, where every part affects the whole. Our multi-trade expertise allows us to move beyond simple repairs and provide comprehensive solutions that address both the immediate symptoms and their underlying causes, ensuring the long-term health of your entire home.
Exterior Restoration & Weatherproofing
We meticulously repair and restore every component of your home’s protective envelope, from roofing and chimneys down to the siding, windows, and gutters.
Our primary focus is on eliminating water intrusion and preventing rot, preserving both your home’s classic appearance and its primary defense against the New England climate.
Structural Repair & Preservation Planning
Our work goes to the core of your home's health, addressing foundational issues, sill plate integrity, and custom carpentry projects like decks and accessibility ramps. We also offer bespoke preservation planning to help you create a long-term maintenance strategy, proactively safeguarding your home's structural integrity and legacy for the future.

Every historic home has a story, and every repair or restoration is a new page in its history. We see ourselves as your partners in writing that next chapter—one that honors the original narrative while ensuring the story can continue for decades to come. Whether you're facing a critical repair or are simply planning for the future, let's discuss how we can work together to protect and enhance your home's unique legacy.
