October 13, 20169 yr comment_78724 Really nice ice work...love the copper and the seam work! Did you solder or just crimp? Certainly added character to the house. Report
October 13, 20169 yr comment_78725 VERY nice work. Exceptional. Love the copper and the iron corbels. Did/do you need to redo all the windows? Report

October 13, 20169 yr comment_78731 Now that's how a professional does it! Being able to that type of copper work isn't being taught in too many schools any longer. Report
October 13, 20169 yr comment_78759 That did turn out very nice, I love the look of the copper. Report
October 13, 20169 yr comment_78768 That looks great! I hope they can keep the tweekers away from the copper Report

October 16, 20169 yr comment_79222 nice job!!!! next time you might want to shine the copper up evenly so it ages and patinas evenly. Report

October 21, 20169 yr Author comment_80028 this is where this started.... you saw earlier how the flashing was done which proved to be a water let and you can only guess what happened to the interior... the fit and finish help w/ the water letting too... also note the soil up/over the siding and at the basement window sill...

December 2, 20187 yr comment_168246 That was surely a haphazardly done job. Great improvement Stick . Didn't even have support under the bay window. You can be proud of this. Report
