Freedom Construction

Description of Work: (1) new interior staircase -- built new staircase to provide access to 3rd floor attic apartment. Involved opening up ceiling, moving several doorways, adding walls, interior drywall, all permits and inspection. Construction was solid and orgainzed. (2) rooftop widow's watch/roof decks. This was a tricky job that involved building a small widow's watch on the very top of a Victorian farmhouse. Joe worked from the roof up -- replacing all shingles and rubber roof that would be underneath before building deck and stairs. Deck was well-designed and wood shake siding was added to match rest of house. Joe recommended steel stairway, and arranged with metal shop to custom build stairway. Lower deck was added later and involved a lot of repair to underlying roof and siding. Overall an excellent job, some miscommunication about dimensions of stairway that could have been anticipated. Basic construction solid and Joe has good contacts with other contractors for help with roofing and siding. (3) added dormer to 3rd floor apartment. Opened up roof, framed in new dormer, re-roofed, changed two roof skylights, added siding to match existing. (4) new patio doors and windows. (5) interior paint. This was a difficult job as the ceilings in this apartment slope up to 14 ft center height, many odd angles and paint lines, and some drywall repair at the highest points. Joe has equipment for just about anything, and was able to complete job in only a few days.
