Kraft Custom ConstructionKraft Custom Construction
When we first saw this 1850's farmhouse, the porch was dangerously fragile and falling apart. It had an unstable foundation; rotting columns, handrails, and stairs; and the ceiling had a sag in it, indicating a potential structural problem. The homeowner's goal was to create a usable outdoor living space, while maintaining and respecting the architectural integrity of the home. We began by shoring up the porch roof structure so we could completely deconstruct the porch itself and what was left of its foundation. From the ground up, we rebuilt the whole structure, reusing as much of the original materials and millwork as possible. Because many of the 170-year-old decorative profiles aren't readily available today, our team of carpenters custom milled the majority of the new corbels, dentil molding, posts, and balusters. The porch was finished with some new lighting, composite decking, and a tongue-and-groove ceiling. The end result is a charming outdoor space for the homeowners to welcome guests, and enjoy the views of the old growth trees surrounding the home.

We don’t often do front porches but when we do they turn out like this! Spanning the face of the porch adjacent to sections of Key-Link railing there are six strong stone columns that reach all the way to ground to reinforce a sense of strength. On ether side of the steps is a sitting area affixed with a fan overhead. This project is a wonderful way to start your day off; enjoying a cup of coffee and the morning light.

With the Therma-tru Canvas door, what sets this door apart is the size of the glass, your typical "big box" fiber glass door will have a 21" lite (window) width, where as Therma-tru has been able to widen the glass to 26" without compromising on the structural integrity. This give the benefit of fiberglass while keeping the classic wood styling we've come to expect. Emtek handles and Endura trilennium multi-point hardware for added security.

In this small but quaint project, the owners wanted to build a new front entry vestibule to their existing 1920's home. Keeping in mind the period detailing, the owners requested a hand rendering of the proposed addition to help them visualize their new entry space. Due to existing lot constraints, the project required approval by the local Zoning Board of Appeals, which we assisted the homeowner in obtaining. The new addition, when completed, added the finishing touch to the homeowner's meticulous restoration efforts. Photo: Amy M. Nowak-Palmerini

This was a handrail we design and fabricated for a client who needed matchbook-style handrails to meet home insurance requirements. These handrails are fabricated from hot-rolled steel, powder-coated in a matte black, and anchored into the concrete.
