Thanks for visiting our new website!
One of our big projects last year was our Barn Restoration. The roof was leaking badly and the structure was essentially sliding off of the foundation. If not arrested, the barn would have collapsed within a decade.
The building was constructed in the 1870s, so I would be sagging too if I was around 150 years old. But note the pictures of the hand hewn oak beams in the upper story. Worth preserving.
So, we added a new metal roof, gutters and had major structural work done. Replaced the center beam support columns and footings. Also replaced the entire north side wall footing/foundation and related support columns and lower wall framing.
Thanks to Kurt Gardner and Paul Hayden of the Indiana Barn Foundation for your advice regarding what needed to be done.
The work was very quickly and professionally done by Marvin Schwartz Construction - (260) 414-2897.
