Photographed in Boston, MA after the crew wrapped up in January 2022. Narrow wood clapboards painted golden ochre wrap the three-story home, with white corner and window trim, black-framed sash, and decorative cornice detail at the front gable.

The set moves from finished elevations back to the job in progress. One view runs the long blind side wall of the three-story building, broken only by a few black-sash windows and a small roof dormer, with a downspout tracing the corner. The street corner shot shows the front: a projecting bay with bracketed cornices at two levels, a gable with decorative trim at the peak, and a side entry beside a paved drive. The in-progress photo shows old clapboards and boarded openings on one half while the adjoining addition stands in framing and taped sheathing.

Clapboard siding was installed over the main house and a new framed addition after the old wall covering and window openings were opened up. Work included corner boards, water table, bay and cornice trim, and casings around the black-framed windows. Roof-edge trim, gutters, and downspouts were run once the wall was closed in.

Details visible in the photos include Victorian cornice detail, bay window, black window frames. Materials on the elevation: wood clapboard siding, white PVC trim, black-framed windows, black metal railing.

The finish shown is golden ochre. Permits, inspections and dumpster logistics were handled by us. Progress photos went to the homeowner as the job moved along.
