Vintage homes have many beautiful features that entice homeowners to purchase them, but the age of these houses can also cause apprehension for homeowners about remodeling. There is a fine line between maintaining the vintage beauty of your home and losing some of its antique charm. That’s why Craftsman Exterior Remodeling is here to help you along the process. 

A Zionsville homeowner knew it was time for some repairs on their 19th-century farmhouse, but they had no idea the extent of work that needed to be done. So they contacted our team to assess their home and plan the project. 

A Trustworthy Team Helped Seal the Deal

Due to the age of the home, the Zionsville homeowners had no real way of knowing what to expect as far as the extent of repairs that their home would require. After getting a clear picture of what the project would entail, the homeowners ultimately decided to hire the Craftsman Exterior team because a member of our team previously worked for James Hardie. His premium experience and our status as a James Hardie Preferred Contractor put the homeowners’ minds at ease that we were the right team for the job. 

Premium Services Give an Antique Home a New Life

After signing the contract, our team continued meeting with the homeowners to discuss every detail. Finally, we held the “Cover the Scope” meeting with the homeowners. This session gave all of the details to see different possibilities that the homeowners needed to be made aware of for the design process. It allowed our team to provide a more accurate estimate for the final project and offer an accurate timeline. 

For this project, the Craftsman Exterior team provided these services for the Zionsville home:

• Removed all old aluminum and vinyl siding and substrate
• Removed and properly disposed of asbestos
• Removed and replaced insulation with Owens Corning
• Installed James Hardie fiber cement lap and board and batten siding in Arctic White
• Framing of the soffit and fascia (matching the new siding)

Dependable, Expert Remodeling Contractors for Homeowners in the Zionsville Area

Every project comes with a challenge or two, and the age of this farmhouse proved to be the biggest challenge for this project. Because of its age, our team could not tell the scope of damage that needed to be repaired until demolition was completed. Along with three layers of new siding, our team faced water damage, rot, and framing issues. However, we were able to overcome them all thanks to our step-by-step plan, which accounted for unforeseen challenges. 

This Zionsville homeowner particularly appreciated the polite communication, cleanliness, and daily updates we provided throughout the project and is extremely satisfied with the result. Don’t wait until you notice something wrong with your home to fix its issues. Book your free assessment with Craftsman Exterior Remodeling today, and let us keep your home beautiful!
