Restoring Century-Old Homes: 5 Factors to Consider

When looking back at home architecture over the last one hundred-plus years, there are few homes more beautiful than those built around the turn of the century. 

These homes were built around 1900, a time fraught with conflict, innovation, and expanding industrialization. The availability of mass-produced home materials and recently built railroad lines meant that easily replicated styles became popular, contributing to designs that still hold great beauty today. 

Victorian Porch Restoration Project: Complete

Welcome back to the final update on one of the most fascinating projects the Old School Craftsman team has worked on in recent memory. 

Myself, Brent Sears, and my son are so pleased that you could accompany us on this journey. From a once-stunning porch that fell to ruin, to a vibrant and refurbished masterpiece, the Victorian porch is truly a sight to behold.  

Victorian Home Restoration

If you know anything about the Old School Craftsman team, then you know we love (and I mean LOVE) vintage craftsmanship. Our name is Old School Craftsman, after all.  

So, when we were contracted to restore and preserve this lovely Double Porch on this beautiful Victorian home and to once again work with our favorite architect Tom Wilcox of Wilcox Architecture, we were thrilled to provide a “Team Approach” we bring to this project as we have to  so many in the past 30 years.
