(Before.)
I've recently completed work for one of my toughest customers - my wife. ;)
We purchased a turn-of-the-century home a couple of years ago, and after doing a bunch of structural work (not to mention electric, plumbing, heating, insulation, etc), I have begun to work on our home's exterior.
New windows, new vertical siding (and underneath that, new insulation and Tyvek/home wrap), new trim, paint, a decorative bracket in the top roof peak, and of course a fence and landscaping.
The work you see on the front of the house itself (not the fence or landscaping) was started and completed this weekend.
