Raisin' the Roof on the Lake Quivira Retrofit

Making Progress at the Lake Quivira Deep Energy Retrofit

We cut a roughly 30' x 40' center section of the gable roof out of this Lake Quivira residence and replaced with new gable trusses to allow for taller windows and high vaulted ceilings. Can't wait to share more on the progress here.

Big shout out to the framing crew at Schelp - they did a great job on this one.
