Habitats as you can see also handles construction/remodeling
projects. The next pictures you will see on this page show a
garage remodel.
Here the garage doors were unequal in width rendering the
smaller door unusable for automobiles. We were asked to
make the doors equal in width. The original garage doors
in width were 9' and 16'. When we finished the project both
doors were 14' wide.
The customer wanted to make sure the roof of the garage
never sagged over the top of the less supported door area.
In order to guarantee this, Habitats installed a large steel
beam supported by 3 steel poles to support the front of
the garage. On the bottom of these poles
we welded steel plates and secured into the concrete
with large lag bolts.
The next two photos show how the steel beam and poles were
skillfully hidden for esthetics by finish grade plywood.
Pretty nice looking don’t you think?
Here we have the finished product after the new trim,
brick, and paint work.
