Reconstruction and extension of an ancestral house pièce-sur-pièce

MANDATE
Team up with clients in their self-build project
Carry out their project of rebuilding an authentic house pièce-sur-pièce
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The clients worked very hard to make their project a reality.
The clients did the dismantling, transportation, refurbishing, and cleaning of the original Ontario house. The stone for the fireplaces was even recovered from the floor of the old house. The clients also organized the rebuilding of the pièce-sur-pièce section.
The big challenge in this project was to marry, aesthetically and technically, the original square of rooms-on-rooms with two extensions. Indeed, mixing two constructions from entirely different eras is a delicate task, especially since many assembly details must be thought out and rethought.
We were able to meet this challenge, especially when recovering materials. For example, the old rusted sheet metal of the roof was taken back and installed on the interior walls. Also, the structural beams of an old barn were reused and became decorative primarily, while the original "Beams and Decking" floor was kept.
It was a project worthy of our passion for ancestral homes. Thank you to the owners for giving us this unique chance of accomplishment!
