New roof at Arlington airport, Change from an exposed fastener roof to standing seam roof

In Arlington WA, on a commercial piece of property by the airport.  We updated  the building from an exposed fastener roof to standing seam roof, and used 50’ long single roof sheets instead of a 2 piece system they had previously.

The resulting metal roof is stronger, more durable and will last much longer.  This greatly increases the value of the building, and gives decades of deferred maintenance for the exterior. Continue reading

The Barn on Orcas Island

What does your dream workshop look like? Does it have a full living space including an entertainment room, an office, a kitchen, custom kids play areas, and bedrooms? How about a full movie theater? How about an elevator? Most of you probably didn’t think such things were possible! I know I didn’t! At least until I visited “The Barn” on Orcas Island.

Last week I took a trip out to Orcas Island with Jim Spane, to look at this beautiful shop built by Spane Buildings. The purpose of our trip was to get some video of the building, and to visit with the owner Bill Wulff. When we first got out there, I was blown away by the property. The Barn is set down in a large clearing. It was completely surrounded by trees, and at first glance, it looked more like a kids’ dream play area than a man cave.
