| Historic Hodge House in Warner Park Built in the early 1790's this log and timber frame structure is the oldest known building in the Warner Park system in Metro Davidson Country. Over the years the building sustained heavy termite damage and had lost much of the structural integrity of the original logs and timbers and had become a liability. In order to repair the damage, the building had to be stabilized, and completely dismantled piece by piece, down to the ground while saving as many of the official historic elements as possible. |
| After disassembly, the house was reconstructed using the structurally sound original elements and the damaged elements were replaced with salvaged vintage materials of like size, species and era. The building was reconstructed using old family photographs and photographs we took during the dismantling phase. The scope of work included: demolition, footings, foundation, chimney reconstruction, stonework, log repair and replacement, framing, chinking and daubing, restoration and replication of historic windows and doors, historic and reclaimed wood flooring, interior trim, fabrication of handrails and cedar decking, insulation, electrical, metal roofing, drywall and painting. |
