The Taproot
The New Porch for the Old “Newer” House
Everyone who works at West Wind has formed a close relationship with wood. Most are passionate and take advantage of any opportunity to use and/or work with it. Our Flooring Manger, Joel is no different. In fact he set the bar for everyone else. He’s been with us since 1998; still in high school at the time and highly recommended by his Wood Work Teacher. He has spent his entire post-secondary career working towards improving and upgrading his living environment; a few times over.
Here are some pictures of the porch he installed on his current home renovation. Great job! What’s next?
