- FramingThe process requires disassembly of several courses of slate from the roof, removal of the existing gutter and cornice, and repair and replacement of framing timbers that decayed due to water infiltration over the years. When disassembly and framing repairs are complete a new reglit is cut into the limestone to accept the bottom flange on the cornice. New cornice sections are fit and fastened to the building. New gutter brackets and gutters are mounted and soldered, flashing and roof slate are reinstalled and the crew moves on to repeat this simplified explanation of the process on another section of the building.

- Demolition“Green building (also known as green construction or sustainable building) refers to both a structure and the using of processes that are environmentally responsible and resource-efficient throughout a building’s life-cycle: from siting to design, construction, operation, maintenance, renovation, and demolition. In other words, green building design involves finding the balance between building and the sustainable environment. This requires close cooperation of the design team, the architects, the engineers, contractor(s) and the client at all project stages. The Green Building practice expands and complements the classical building design concerns of economy, utility, durability, and comfort.

- InsulationIn this home as is the case in truss roof construction, the ceiling is attached to the trusses. Electrical wires running through the attic from the electric service along their respective circuits fed power to the entire home. If you remove the roofing materials and trusses, you have to remove the ceilings, insulation, electrical wiring, plumbing vents and on and on. Essentially you open the up the entire structure and must protect it from weather and debris. Imagine the cost and time to perform this work.
