Local Do-It-Yourselfers put fun and function in home projects Rusted Weatherproof Fence
Artist Karyn Gabaldon, owner of Karyn Gabaldon Fine Arts, and her jazz musician husband Jeff Solon point out the fence they created at their Riverview Drive home. Instead of replacing their neighbor’s rotting wood fence, they wrapped it with pre-cut sheets of steel. Repeated sprays of salt, water and hydrogen peroxide gave it a warm, rusty-orange color. “It will be there for at least 50 years,” said Gabaldon. “And it makes the yard look contemporary, yet rustic.”
File-Cabinet Meat Smoker
Bart Collins roasts vegetables and meat in his homemade smoker made out of an old file cabinet. “I’m an early enthusiast of the Maker Movement,” he said. “I love to work with found objects, which I call ‘Obtanium.’” Collins built the smoker in June 2015, and says it should last a lifetime, with a better design than he could have purchased. The two drawers make it easy to load fuel and deal with loading and unloading the food. For people who want to re-create his project, he suggests older, heavy-gauge steel file cabinets that have metal bearings instead of “the new junk” that uses plastic. “I believe in reuse, recycle, reclaim,” he said.

Concrete Kitchen Countertops
Melissa (above) and Chris Lopez renovated an older manufactured home in the Durango area from December through February. One of their favorite projects was concrete kitchen countertops. “We didn’t want to spend much money, and I think that a lot of the cost of concrete counters is labor and expertise,” said Melissa. “I love the color, texture and style. We used an epoxy coating, which is slick and hard. I love the trim Chris put on the edge, and the piece of furniture we incorporated into the kitchen under the island counter.” Fall 2015 • Durango Living/Home Improvement •

Locals dwell in Tiny Home, straw-bale house, and Earthship BY RACHEL SEGURA Assistant Magazine Editor
T Greg Parham, owner of Rocky Mountain Tiny Houses, sits outside his151-square foot home in Durango.
he American dream is often depicted as a large house with a lush green yard, white fencing and a grinning family excited to become new homeowners. What if that dream also included straw bales, used tires packed with dirt or a space less than 200 square feet? Not everyone’s dreams are made of the same fabric – and neither are their houses. An alternative lifestyle may seem strange to some, but there are many homeowners in the Four Corners who find sustainable means of living much cozier. It can also mean less maintenance, less financing and less aggravation. Three local homeowners chose to live outside the box by building an original dwelling. Here are their stories.
JERRY MCBRIDE/Herald
A Tiny House, and a big dream W hen Greg Parham trekked from Austin, Texas, to Durango it only took two truckloads to haul his belongings. Like many Durango residents, Parham moved here looking for new beginnings and mountain adventures. He didn’t imagine he would be paying for a view. “I had no idea about the real estate prices here,” he said. “I was looking for cheap renting options, but there weren’t any.” Parham lived in a tent on a farm at the northern end of town. He did odd jobs to support himself and continued to search for his ideal mountain home. There were some ideas that faltered – mine claims for instance – but he remained hopeful. Living in Austin didn’t leave him with a big city mentality. He’s an outdoorsman, with a love of cycling and river sports; and living simply and sustainably has always been a life goal. It wasn’t until a friend sent Parham an e-mail describing the aspects of the Tiny Home revolution did the cogs begin to turn. “It was exactly what I wanted.”
The Tiny Home movement has been gaining speed for more than 10 years. Television shows, conventions and other social gatherings are an effective way of marketing these little palaces. The homes can range in size, but must stick to state highway regulations as most are built on wheels. Parham didn’t waste any time. In 2012, he sold his home in Austin, a 600-squarefoot property, and used that money to begin construction on his new abode. During the building of his tiny house, dubbed the Durango, he resided in a 1965 renovated camper. He now builds homes for others through his business, Rocky Mountain Tiny Houses. “There has really been no change in the way I live,” he said. “I’ve always lived small and modestly.” Going from a tent, to a camper, to a 151-square-foot home was considered an incredibly hefty upgrade. Parham built his home on a standard 16’ trailer that features various types of recycled materials, such as rusty corrugated wainscot

and roughsawn pine board. The water heater and stove operate on propane, and solar panels provide electricity. Moving his belongings in was fairly simple; however, he does keep a small storage unit for his bicycles and other outdoor toys. Even with these extra goodies in stock, he has no qualms about donating material items when the time comes. “I think as Americans, we have a tendency to acquire things and we don’t realize how much we can obtain over time. It’s not healthy to get tied to material things.” Parham would rather choose experience over material ownership. At the moment, his life experiences have grown tremendously as he now builds tiny homes for a living, putting his architectural background to good use. His last finished home went to a family of four in Indiana. That structure was 26’ long and topped out at 208 square feet. The challenge of a tiny home, for a builder like Parham, is the size of the structure requires constant creativity and innovation – but he says it’s also the most rewarding. n

Straw Bale: Home that hugs
J
ohn Rehorn promised his wife, Katherine Anderson, the home of her dreams – a straw-bale structure on their farm property on County Road 213. Rehorn and Anderson had been living in a small cottage at the edge of the road. Anderson is an acupuncturist in Durango and Rehorn is a farmer. Anderson wanted something a bit larger, but sustainably functional. They considered an Earthship, but settled on a straw bale, knowing it wouldn’t be as labor-intensive to build, but would still have the excellent benefits of temperature control. “I knew I wanted to help in the building process, so I thought an Earthship would be too much work for me,” Rehorn said. In 2001, Rehorn began the project by designing plans and enlisting the help of professionals and friends. They also carefully shopped for their supplies, finding local areas to fulfill their needs. Their two-story home consists of straw bales, load-bearing wood beams and two-by-fours, concrete, clay, plaster and sand. The straw bales came from Navajo Pride products in Farmington from Navajo Agricultural Products Industry – 3-twine bales at a size of 16-by-22-by-46”. As the building progressed, the couple was close by to oversee the plans. “One advantage to building this home was that there was no urge to hurry,” Rehorn said. “We lived in our farmhouse while building the new home.” They also shopped around on their farmland for special materials to integrate into their home, such as juniper trees and limbs that act as outdoor design elements, the living room focal point and the stairway banister. The couple had a very clear, concise idea of how they wanted to design their new home. During the building, they found several ways to personalize their walls, floors and rooms with recycled-glass bottles and tile. John’s brother Ron added more custom touches to the home. Ron moved from Santa Fe to live in a teepee on their property. He was looking for a change of scenery. “He was changing jobs and looking to start new, so I told him to come up here, live with us and help me build this house,” Rehorn said. Ron dabbled in artwork as a hobby. As a gift to his brother, he created sand-art pictures and placed them in the walls, making unique design concepts and integrated art for the home, which Rehorn proudly shows to visitors. Ron passed away suddenly in a car accident last November. Rehorn is glad his brother was there to help. With all the little art pieces plastered on the walls, it’s as if he were a part of the home now. It’s easy to see that Rehorn loves his family and puts forth great effort to help each member.

As for Kathy, she adores their cozy straw bale. She wanted a little more space and an efficient home – and he delivered. With all the care they took in choosing materials and the time they spent designing together, Kathy has a special way to describe her home. “It feels like it’s hugging you.” n

Earthship: Natural home is off the grid
D
avid Nighteagle was raised a contractor’s son. He assisted with the construction of two Earthship homes, and then decided to build his own. An Earthship is a type of passive-solar house that is made of both natural and recycled materials, such as earth-filled tires. Earthships are intended to be “off-the-grid ready” homes, with minimal reliance on both public utilities and fossil fuels. Earthships are constructed to use available natural resources – especially energy from the sun – and are designed to use thermal mass construction and natural cross-ventilation. The main building blocks for the exterior wall construction are tires. These are typically car and pick-up truck sizes with rim sizes from 13 to 16 inches. There is a standard floor plan for Earthships. Each room is built in a “U” or horseshoe shape. No foundation is required. The tires are laid flat in place along the wall. The first row is laid directly on the ground, and earthen material is rammed or pounded into the tires until they balloon up and are well-packed. Subsequent rows are stacked on top of the preceding tire rows with an offset. Each tire, when completed, weighs several hundred pounds and cannot be moved. Nighteagle hired three teenagers to help with the construction. They broke ground Oct. 1, 1998 on 11 acres of property across from Mesa Verde National Park. “The bank closed on the property, and immediately after that, we broke ground,” Nighteagle said. “I didn’t waste any time, and I had everyone here ready to go to work.” Nighteagle worked through the winter and into summer, and moved into the home on Aug. 31, 1999. Initially, the home had all the common characteristics found in an Earthship, including a grey-water planter and a rain-water harvesting system. Ten years later, the Earthship was converted to a hybrid home. A second story was built with lumber and a passive solar design. The second-story level took about six years to finish. It was a happy accident that it came to be. Originally, the couple simply wanted a new roof. “Do you know how hard it is to build a rectangular structure on top of a U-shaped home?” Nighteagle’s wife Sherry joked. She

David Nighteagle (above) and his wife Sherry own an Earthship home across from Mesa Verde National Park.
has dubbed the home the “Mother Ship.” The Nighteagle Earthship has 50 feet of windows on the first floor, and a clerestory second-floor roof together with various other southfacing, second-floor windows and glass-glazed doors. Because an Earthship is designed to utilize thermal dynamics, the main rooms, living room, kitchen and bedrooms normally have open entry ways without doors. This open effect allows air circulation throughout. The home’s south-facing position efficiently utilizes the sun’s low axis during the winter, when the sun’s warmth easily penetrates the home’s interior stone and adobe-style concrete floors. The south wall is mainly windowpane from one end to the other. “Efficient lighting and appliances, plus on-demand hot water heating are a must,” said Nighteagle. The home is not connected to the electric grid. They have a solar PV field of 2,000 watts, two wind generators and a backup generator. They also have a 1,500-gallon water containment system. An airtight woodstove on the second floor heats the 1,150-square-foot upstairs when needed. The first-floor fireplace and small propane heater warm the 1,750-square-foot downstairs. They both warn people to be prepared for a lot of hard physical work if they want to build an Earthship. “Be conscientious of your room placement and your floor plan,” said David. “When you are placing light switches, or if you want something on the wall, be ready to live with that decision.” Sherry said if you build a house like this, you have to love it. “There is no remodeling or knocking down walls,” she said. “There’s not a lot of privacy in an Earthship, but I enjoy all the open space. I like the non-traditional approach. In many ways, we are completely off grid.” n

Wood is
good
Green builder Jay Hecker enjoys challenge of custom carpentry BY KARLA SLUIS Magazine Editor
J
ay Hecker’s passion was inspired by a polluted river. But it was not the Animas River of August 2015. His commitment to working sustainably with wood began in his childhood, after his hometown river in New England was contaminated by a paper mill. He witnessed an ecosystem with trees, water and wildlife restored through community effort, and that event shaped his career and mission. “I work with concern for the health of my client as well as the health of the environment,” he said. Hecker now has 30 years of experience as a green builder crafting with wood, and he has owned Stellar Jay Designs in Durango for 12 years. He is a master woodworker, carpenter and designer who offers design, construction and fine woodworking. Hecker formerly worked for a large building company in Massachusets, but he left because he wanted smaller, more personal projects. Now he does mostly remodels, cabinetry and furniture. “I do a lot of classic design with flair,” said Hecker, who describes himself as a builder with a craftsman’s insight. “I like to make it look like it was there all along.” Durango is “a special space,” he said. He has noticed a regional trend of people holding onto homes and remodeling instead of scraping. There is also a demand for green building. Hecker likes the artistic effect of mixing different species of wood, as in this parquet box.

The hodgepodge of homes in different styles creates interesting variety. Historic homes hold a special appeal. “I love working for people who are interested in preserving a period style of building,” he said. Solid communication is the foundation of Hecker’s work. As an on-site contractor, he is with his clients five days a week. “They hire me, not a crew overseen by me,” he said. “That’s my special touch: I am there.” Sometimes, couples can have a hard time agreeing on the details of a remodel. Hecker said he has metaphorically put on the black and white-striped shirt as both a referee and counselor. Hand-holding is part of the process. He says it can be tough to come up with an estimate until clients know what they want. “I rely on my instincts to put an allowance on the work. I don’t pressure my clients into any decision. I have to be patient.” Hecker understands the power of word of mouth and community connection. Outside of work, he’s involved in many groups, such as serving on the Snowdown committee, acting as president of the Woodworker’s Guild, and the Solarize La Plata program through 4CORE. “When I’m done with a project, I see clients around town. I enjoy going out for a beer with them,” he said. “It’s about improving lives.” Hecker said the biggest challenge of working in a rural area is finding suppliers. He likes to use different species of wood, but local lumbar yards are limited and shipping is expensive. His wish list also includes a larger shop and a “young buck” apprentice with a strong work ethic. But Hecker knows he’s fortunate. “I’m happy to be doing something that’s my passion,” he said. “It’s rewarding at the end of the day to stand back and see the finished product.” On his website, he says his epitaph will eventually be: Wood is Good. “I love it. When I touch wood, I touch nature.” For more information, visit www.stellarjaydesigns.com or call (970) 769-8356.

mold with the
BY RACHEL SEGURA Assistant Magazine Editor
A
ccording to the United States Centers for Disease Control (CDC), there are over 100,000 different types of mold in the world. Not all of these fungi are a threat; however, moisture-ridden areas are more prone to dangerous mold build-up. If symptoms in the home or in the body go unnoticed, certain types of harmful mold can spread quickly. Tim Robinson, owner of CARE Cleaning and Restoration, Inc. based in Durango, provides a little insight into the sights and smells that homeowners should be aware of when buying or remodeling their home. Before someone invests in a home, what are some warning signs they may look for regarding mold? Look for any water staining on the outside of drywall or on hardwood. If you investigate the crawl space, always look for proper ventilation, for example: vents that are open, or an exhaust fan set up on a humidistat. Take note if the ground is damp or muddy. They should also look around the vent openings, because that is where you will see most mold growth due to moisture and humidity. When mold is present, what are the signs in the home environment or physical signs that can help detect it? Mold has a particular smell that you can pick up on. It smells like old dirty socks, and many times you can get a scent of that. Look for any discoloration in the paint or on any wood surfaces. Some people have an allergic
Expert shares warning signs, health hazards and remedies reaction to mold that leads to sneezing, itchy eyes, runny nose, headaches, etc. We would recommend an air sample to compare the inside air quality to the outside air quality. This will give you an exact reading of what you are breathing. If the problem is minor, what can homeowners do to remedy the situation before calling a professional? We highly recommend they call a professional every time, because in many cases you can cross-contaminate an entire house if you do not handle the mold correctly. If you see a little mold on a windowseal, it is OK to use a regular cleaner to clean it off; but keep in mind a mold spore is like blowing a dandelion – you could spread the spores all over the home. What are some tips to prevent mold from occurring or reoccurring? Having proper ventilation is the key to controlling mold growth. We see crawl spaces all over this area that have no vents. That is a perfect place for mold to grow, because there are no air changes. We recommend installing a proper moisture barrier in the crawl space, because that will help with moisture control. You should keep vents open all year in the crawlspace and attic. Always have an exhaust in the bathrooms, and run them when you shower or bathe. Also, keep items clean and away from walls. For example, we inspected a home once, and the back side of the bed had mold all over the wall because of dirty linens and no air circulation.

By now we all know, or at least have an inkling, that the products we are purchasing to clean our homes are not necessarily the safest. Though products, such as Febreze or Glade, leave your kitchen springtime fresh, those deodorizers are more than likely masking toxins. There are many other items just as effective in cleaning your home as store-bought cleaners. In fact, they may already be hiding in your cupboards. I compiled a list of ingredients to create my own laundry detergent, air fresheners, and glass and oven cleaners to test out around my home. Here is my take on two of the products I created, and how they worked for me. Laundry Detergent 1 cup washing soda 1 cup Borax 1 bar of soap, like Ivory, Zote or Fels-Naptha Nothing special happened when using this detergent. The soap didn’t create any suds in the washer. It dissolves better in warm or hot water, rather than cold. It did smell good in the jar but there was no smell left behind on my clothes. As most detergents leave flowery, fresh, heavily deodorized smells, this concoction left nothing of the sort. However, my clothes were clean, and after they dried they were very soft. If you want a laundry scent, there are plenty of natural ways to deodorize your clothes. All-Purpose Cleaner 1-2 teaspoons tea tree oil Water Spray bottle I already use this mixture on my yoga mat after I discovered it was a safe alternative. I took my bottle and sprayed my kitchen table and countertops after a night of cooking in the kitchen. It worked just as well as it does on my mat. It removed food and grease spills from the countertops, and made the kitchen smell light and fresh.
