REBUILT BALUSTRADE

In spring of 2021, the balustrade above the front door entry was re-built in order to raise the railing height, to improve safety and to make the terrace a useable outdoor green space. The existing baluster/rail component was removed and set aside. The corner plinth boxes were re-framed, a custom rail with drain channels was built, the baluster/rail component was re-set and custom panels were made for the plinth boxes to match the existing ones. Custom flashing for the drain channels and tile were installed at angles to match the existing balcony tile around the base of the balustrade, allowing water to move away from the edges, directing it toward the gutter on the other side.
