The house where we are all living as we complete renovations to the main house is the old detached kitchen. In addition to the severe termite damage to the building, years of water damage have compromised the foundation. The brick foundation wall which lines the underground root cellar is bowing inward and will collapse in time if this is not repaired. We have already installed gutters to help prevent ongoing water damage, but the foundation wall must also be repaired. Though we are doing much of the work here ourselves, this is a case where is it best to hire professional brick masons. We have selected a a brick mason who specializes in historical renovation, to help preserve this historic building. Our goal is to raise $6,000 by June, 2016 to repair and re-point the foundation. Please help us preserve this historic structure. Please donate today.
