Barn Renovations - Bricking & Mortaring Foundation Window

in barn •  7 years ago 

An old window for the barn basement:

Possums and other creatures would climb through it:

Let's lay some big boulders down and mortar them in:

Make sure the bricks are level:

Keep adding rows of bricks with mortar:

Line the window hole up with the rest of the foundation:

No more possums can get in:

The window hole is gone:

It is not quite even on the outside but it is plenty sturdy:

lot of work to do

Good work. This brings back some memories. I was raised in an old stone house and I remember whitewashing the stone in the basement one summer.

Friend @ money-dreamer, a first-class finish, congratulations, greetings

Good job there, it looks pretty even to me from the outside and it will be one of those things that only you notice. I find that when doing projects, most of the time there are little things you notice that noone else ever does. Keep up the good work and love seeing updates. I can’t wait to start on my project and give some updates in the not to distant future :)

wao goes great work, hehe nice pet.

Hey buddy, did you do a waterproof job? It is to brush a layer of basic protection on the basic surface of the paint, and the outer layer is brushed again with waterproof and anti-oxidant paint. Will the wood be easily spoiled? I don't know what material you use and the quality standards of your country, but if you fix the facade, I suggest you do a waterproof reinforcement at the root of the wall to a height of 0.8m, the material is cheap, and you cement the outer wall of the cement Before covering the exposed surface, then do the final smoothing

Thanks for the advice. I will look into adding some waterproofing to the exterior of the foundation.
