Redwood Panels Revived!

Our clients had storm damage to redwood panels in their cathedral ceilings.  Unfortunately, their insurance company said they could not be replaced and offered Douglas Fir as a replacement.  We were able to fabricate redwood ply panels that were a spot on match to the originals.  Their home is now good as new.  Eventually, we even got the adjuster (long faced) to step up and cover the costs. Whatever it was, we can make it new again.  Difficult jobs are the most challenging and the most fun.
