Home across the street was completely destroyed by Gas explosion. This home was rocked by resulting shock wave. |
 |
You can see that the racking of the home caused fastners throughout the home to be loosened. Note the way the wall in the garage is completely ajar. |
 |
Part of the reason for such movement was the cathedral ceiling in the front room. |
 |
Fortunately the foundation was not damaged and we were able to save the first floor subfloor. Additional savings were the salvage of the heating system and much of the electrical and plumbing systems. |
 |
Here we have begun the reframing of the first floor. |
 |
The crane arrives and trusses are set. |
 |
Work progessing swiftly as the carpenters work in unison with the crane operator. |
 |
The home was finished within 90 days of the incident. As you can see, the moving vans are outside the home and the home next door is still boarded up from the incident. |
