“What you wanna do, these are the key points to consider in a historic remodel. You want to maintain historic features. You want to prioritize preserving elements like the woodwork if it’s built out of timber in North America, the plaster, the windows, the doors, hardware, the exterior details that give the home its unique historical charm and make it such a memorable building. Repair before you replace.” 10:27
