Perfect may be the enemy of done, but sometimes you have to bite the bullet. Step inside a century-old Portland home in mid-transformation as it’s retrofitted for 21st-century performance. This candid tour reveals the challenges of turning a 1906 balloon-framed house into a durable, efficient home. Expect stories of problem-solving, budget juggling, and the nitty-gritty of air sealing, thermal bridges, and managing subcontractors.
