We are going to begin the process of repainting the building and Carriage House at 350-352 Essex Street. Currently, there are several shades of the same'mustard yellow' color in use (front and back of the main building and then also on the carraige house as well), and our plan is to repaint using a historical (Benjamin Moore)color palette. The color we've chosen for the body of both buildings is from that historical palette and called'Marblehead Gold' ... it's roughly between the current'body' color of the main house and the carriage house and certainly within the general hue of both. We will then look to a color from the historical palette called'Bracken Creme' for the detail around the windows and other ornamental/decorative trim areas. There is a third color, called'Gunsmith Gray',that we are contemplating using on the window frames should we choose to take off the existing storm windows to paint and then reinstall. We're not yet committed to doing this,mostly from a cost perspective,but if we do,this would be out color choice. Lastly, we will paint the front/other doors'Mopboard Black', a color from the historical palette(this represents a change from the current deep red which does not match the yellow/gold or the building). Our plan is to begin with painting the carriage house and to that end,we will have'test paint' on the building available for you to see within the next week. Painting the main building will follow either later this summer or next spring.

Because of continued water leakage into the carriage house, a decision was made, on an emergency basis,to repair/replace roof shingles on the structure. There were several previously installed asphalt roofs on the building making it impossible to identify the source of leak. It appeared that there were three full roofs. The base layer of roofing was black,the second layer was reddish in color, and the top layer(most recent)was brown. There was evidence of patching that had occured over the years,using both green and black shingles. The predominant shingle was of the three tab variety. My contractor, Murley Contracting,began the process of stripping the roof-which was very time consuming as there were so many layers, and had not completed the process before I began a week and a half worth of business travel. Knowing me from several past projects at other properties, and after taking a walk around the neighborhood to look at the roofing material used on many of the abutting/near abutting properties,the contractor made the choice of using the GAF 'Timberline' architectural style of shingle- in black(as it was the base layer) versus the three tab shingle as the architectural style shingle carries a limited lifetime warranty against a 25 year warranty for the three tab variety. The architectural shingle is only marginally more expensive as a building material, it carries the look of a'shake' style shingle, and there's no difference in terms of time needed to install either product, so in his eyes it made perfect sense to go with the architectural shingle.
