Preservation Workshop | Do’s and Don’ts of Historic Home Renovation

Historic Columbia’s 2017 Preservation Workshop series, presented by Crawlspace Medic, returns in October.

Historic Columbia and the Committee for the Restoration and Beautification of Randolph Cemetery(CRBRC) will host a Preservation Workshop at the Seibels House to explore the ins and outs of renovating and maintaining a historic house. The workshop, led by Sean Stucker, director of facilities for Historic Columbia, and Staci Richey, owner of Access Preservation (which specializes in window restoration) and board member of the CRBRC, will lead attendees through a presentation and discussion that offers tips for success and that examines how to plan, to outline, and to manage a home rehab project. Participants will go on to explore work done over the centuries at the Seibels House and will have the chance to check out ongoing and recent renovations at several neighboring properties. The Seibels House is located at 1601 Richland Street. Light refreshments are included, and tickets for the workshop are $5 for members and $10 for non-members.
