This included removing 48 high brick wainscoting and then re-siding of the lower approximate 60 with an exact matching siding which was custom fabricated from a mill in Oregon.RV parking offers convenient storage for a boat or trailer, enhancing the Tahoe lifestyle appeal. The snow is here. Get ready to enjoy the magic of the Lake Tahoe lifestyle.
