Painting Higher Than Ever: Epoxy Repairs & Ladder Fears on My 1873 House

This week I had to climb higher than I’ve ever climbed on this old 1873 Gothic Revival… and I am absolutely terrified of heights. What the camera doesn’t show is that it takes me hours to psych myself up just to get on the ladder, but restoring this house matters more than my fear. In this video, I: • Climbed up to the upper pediment to repair damaged wood • Used Abatron, a 2 part wood epoxy, to save original trim • MacGyvered 2x4s so I could reach the pediment above the porch roof • Secured the ladder with my trusty tie-downs so it wouldn’t twist or slide • Continued painting the house its softer, historic Summer Wheat color Restoring an old house isn’t glamorous; it’s slow, scary, sweaty, and half of the battle happens in your head. But every step (and every shaky climb) gets this home closer to the beauty it deserves. If you love old home chaos, paint transformations, wood epoxy magic, or watching someone fight their fear of heights for the sake of history… welcome back. 💛 👉 Want to help save more endangered historic homes?
