What a full home renovation project looks like here

Terrace Village is the redeveloped Hill District public-housing district, rebuilt as Oak Hill mixed-income housing starting in the early 2000s.

Most stock is post-2000 and built to current PA UCC code, so retrofits are largely interior finish-grade work.

Pittsburgh Housing Authority covenants on rehabilitated units layer affordability obligations on top of standard BBI permitting.

Pittsburgh whole-home gut renovations — structural, MEP, finishes — coordinated through Pittsburgh PLI + PA HICPA + 2018 IBC permitted scope on a single residential filing. In Terrace Village specifically, post-2000 affordable-housing redevelopment + scattered pre-1950 brick singles stock means full home renovation scope is shaped by the neighborhood's dominant construction typology. Baily's Pittsburgh scoping flow factors pittsburgh steep slope overlay and pittsburgh housing authority covenants on rehabilitated stock into the estimate before a contractor is involved.

Origin

Who is Baily?

Baily is named after Francis Baily — an English stockbroker who retired at 51, became an astronomer, and in 1836 described something on the edge of a solar eclipse that nobody had properly articulated before: a string of bright beads of sunlight breaking through the valleys along the moon’s rim.

He wasn’t the first to see them. Edmond Halley saw them in 1715 and barely noticed. Baily’s contribution was clarity — describing exactly what was happening, in plain language, so vividly that the whole field of astronomy paid attention. The phenomenon is still called Baily’s beads.

That’s what we wanted our AI to do. Every inbound call and text has signal in it — a homeowner’s real question, a timeline, a budget, a hesitation that means “yes but.” Baily listens to every one, 24/7, and finds the beads of light.

Baily was a businessman before he was a scientist. That’s our vibe too.
