Rebuild Existing Deck

Rebuild Existing Deck.

     On this project, our customer liked the existing look of their deck, unfortunately the condition of the deck had deteriorated over the years, rotted out decking boards, shifting and sagging foundation and beams. 
     To meet the customers needs we rebuilt a new deck for them with the existing look as a template for the design of the new deck.
     We added two beams.(Beam in center of deck not shown)
Provided good support on pads with adjustable cottage jacks.
A removable lattice skirting and a hand rail at side of step were added to the original design.(completed August 2010)

Basement development




On this project, our customers already had a bathroom previously developed and wanted to develop the rest of the basement. Together with the customer we came up with a layout design that suited their needs.
The design included 2 bedrooms, an office, pantry, and open area. Laminate flooring was installed. Breakaway post enclosures were designed to allow for adjustments if needed and provide a look the customers wanted. A total of 10 different shades of color were used to create a different feeling for each room. New windows were also installed.(completed June 2009)

Kitchen renovation:


 



  The main focus of this project was to make the kitchen roomier, functional and provide an access to a 3 season sun room. To accomplish this the existing dinning room and kitchen locations were flipped. The pass through from the living room to dinning room was closed in and new counter space, upper cabinets and lower drawer units installed on new wall space that was created. Stove  relocated to west wall and sink moved further west to allow for an entrance into 3 season sun room.

    Cork flooring was installed in Kitchen/dinning room and stair leading down to back entry.
 
      Acorns were found inside wall. Squirrels capitalized on the opportunity for a warm hiding place for their winter stores.
All possible rodent entry points were closed in when roof was re shingled and existing attic insulation was removed and new insulation added.(completed December 2011)

Attic space development

HOUSE BLEND MINISTRIES


Attic space development for, House Blend Ministries.
The scope of this project is to turn the unused attic space into 3 bedrooms and 1 bathroom.
In order to make this possible a new staircase that meets current building code is needed.
To make the new staircase to code meant that a new dormer would have to be built to provide the
correct  head room height that is needed between a stair and ceiling.(completed March 2012)
