The west facing side of this island was badly sun damaged and faded nearly white in color. Our combination of meltdown solvent and overstain restored it to its original wood tone

A project of EOL Builders, a home improvement company located in San Jose, CA. Specializing in all things home remodeling, building, and construction. This specific video showcases the during and after construction process in a residential home that required re-stucco and re-building due to damage in the rear of the home, and a cosmetic remodeling to the front, featuring front pavement remodeling, painting, and addition of stones for contrast design.

This is an organic Lime Wash done with a true lime wash product as opposed to a brick mortar or concrete that is often seen on new houses. This product can be applied as a solid coating making the surface completely white, or can be applied and "washed off" in many artistic ways, as seen here. If you hate your brick or just want something unique this is a great option!

Our clients purchased this 1940s home thinking the rundown property just needed a cosmetic makeover. As it turned out, the brick walls were damaged in places, the plumbing and wiring was outdated, there was no insulation in the walls, no air conditioning, and drafty single pane windows. When our team saw it, they thought it looked haunted!
New front door, new frieze, crown, pilasters, columns and trim around front door. New dentil molding at front of home

Engineered cedar siding creates beautiful gray-blue tones at the exterior of the home, while adding a textural element to activate the simple exterior design.

These strips of fabric are the perfect way to eliminate the sun's heat without blocking the light. It keeps the space comfortable but still bright and inviting.

This bathroom started as a dark and heavily dated space with aging finishes and years of moisture damage. The original tub/shower surround, popcorn ceiling, worn yellow flooring, and bulky wood vanity made the room feel small, tired, and neglected. Patchwork surfaces, mismatched elements, and mold growth on the ceiling highlighted the homeowner’s need for a complete transformation—both cosmetically and structurally.
The space was reimagined into a Modern Transitional retreat that feels bright, clean, and thoughtfully designed. The new layout and materials completely elevated the room:
Large-format charcoal tiles create a sleek, modern backdrop in the shower.
A deep gray vanity with brass hardware adds warmth and sophistication.
The patterned floor tile introduces a bold, graphic element that brings the design to life.
A round black-framed mirror and updated lighting deliver softness and balance.
Fresh paint, a new quartz top, upgraded fixtures, and concealed storage create functional improvement and visual calm.
The result is a bathroom that blends modern textures with timeless finishes—turning a previously outdated room into an inviting, stylish retreat.
