I was contacted by a client in Kendal to see if I could help with their Black Flagstone basement floor. As you can see from the photographs it was in a bit of a state and the stone looked mostly White rather than Black. I carried out a site visit, to survey the floor and work out the best approach to restore its appearance. After testing a few different products and techniques I worked out an effective restoration plan and discussed this with the owner. Happy with my plan and costing’s we agreed a date to start the work. Being in the basement of the property had its challenges but it would mean we could work socially distanced from the owner. To restore the floors appearance, I started with a set of coarse wire (60 and 120 grit) brushes lubricated with Tile Doctor Remove and Go which is a strong coatings remover. I had considered using milling pads on the tiles to reveal a new surface underneath but that does involve the use of an expensive set of coarse pads and given it was a basement the owners didn’t feel the extra expense would be justified. The wire grits work well on rough stone floors when attached to a weighted buffing machine and we add some Tile Doctor Remove and Go to the mix. Once clean the floor was rinsed with water and the slurry extracted using an industrial wet vacuum. After cleaning the floor, it looked transformed, some pointing was required so we carried this out after the main clean. The stone was left to dry out for a few days before returning to apply a sealer. For this floor I felt Tile Doctor X-Tra seal would be the best product and applied two coats. I chose X-Tra seal for this job as it ticks a lot of boxes, it’s a breathable oil-based resin sealer which being breathable will allow moisture to rise through the floor. Old floors like this don’t have a damp proof membrane so it is important to choose a sealer that can allow the floor to breath and not let damp build up under the floor where it can reach out to the walls and cause rising damp. I also chose X-Tra Seal as it has a great ability to bring out the colour of the darker stone due to its high oil content, the oil will deter salts from forming if efflorescence is an issue. This is a unique property of this sealer as we never know if efflorescent salts are going to form or not so having this in place as a sealer is a great plus for a Tile Doctor, it is new to the market and is already proving popular on floors like this and for protecting external stone. If the tiles are smooth Tile Doctor X-Tra Seal adds a bit of a sheen to the appearance of the stone however this stone was very rough, so we didn’t manage a shine, but the customer was happy with the matt finish and the slightly honed effect. The floor looked great and much more appealing making the space more attractive and likely to be used. For aftercare I recommended Tile Doctor Neutral Tile Cleaner which will clean the floor without impacting the sealer which can be a problem with many of the stronger products you find in supermarkets.

Robin Stancliff photo credits. For this bathroom, my client wanted a very light and open feel with interesting accent points. The bathroom was a complete gut, and we were able to keep the design fee fairly minimal by using the same materials from the client’s master bathroom in new and creative ways. None of the plumbing or electrical elements needed to move, so that helped keep costs low as well. As the bathroom is rather small, we had to think outside of the box for creating display areas, which is how we decided to use the floating shelves to display decorations and give the bathroom a more inviting feel. The tile in the bathroom is a marble-look porcelain, which allows for easy cleaning and maintenance. A very unique element of this bathroom is the barn-door style glass shower door. The shower also features small corner shelves to store toiletries as needed. I placed LED lighting throughout the bathroom and added a frameless beveled edge mirror to help keep the room as minimal as possible. With a white under-mount sink and a leather-finished countertop, the vanity is clean and simple while still remaining stylish and modern. I integrated custom tile work throughout the shower and vanity to effectively tie the design of the bathroom together and add a modern flair to a clean, bright, and minimal space.

Kim Roberts, owner of Staging Beautifully, has a passion for creating beautiful spaces. From home staging to redecorating, Kim’s relaxed and friendly approach make even the most challenging project fun and enjoyable. For those interested in refreshing their space, Staging Beautifully can assist a homeowner in decorating their home with the items they already own and love. Like staging, redesign may include color selection, rearranging furniture, hanging art and placing accessories. It is a cost effective design alternative which will give your home a facelift without the cost of an Interior Designer. Utilizing your furnishings and treasures, we will shop your home to find new and creative ways to display your family’s possessions. This will result in a complete interior transformation which will reflect your personality, style, comfort and functionality to your living space without having to buy anything. Looking to sell your home, consider home staging to target a higher selling price. Home Staging aims to de-personalize your home and make it appealing to virtually all prospective buyers. The way you live in your home and the way you market your home are two very different things. Your home is competing with every other home on the market. A home that looks like it needs work or isn't move-in ready prompts buyers to low-ball their offers, or eliminate your home from consideration all together. Those homes that are staged to reflect current trends attract and appeal to more buyers, resulting in more offers, faster sales, and higher sale prices. Sometimes, an agent may even recommend your price be increased once your home is staged! A well-staged home can even start a bidding war with multiple offers!

The homeowner of this old, detached garage wanted to create a functional living space with a kitchen, bathroom and second-story bedroom, while still maintaining a functional garage space. We salvaged hickory wood for the floors and built custom fir cabinets in the kitchen with patchwork tile backsplash and energy efficient appliances. As a historical home but without historical requirements, we had fun blending era-specific elements like traditional wood windows, French doors, and wood garage doors with modern elements like solar panels on the roof and accent lighting in the stair risers. In preparation for the next phase of construction (a full kitchen remodel and addition to the main house), we connected the plumbing between the main house and carriage house to make the project more cost-effective. We also built a new gate with custom stonework to match the trellis, expanded the patio between the main house and garage, and installed a gas fire pit to seamlessly tie the structures together and provide a year-round outdoor living space.

We have seen it all. This house is gorgeous, with newly remodeled kitchen and family room addition, beautiful furnishings with lovely decor. When the client's told us their owner's suite bathroom was scary we didn't believe them. Now, this space wasn't scary, but it definitely needed help. One small vanity tucked away in a corner and duct tape holding tile up in the shower, to name a few of the issues. After interviewing a few contractors, we moved forward with Integrity Remodeling & Design Group. We completely changed the layout to have a double vanity, relocated the toilet to be able to remove a wall, and increase the shower size three times over. This time without the use of duct tape. The homeowner's repurposed the furniture linen closet by re-painting and installing new hardware, making it a perfect cost-effective storage solution. This space is not only timelessly beautiful it now matches the rest of the home's impeccable design.

If we want to be honest with ourselves, we have to admit that buying new furniture has never been an easy task or something that you do with a snap of your fingers (unless you're a millionaire, that is). It has always been a somewhat tiring (albeit exciting) and a definitely complicated affair that affected both our finances and our household for some time. Especially when you're not thinkiing in the categories of buying the so called disposable furniture that costs very little, but also lasts very little. When you want real furniture, you have to pay a little more. What you might not know though, that it is not as much as many stores and sellers would like to tell you. You can get perfectly good, stylish and comfortable furniture straight from us. Our mission is to bring great quality into everything we do. We want to invade every home and we make our prices affordable. Our furniture is made of synthetic rattan and other very solid, durable material, which combined – give a really stunning effect. In our stores you'll find everything from sofas to dining sets. This way you can certainly fix more than just your patio as our furniture fits nicely both in the exteriors and interiors.

Real estate agents know that in any market, the properties that sell the quickest are move-in ready homes. While most homes do not require a complete remodel, many could benefit from a quick home refresh before selling to appeal to modern homebuyers. Pre-listing house refreshes include minor home improvement projects or cosmetic updates. They are a cost-effective way to help a home sell faster and for top dollar. Normal wear and tear or changes in design trends can leave homes needing a few updates before hitting the market. To refresh a home before listing, we work to appeal to more buyers with cosmetic updates that pull modern design elements into the existing floor plan of a house. A pre-listing home refresh includes projects that are more extensive than repairs and touch-ups but typically do not require any permits. Our projects also take less time than traditional general contractor work, so this option is great for sellers looking to move quickly.
