This older couple have been residing in their one level custom home since the early 80’s. The Master bathroom old design was dysfunctional, steps in bathroom were dangerous for their age, the deck mounted tub took too much floor space, vanity space was limited. Swing doors were cutting accessibility for them. The wanted to open up the space and bring this old dragged of bathroom into a new era of design and functionality. Planned a double sided fireplace in front of the tub area, taking out all multi-level shower and tub area, enlarged the shower stall and moved the new free standing tub directly under the wall of glass blocks, We have taken advantage of tall cathedral ceiling and added new ceiling and recess lights to brighten this space. The toilet area was enclosed with a frost glass pocket and made more room for larger vanity and counter space, given them lots of storage, small closets were taken out and replaced with larger linen cabinetry. We have relocated the toilet to open up large portion of back wall, now home for his vanity space. The shower was moved to the corner, taking some space form adjacent closet. Customer framed mirror, sconce lighting has taken over the left side of pantry, will large scale tile (and heated floor) this master bathroom transformation has given them a whole new life. Carefully selected stain on cabinetry complimenting the stone top and porcelain floor and wall tiles were all a big part of this transformation. The custom closet system has given them a much-needed space for their clothing and all their seasonal clothes. Now more than ever life in their master suite is pleasurable and relaxing.

Old door dragged concrete and functioned poorly.
This is an example of a mid-sized concrete paver screened-in back porch design in Charleston.

This project involved adjusting misaligned garage door tracks for a homeowner in Skokie, IL. The door was dragging and creating noise due to uneven track positioning. Our technician realigned the tracks, tightened all hardware, lubricated the rollers, and performed a full system check. The adjustment restored smooth, quiet, and safe door movement.

The new corner doors feature 165-degree wide angle primary hinges and special pie-cut corner door hinges between the two halves. This allows the doors to operate independently from the rotating shelf unit inside the cabinet while providing full access to the interior space. The old inset corner base cabinet doors were attached to the rotating shelf unit. If the weight of the items on the shelving was not evenly distributed, the shelves could sag enough to cause the doors to drag on the face frame. The new doors eliminated that problem.

This client was tired of staring at the same old yellow walls, worn-out carpeting, and tired furniture in their main bedroom. Poor lighting added a dullness to the home, and outdated furniture dragged down the overall aesthetic. They wanted a brand new main bedroom, updating the traditional look to evoke feelings of warmth, relaxation, and just a little touch of bling! All they needed was new furniture, flooring, paint colors, and lighting to bring their new primary bedroom to life. We reimagined their primary bedroom with a beautiful new upholstered bed complete with luxury tufted silver buttons - just what they needed for a dreamy night's sleep! We also incorporated elegant recessed lighting and a mount lighting fixture with crystal accents to bring in some glam accents. The new soft cream carpeting, complete with a subtle arabesque pattern and soft gray painted walls, brought a beautiful feeling of calm to the primary bedroom while inviting wall art and pops of blue accents added visual interest to the neutral background. Finally, we completed the look with luxurious new bedding with ribbon trim details and velvet pillow covers.

You’ll want a system that delivers large drops of water close to the ground, so that little or no water is lost to evaporation, as water is applied at ground level, close to root systems. They are also designed to be smart enough not to water when it’s raining or the ground is already saturated from prior precipitation.

The Challenge: This Tarrytown property needed a refresh. The existing roof was faded and dated, dragging down the curb appeal of an otherwise stunning home in one of Austin’s most desirable neighborhoods. The owners wanted a high-impact look that would modernize the home’s profile without the massive price tag of a metal roof. The Solution: We installed the GAF Timberline HDZ in Charcoal. This deep, bold color creates a striking contrast against the home's limestone/stucco exterior, instantly giving it a "new construction" feel. Tarrytown Upgrades: The "Slate" Look: The High-Definition (HD) shadow bands of this shingle mimic the depth of expensive slate, fitting perfectly with the high-end architectural standards of Tarrytown. Infinite Wind Speed Protection: Tarrytown is full of old-growth oak trees. We used GAF’s LayerLock™ technology, which mechanically fuses the shingles to provide the industry's only infinite wind speed warranty—essential protection against falling branches and severe storms. StainGuard Plus™: To ensure the roof stays jet-black and free of algae streaks (common in shaded Tarrytown lots), this system features time-release algae-fighting capsules.

Transformed bathroom into gorgeous space. Customer selected Fieldstone cabinetry, Cherry wood species, with the JAVA stain color. Granite color and style selected was Uba Tuba. The customer selected Frameless shower doors and panels in a brushed nickle. Shower and floor tile with A Listello stripe accent.

An ADU that will be mostly used as a pool house. Large French doors with a good-sized awning window to act as a serving point from the interior kitchenette to the pool side. A slick modern concrete floor finish interior is ready to withstand the heavy traffic of kids playing and dragging in water from the pool. Vaulted ceilings with whitewashed cross beams provide a sensation of space. An oversized shower with a good size vanity will make sure any guest staying over will be able to enjoy a comfort of a 5-star hotel.

When it comes to small spaces every inch counts! The key to making them work is to think of traffic flow, and how you’re going to arrange furniture for ease of access and comfort. This gives credence to the form over function motto! For this project we knew we were expanding the indoor outdoor flow by removing a wall of the house, creating a pocket door, so the interior living room was going to merge perfectly with the new exterior living room. The first element of the design we worked out was a built-in Banco seating around a central fire pit, with cushions and exterior fabrics, that even has a one piece cover that can snap in place. This will protect the fabrics in place while the couple travels, without having to drag them through the house to the garage for storage. The second critical factor of the design was implementing an outdoor kitchen just off camera, built-in to a patio Column, so that it becomes a serving bar and the appliances are behind the bar not out in the public space. Across the water, the vanishing edge spa was the visual draw, reflecting a fruitless olive tree, all enjoyed from the fire pit seating area. The back edge of the pool features a knife edge tile to granite interface without a coping, to minimize the line between water and landscape. Last but not least, the sweeping arc curvature of the pools leading edge was done so as to ease traffic flow from the entertaining and fire seating area to the spa, and to soften the otherwise rectangular lines of the yard.
