Your pipes are one of the most important parts of your plumbing system. They connect each part of your entire plumbing system together, so if they start to have problems, it will effect the entire system. If you’re starting to see leaks in your pipes or lower water pressure, you may have pipes that are perfect candidates for repiping.
Many older homes still have galvanized pipes in their plumbing systems, and this can start to create problems. In more recent years, copper pipes have become a preferred choice for home plumbing. Our Big Bear water pipe experts can repair or replace all or part of your plumbing’s pipe system, so your plumbing will be more efficient, and you won’t have nearly as many problems arising.
All of our Big Bear water pipe experts are professionally trained and extensively experienced. So at every single job, we can guarantee your complete satisfaction with our work. All of our repairs will be thorough and accurate, and we’ll always be professional, courteous, and respectful. We know you’ll be looking forward to getting back to your home life, so we’ll get the work done as quickly as possible, but we’ll never sacrifice quality for speed.

The Interior Design
The Sequoia is simple and understated luxury, topped off with modern farmhouse appeal. Designed with form, function and livability in mind, this amazing layout appeals to all. In a world that is ever-changing and hectic (social media, technology and increased demands), this home is designed to calm and sooth the soul once you step inside. Designer Grace Covington (GC Luxury Homes) brings eclectic farmhouse and modern design elements together to create a refined yet relaxed environment. The use of current colors, textiles, finishes and products blended with decor that reminds one of their favorite family memories, bring personality and warmth to this home. Meridian Ranch is a beautiful setting with amazing views of the mountains and Pikes Peak, so particular care was taken to select finishes and decor reminiscent of a peaceful country life. Muted tones of greige with surprising pops of color, creative use of woods, sleek lighting and bath fixtures, modern tile-work and the sprinkling of cottage textures throughout- this home is gorgeous! Tranquil luxury in a beautiful and vibrant community - the Sequoia is the perfect home!

Our clients in Tower Lakes, IL, needed more storage and functionality from their kitchen. They were primarily focused on finding the right combination of cabinets, shelves, and drawers that fit all their cookware, flatware, and appliances. They wanted a brighter, bigger space with a natural cooking flow and plenty of storage. Soffits and crown molding needed to be removed to make the kitchen feel larger. Redesign elements included: relocating the fridge, adding a baking station and coffee bar, and placing the microwave in the kitchen island.
Advance Design Studio’s Claudia Pop offered functional, creative, and unique solutions to the homeowners’ problems. Our clients wanted a unique kitchen that was not completely white, a balance of design and function. Claudia offered functional, creative, and unique solutions to Chad and Karen’s kitchen design challenges. The first thing to go was soffits. Today, most kitchens can benefit from the added height and space; removing soffits is nearly always step one. Steely gray-blue was the color of choice for a freshly unique look bringing a sophisticated-looking space to wrap around the fresh new kitchen. Cherry cabinetry in a true brown stain compliments the stormy accents with sharp contrasting white Cambria quartz top balancing out the space with a dramatic flair.
“We wanted something unique and special in this space, something none of the neighbors would have,” said Claudia.
The dramatic veined Cambria countertops continue upward into a backsplash behind three complimentary open shelves. These countertops provide visual texture and movement in the kitchen. The kitchen includes two larder cabinets for both the coffee bar and baking station. The kitchen is now functional and unique in design.
“When we design a new kitchen space, as designers, we are always looking for ways to balance interesting design elements with practical functionality,” Claudia said. “This kitchen’s new design is not only way more functional but is stunning in a way a piece of art can catch one’s attention.”
Decorative mullions with mirrored inserts sit atop dual sentinel pantries flanking the new refrigerator, while a 48″ dual fuel Wolf range replaced the island cooktop and double oven. The new microwave is cleverly hidden within the island, eliminating the cluttered counter and attention-grabbing wall of stainless steel from the previous space.
The family room was completely renovated, including a beautifully functional entertainment bar with the same combination of woods and stone as the kitchen and coffee bar. Mesh inserts instead of plain glass add visual texture while revealing pristine glassware. Handcrafted built-ins surround the fireplace.
The beautiful and efficient design created by designer Claudia transitioned directly to the installation team seamlessly, much like the basement project experience Chad and Karen enjoyed previously.
“We definitely will and have recommended Advance Design Studio to friends who are looking to embark on a project small or large,” Karen said.
“Everything that was designed and built exactly how we envisioned it, and we are really enjoying it to its full potential,” Karen said.
Our award-winning design team would love to create a beautiful, functional, and spacious place for you and your family. With our “Common Sense Remodeling” approach, the process of renovating your home has never been easier. Contact us today at 847-665-1711 or schedule an appointment.

Down a private lane and sited on an oak studded lot, this charming Kott home has been transformed with contemporary finishes and clean line design. Vaulted ceilings create light filled spaces that open to outdoor living. Modern choices of Italian tiles combine with hardwood floors and newly installed carpets. Fireplaces in both the living and family room. Dining room with picture window to the garden. Kitchen with ample cabinetry, newer appliances and charming eat-in area. The floor plan includes a gracious upstairs master suite and two well-sized bedrooms and two full bathrooms downstairs. Solar, A/C, steel Future Roof and dual pane windows and doors all contribute to the energy efficiency of this modern design.

The classic silhouette and multiple finish and mounting options of the Light Cast Max ceiling fan by Monte Carlo make it a universal choice for any décor and room size. Featuring an integrated uplight for ceiling glow, the Light Cast Max is also adaptable with many downlight kits, offered as options. The blades are dual-finished for a customized look, and also beveled, which results in better air flow, increased energy efficiency, and tailored appearance.

Here you'll see the effect that even a small enhancement can give. Note the addition of the glass and metallic mosaics to the outer edge of the shower surround and inside back of the cubby spaces. New and more efficient recessed shower lights were added above the tub and shower.

The bathroom, once dated and closed in, was completely reimagined as a private retreat inspired by luxury spas. The design centers around a serene material palette dominated by marble textures, brass fixtures, and warm wood accents. A St. James vanity in a rich, earthy finish grounds the space, while brass hardware introduces elegance and contrast.
Integrated lighting, a minimalist mirror, and clean lines contribute to the bathroom’s calming atmosphere. Every element is functional yet beautiful—ensuring the space is as efficient as it is indulgent. Small design choices—like hidden storage and layered lighting—support daily routines while elevating the overall experience of the space.
