Paul Despenas: 25 S Louisiana Ave
Mason City, IA 50401
USA
South Louisiana Avenue in Mason City: Installed American Classic Insulated siding, Tando Shake and EcoSmart Vinyl Replacement Windows. This home will save energy and completely reduce any maintenance cost for years to come.
Chad Arndt, a 15 years sales veteran with Midwest Construction office, located at 1601-South Taft, Mason City with an Office/Showroom and warehouses worked with this homeowner to fix the problem, add energy efficiency and eliminate maintenance so they can enjoy their family time and not be a slave to the house on the weekends.
The homeowners started by replacing their windows a few at a time until that project was finished. The advantage of doing them a few at a time: Midwest Construction’s Price Lock Guarantee (as long as the homeowner purchases windows within 1 year of the installation date we will guarantee the prices will stay the same). Another big advantage was the homeowners got to live with their new EcoSmart replacement windows for all four season to make sure the windows performed like the sales representative said they would, and the installer did the job they were to do. That gives homeowners some peace of mind and comfort knowing they chose the right window and the right company.
The next project was the big one siding for the house and the 3 stall custom sized garage.
American Classic Double – 4 Insulated Premium Vinyl siding with Tando Rough Sawn Cedar Shingle Shakes to Accent the front of the house and garage.
All of the windows had been previously capped with aluminum PVC coil stock with brick mold pattern to add some contoured lines to the window casings.
All of the soffits and fascias(Eves & Overhangs) were covered with American Classic center ridge vinyl soffit and custom bent PVC aluminum coil stock to give this home true maintenance freedom.

You’re unique and your accessories should be too.
Made from durable polyresin, our Anthology Bark Mirrors are simply stunning. The organic wood shape adds a natural texture that is so on-trend right now. The antique gold finish adds insta-glam and visual sparkle and impact anywhere it’s displayed.

Another small back yard design challenge One Specialty was happy to take on. Our clients wished to remove a large planter bed against the wall and create a covered seating area in place of it. For the decking, we used Trex materials for lasting durability and easy maintenance and added new steps with lighting. The metal cantilevered pergola custom designed with shade panels provides the needed shade during the hot Texas summers. And to add more luxury, we suggested a vent-less fireplace ensuring the family could enjoy their backyard all year and our clients loved the idea!

This gorgeous home renovation was a fun project to work on. The goal for the whole-house remodel was to infuse the home with a fresh new perspective while hinting at the traditional Mediterranean flare. We also wanted to balance the new and the old and help feature the customer’s existing character pieces. Let's begin with the custom front door, which is made with heavy distressing and a custom stain, along with glass and wrought iron hardware. The exterior sconces, dark light compliant, are rubbed bronze Hinkley with clear seedy glass and etched opal interior.
Moving on to the dining room, porcelain tile made to look like wood was installed throughout the main level. The dining room floor features a herringbone pattern inlay to define the space and add a custom touch. A reclaimed wood beam with a custom stain and oil-rubbed bronze chandelier creates a cozy and warm atmosphere.
In the kitchen, a hammered copper hood and matching undermount sink are the stars of the show. The tile backsplash is hand-painted and customized with a rustic texture, adding to the charm and character of this beautiful kitchen.
The powder room features a copper and steel vanity and a matching hammered copper framed mirror. A porcelain tile backsplash adds texture and uniqueness.
Lastly, a brick-backed hanging gas fireplace with a custom reclaimed wood mantle is the perfect finishing touch to this spectacular whole house remodel. It is a stunning transformation that truly showcases the artistry of our design and construction teams.

This Year Round Betterliving Sunroom addition in Rochester, MA is a big hit with friends and neighbors alike! After seeing neighbors add a sunroom to their home – this family had to get one (and more of the neighbors followed in their footsteps, too)! Our design expert and skilled craftsmen turned an open space into a comfortable porch to keep the bugs and elements out!This style of sunroom is called a fill-in sunroom because it was built into the existing porch. Fill-in sunrooms are simple to install and take less time to build as we can typically use the existing porch to build on. All windows and doors are custom manufactured at Betterliving’s facility to fit under the existing porch roof.

This dramatic open (door-less) entry to this finished basement works beautifully .
Though removing the "typical" basement door is unusual, it nevertheless works and adds another dimension to the home.
The dramatic paneled wall along the staircase creates visual excitement and helps introduce the mill work that's in the rest of this dramatic and unusual space.

This Waukesha bathroom remodel was unique because the homeowner needed wheelchair accessibility. We designed a beautiful master bathroom and met the client’s ADA bathroom requirements.
Original Space
The old bathroom layout was not functional or safe. The client could not get in and out of the shower or maneuver around the vanity or toilet. The goal of this project was ADA accessibility.
ADA Bathroom Requirements
All elements of this bathroom and shower were discussed and planned. Every element of this Waukesha master bathroom is designed to meet the unique needs of the client. Designing an ADA bathroom requires thoughtful consideration of showering needs.
Open Floor Plan – A more open floor plan allows for the rotation of the wheelchair. A 5-foot turning radius allows the wheelchair full access to the space.
Doorways – Sliding barn doors open with minimal force. The doorways are 36” to accommodate a wheelchair.
Curbless Shower – To create an ADA shower, we raised the sub floor level in the bedroom. There is a small rise at the bedroom door and the bathroom door. There is a seamless transition to the shower from the bathroom tile floor.
Grab Bars – Decorative grab bars were installed in the shower, next to the toilet and next to the sink (towel bar).
Handheld Showerhead – The handheld Delta Palm Shower slips over the hand for easy showering.
Shower Shelves – The shower storage shelves are minimalistic and function as handhold points.
Non-Slip Surface – Small herringbone ceramic tile on the shower floor prevents slipping.
ADA Vanity – We designed and installed a wheelchair accessible bathroom vanity. It has clearance under the cabinet and insulated pipes.
Lever Faucet – The faucet is offset so the client could reach it easier. We installed a lever operated faucet that is easy to turn on/off.
Integrated Counter/Sink – The solid surface counter and sink is durable and easy to clean.
ADA Toilet – The client requested a bidet toilet with a self opening and closing lid. ADA bathroom requirements for toilets specify a taller height and more clearance.
Heated Floors – WarmlyYours heated floors add comfort to this beautiful space.
Linen Cabinet – A custom linen cabinet stores the homeowners towels and toiletries.
Style
The design of this bathroom is light and airy with neutral tile and simple patterns. The cabinetry matches the existing oak woodwork throughout the home.

Looking for an upgrade to their typical beige, builder kitchen this family was desired a timeless look reflecting their style and love of blue. White beadboard and rich knotty alder are complemented by beautiful granite with hints of blue, silver and bronze. High on the homeowners list of wants was a kitchen with room to seat five, beautiful wood floors, enhanced lighting, and a cozy desk area. In addition, two tall pantries were added in place of the old wall oven which was swapped with an efficient range/microwave hood combination. To dress up the area above the microwave, the panel has been left smooth and allows for a revolving display of photos and artwork. A reconfigured desk area becomes a focal point instead of an add-on at the end of a run and makes the refrigerator much more accessible. Improved task lighting as well as decorative lights add a flair that was lacking. Charming details, from farm sink to bridge faucet to bulletin board nailheads, bring a lovely ambiance to the room when entertaining family and friends.

Furthermore, VDom Doors insulate your home from extreme weather conditions, as well as unwanted animals, insects, and dust from entering.
Our doors have several superior features:
- Single sheet of metal is used in construction. No welded seams are best as these can significantly weaken the structural integrity of the entranceway. Our doors are also more resilient to mechanic damage, such as sledgehammer strikes.
- The advantage of a single, non-welded door is that it reduces interior internal condensation. Over time, condensation can negatively affect the door mechanisms.
- Stiffening Ribs: These non-visible details add to our door's security.
- Quality insulation serves to reduce unwanted external noise, as well as protect against extreme heat, and severe cold.
Introducing our modern exterior entrance door, a sleek and stylish addition to any contemporary home or building.

This Aliso Viejo family raised their roof with multi-generational living in mind, adding an ensuite room to the first floor, plus an office, full bathroom, laundry closet and additional bedroom upstairs!

This project scope was to add a bath accessible from the existing office and the pool. It was important to blend it into the existing home as to not look like it was an add on.
