For this complete yard renovation in the Weddington/Matthews area, our team executed a total lawn transformation featuring top-tier Zeon Zoysia sod—a premium, fine-bladed grass variety chosen for its exceptional shade tolerance and carpet-like density. To ensure long-term health and flawless root establishment, we first tackled proper site preparation by excavating and hauling away roughly 7 cubic yards of poor, sandy soil left behind by a previous installer. Once the sub-base was correctly graded, enriched, and prepped, we installed 36 pallets of fresh sod to create a vibrant, seamless lawn.
To guarantee the new lawn would thrive, our technicians carefully calibrated the property's irrigation system, setting zone run-times and coverage angles for optimal moisture distribution without overwatering. The before-and-after contrast highlights the value of proper site prep and high-quality materials, taking a bare, uneven dirt lot and turning it into a plush, golf-course-quality front lawn. At Pine Valley Turf Management, we pride ourselves on delivering detailed turf transformations that elevate property value and leave our clients thrilled with the results.

Adjacent to the living area, the open kitchen includes a large waterfall island, custom cooking station, premium stone surfaces, and full-height cabinetry designed for both daily functionality and entertaining. Exposed wood beams add warmth and structural character, while the statement metal ceiling detail strengthens the architectural identity of the space.
Every detail of this project was coordinated early—from layout planning to finish execution—to ensure the final result feels refined, intentional, and built for long-term living.

This Chicago luxury home renovation was designed to create a strong first impression through a refined entryway that balances architecture, function, and modern living. The space features a custom residential elevator seamlessly integrated beside the staircase, creating both accessibility and a striking architectural focal point within the home.
Clean-lined stair detailing, warm wood flooring, a modern chandelier, and carefully planned natural light work together to create an open and elevated arrival experience. The custom fireplace wall and open layout further strengthen the connection between the foyer, living spaces, and the rest of the home.
Integrating a residential elevator into a historic urban footprint required precise structural coordination and early planning to ensure both functionality and visual balance. The result is a sophisticated entry sequence designed for long-term living and timeless appeal.

Bright, Functional Basement Remodel Designed for Everyday Living
This basement transformation focused on creating a warm, inviting space where the whole family could relax, entertain, and unwind. The goal was simple: turn an underutilized lower level into a comfortable extension of the home — without sacrificing durability or long-term value.
A neutral color palette keeps the space light and open, while recessed LED lighting throughout eliminates dark corners and enhances ceiling height. New plush carpeting adds comfort underfoot, making the space ideal for movie nights, game days, and everyday lounging.
Strategically placed support columns were integrated seamlessly into the layout, preserving structural integrity while maintaining open sightlines across the room. The flexible floor plan allows for multiple zones — including a dedicated media area, gaming space, and additional room for hobbies or future customization.
Clean trim details, fresh paint, updated doors, and cohesive finishes give the basement a polished, finished feel that mirrors the quality of the main living levels upstairs.
At Hillview Custom Renovations, we believe basements should feel intentional — not like an afterthought. This project demonstrates how thoughtful planning and quality craftsmanship can transform a lower level into one of the most loved spaces in the home.

Step into one of our most cherished client’s homes for yet another transformation of their amazing space. Project Manager, Tony Cicchino; Designer, Justina Auer; and TWO of our crews once again knocked it out of the park for this long-term client. Our team breathed new life into the exterior of this home by creating unmatched curb appeal. Gone is the old, tired façade, replaced with a refreshing sage green siding that radiates sophistication. The custom portico elevates the home’s grandeur to new heights and creates a welcoming view every time you pull into the driveway. Venturing inside, the transformation continues in the great room where we carefully selected new windows and pocket doors to match the rest of the interior. To maintain the integrity of the space, we opted for an almost identical bamboo flooring to match the existing style found throughout the rest of the home. One of the focal point of any great room is the fireplace, and this project was no exception. With meticulous attention to detail, a Cambria Quartz hearthstone was artfully installed, providing the perfect finishing touch to the splendor of the room. We can’t wait to see what the homeowners have in mind for their next renovation with Bennett!
