Family room - mid-sized rustic look-out dark wood floor and gray floor family room idea in DC Metro with gray walls and no fireplace

See that gross, stinky puddle of water? That has been constantly seeping into this home owner’s drinking water ever since they had their irrigation system installed years ago.
Sloppy irrigation installs can easily contaminate your water supply, so please please please make sure you are hiring a LICENSED landscape contractor whenever getting irrigation work done at your home.
We discovered this issue during a backflow test, and were able to bring it up to code immediately. Now the home can be sure that their water is safe and clean, and the backflow assembly is working as it should.
This is a health issue, and your family’s clean drinking water is worth the cost. It is required by law to have your backflow assembly tested annually, and that is simply there to protect us all.
So give us a call, we guarantee that we will be out testing your backflow within a week of your request, and because we are fully licensed, we can also make any repairs needed if it doesn’t pass. We also design and install safe, water wise irrigation systems in Bend, Redmond, Sisters and Tumalo.

This room was taken from dismal to fresh and timeless. The design began with an application of off-white paint which served to lighten and brighten the space. Ceilings, from the front door to the great room, receive special treatment with blue paint in a shade that brought the sky inside, expanding the feeling of spaciousness. Furnishings and draperies in multiple shades of blue, from aqua to indigo, feel fresh and pretty. The sectional provides plenty of lounging space for a growing family in a classic design that is sure to pass the test of time.

From grand estates, to exquisite country homes, to whole house renovations, the quality and attention to detail of a "Significant Homes" custom home is immediately apparent.

ZeroEnergy Design (ZED) created this modern home for a progressive family in the desirable community of Lexington.
Thoughtful Land Connection. The residence is carefully sited on the infill lot so as to create privacy from the road and neighbors, while cultivating a side yard that captures the southern sun. The terraced grade rises to meet the house, allowing for it to maintain a structured connection with the ground while also sitting above the high water table. The elevated outdoor living space maintains a strong connection with the indoor living space, while the stepped edge ties it back to the true ground plane. Siting and outdoor connections were completed by ZED in collaboration with landscape designer Soren Deniord Design Studio.
Exterior Finishes and Solar. The exterior finish materials include a palette of shiplapped wood siding, through-colored fiber cement panels and stucco. A rooftop parapet hides the solar panels above, while a gutter and site drainage system directs rainwater into an irrigation cistern and dry wells that recharge the groundwater.
Cooking, Dining, Living. Inside, the kitchen, fabricated by Henrybuilt, is located between the indoor and outdoor dining areas. The expansive south-facing sliding door opens to seamlessly connect the spaces, using a retractable awning to provide shade during the summer while still admitting the warming winter sun. The indoor living space continues from the dining areas across to the sunken living area, with a view that returns again to the outside through the corner wall of glass.
Accessible Guest Suite. The design of the first level guest suite provides for both aging in place and guests who regularly visit for extended stays. The patio off the north side of the house affords guests their own private outdoor space, and privacy from the neighbor. Similarly, the second level master suite opens to an outdoor private roof deck.
Light and Access. The wide open interior stair with a glass panel rail leads from the top level down to the well insulated basement. The design of the basement, used as an away/play space, addresses the need for both natural light and easy access. In addition to the open stairwell, light is admitted to the north side of the area with a high performance, Passive House (PHI) certified skylight, covering a six by sixteen foot area. On the south side, a unique roof hatch set flush with the deck opens to reveal a glass door at the base of the stairwell which provides additional light and access from the deck above down to the play space.
Energy. Energy consumption is reduced by the high performance building envelope, high efficiency mechanical systems, and then offset with renewable energy. All windows and doors are made of high performance triple paned glass with thermally broken aluminum frames. The exterior wall assembly employs dense pack cellulose in the stud cavity, a continuous air barrier, and four inches exterior rigid foam insulation. The 10kW rooftop solar electric system provides clean energy production. The final air leakage testing yielded 0.6 ACH 50 - an extremely air tight house, a testament to the well-designed details, progress testing and quality construction. When compared to a new house built to code requirements, this home consumes only 19% of the energy.
