Exterior Painting - We stripped this door, sanded it down and stained it with a cherry stain from Sherwin Williams. Then we added a clear coat to protect it.

The design of this home was driven by the owners’ desire for a three-bedroom waterfront home that showcased the spectacular views and park-like setting. As nature lovers, they wanted their home to be organic, minimize any environmental impact on the sensitive site and embrace nature.
This unique home is sited on a high ridge with a 45° slope to the water on the right and a deep ravine on the left. The five-acre site is completely wooded and tree preservation was a major emphasis. Very few trees were removed and special care was taken to protect the trees and environment throughout the project. To further minimize disturbance, grades were not changed and the home was designed to take full advantage of the site’s natural topography. Oak from the home site was re-purposed for the mantle, powder room counter and select furniture.
The visually powerful twin pavilions were born from the need for level ground and parking on an otherwise challenging site. Fill dirt excavated from the main home provided the foundation. All structures are anchored with a natural stone base and exterior materials include timber framing, fir ceilings, shingle siding, a partial metal roof and corten steel walls. Stone, wood, metal and glass transition the exterior to the interior and large wood windows flood the home with light and showcase the setting. Interior finishes include reclaimed heart pine floors, Douglas fir trim, dry-stacked stone, rustic cherry cabinets and soapstone counters.
Exterior spaces include a timber-framed porch, stone patio with fire pit and commanding views of the Occoquan reservoir. A second porch overlooks the ravine and a breezeway connects the garage to the home.
Numerous energy-saving features have been incorporated, including LED lighting, on-demand gas water heating and special insulation. Smart technology helps manage and control the entire house.

Exterior Painting: Everything is inviting about this two story stucco house - from the fresh blue exterior paint to the beautiful landscaping and paver driveway. The red double door is the perfect accent for this house.

Built-in deck components are becoming more popular as people expand their indoor living to the great outdoors. The bench seating and planters were constructed using the same material as the deck, Fiberon's composite decking - the ProTect Advantage line in 'Chestnut'. Planter boxes, like these, add visual interest and can soften the angles of a deck or patio. Fill planters with colorful flowers, tall ornamental grasses for privacy, or fresh herbs or vegetables that are only steps away from the outdoor kitchen!

Story:
Our clients main objective was to get a light toned flooring to help carry light through their basement, while providing excellent moisture protection from the subgrade concrete. To achieve this, they selected a 10mm laminate flooring called Miller Lake, manufactured by TAS Flooring.

Fabric-Shield™ Storm Panels (also known as wind abatement screens or hurricane fabric) are a highly-effective alternative to steel or aluminum hurricane panels. The PVC-coated woven fabric panels are tested to block wind, rain, and storm-driven projectiles while being simple to handle and easy to store. The panel system attaches to the outside of windows, porches, doors – virtually any open space that you would like to protect. Fabric-Shield Storm Panels are also translucent allowing diffused light to enter so you won’t feel trapped in darkness.
