When a water leak damaged our client’s master bathroom, they knew they didn’t want to just repair the damage but update the space. We started with a clean slate after removing the tub, shower, vanity, toilet, walls, the lighting, and even the subflooring before creating their luxury bathroom. The bathroom features a large shower with a seat and four niches created with polished marble tile and Calcutta quartz accents and a frameless glass door with shower guard glass protection. We opened up the space to make room for the new comfort height toilet and a large linen cabinet. We installed beautiful marble tile flooring in a herringbone pattern. We went with the finer touches such as soft close for the vanity and linen cabinet doors and drawers and even an upgrade soft close toilet seat. The existing entry door was replaced with a stained black pocket door. And, of course, it also has to have soft open and close features. The smoky grey Shaker style cabinets are complimented by a beautifully veined Calcutta Quartz countertop complete with undermount porcelain dual sinks. The new large vanity mirror topped with new vanity lighting and the crystal chandelier hanging from a ceiling medallion completes this exquisite bathroom.

On the exterior we removed the existing damaged and deteriorated stone cladding and replaced it with new modern and durable materials. The two-tone siding creates a contrast and variation while highlighting certain areas of the façade. New large windows throughout bring in more natural light. The new angled and custom made windows help accentuate the sloped roof lines and midcentury character of the house. Clear story windows were added at the high roof to activate what was originally a largely visible blank wall and bring more light to the 2nd floor. The front and rear decks were rebuilt and a sunken patio was created at the rear for more functional outdoor space.

Kitchen - contemporary u-shaped light wood floor and beige floor kitchen idea in Orange County with shaker cabinets, white cabinets, stainless steel appliances, an island and white countertops

Way back in the late 1970s, the owners of an 1894 Victorian in Somerville hired Charlie Allen Renovations to renovate and restore their home, a landmark property that had been divided into apartments and lost some of its period charm. This was a memorable project and it was a shock when the homeowners called in December 2014 to let us know that their home had been badly damaged by a fire. They asked if we could once again restore it to its original prominence. This time nearly every original element of the home needed to be restored or rebuilt. We began the process by carefully removing all original moulding and paneling, which was then catalogued, thoroughly cleaned, and stored away. Belfor, a property restoration firm, was hired to remove soot and smoky odors, which required opening the walls and then rebuilding them. Numerous decorative elements throughout the home, including an intricate stained glass window in the dining room, had been too badly damaged to be restored; these were carefully remade by both our talented team and by an exceptional group of project partners, to match their original design. All of the windows in the house had to be replaced, and all of its floors needed to be refinished. Tile hearth surrounding the dining room fireplace and the living room fireplace mantel and surround were removed, cleaned, and replaced. The homeowners also took the opportunity to have some long-desired renovations accomplished, including remodeling the outdated kitchen, which now features an expansive island, pantry closet, new cork flooring, backsplash, and greenhouse window. Today, the house is fully both meticulously restored and remodeled, and the owners are happily back home. At its conclusion, the project was awarded with the Somerville Historic Preservation Commission’s 2017 Directors Award and a 2018 Contractor of the Year Gold Award. Along with Belfor, additional project partners include Jackson Schillaci Woodworking, master finisher Wayne Towle, and Jim Anderson Stained Glass. Photo by Shelly Harrison

Enclosed kitchen - small traditional galley medium tone wood floor enclosed kitchen idea in Atlanta with a farmhouse sink, shaker cabinets, blue cabinets, white backsplash, subway tile backsplash, stainless steel appliances and no island

This project involved a hardwood floor repair and refinish in historic Mission Hills, San Diego. The floor is rift and quartered red oak, with a herringbone pattern, and a padauk feature strip border in the dining room. The floor is stained with Duraseal medium brown stain and finished with three coats of Basic Coatings satin water based finish. The flooring was badly damaged from a second floor plumbing leak, and a fair amount of flooring was replaced with new rift and quartered red oak. The results of the repair and refinish speak for themselves. We were able to save the majority of the floor, and the repairs blended seamlessly.

Part of the Modin Vinyl Plank Collection, Available Exclusively From www.Flooret.com $3.49 / sq ft, 22.08 sq ft per box 50% WIDER. 25% LONGER. TWICE AS DURABLE Luxury Vinyl Plank, 5 mm x 9" x 60" (1.0 mm / 40 mil wear-layer) Lifetime Residential Warranty, 20 year Commercial Warranty Weathered and refined. Grey floors have become the hottest design trend, but not all greys are the same. For Nevis, we aim to provide a pattern that errs to the modern side, while still evoking some rustic elements. This isn't outright reclaimed, but it's just wild enough to not be monotone either. REDEFINING DURABILITY The most important specification for determining the durability of vinyl flooring is the thickness of the wear-layer. The best wear-layers are made of thick, clear virgin PVC, which covers the paper print-film that gives the floor its unique appearance. Once the wear-layer wears through, the paper is damaged and the floor will need replacement. Most vinyl floors come with a 8-12 mil wear-layer (0.2-3 mm). The top commercial specs in the industry are higher, at 20-22 mil (0.5 mm). A select few manufacturers offer a "super" commercial spec of 28 mil (0.7 mm). For Modin, we decided to set a new standard: 40 mil (1.0 mm) of premium virgin PVC. This allows us to offer an industry-leading 20 year Commercial Warranty (Lifetime Residential), compared to nearly all other commercial vinyl floors' 10 year Commercial Warranty. Beyond our superior wear-layer, we also use a patented click mechanism for superior hold, and a ceramic-bead coating. SIZE MATTERS Wider and longer planks create a sense of space and luxury. Most vinyl floors come in 6" or 7" widths, and 36" or 48" lengths. For Modin, we designed our planks to be 9" wide, and 60" long. This extra large size allows our gorgeous designs to be fully expressed. DETAILS THAT COUNT We made sure to get all the details right. Real texture, to create the feel of wire-brushed wood. Low sheen level, to ensure a natural look that wears well over time. 4-sided bevels, to more accurately emulate the look of real planks. When added together they help create the unique look that is Modin. DESIGNS THAT INSPIRE We spent nearly a year just focusing on our designs, to ensure they provide the right mix of color and depth. Focusing on timeless wire-brush and European Oak styles, as well as more contemporary modern washes, our collection offers truly beautiful design that is both functional and inspiring.

Apart from the bathroom, the kitchen is the most used part of the house and giving the area a makeover will give your home an instant facelift.

It does require a lot of work and you will need the help of a professional to make this project a success. Finding a Yakima remodeling contractor is not that difficult anymore. You will even find that our company specializes in both bathroom and kitchen remodeling. It might even save you some money if you have both these areas done at the same time. Whether you are wanting your kitchen completely remodeled or you are just wanting an update to your cabinets, flooring, or countertops. We are happy to talk to you about your options. Sometimes your cabinet boxes can be in great shape, but you want a new look for your kitchen. A cost effective solution would be to reface your existing boxes with new face frames, doors, and drawer fronts. Add a new counter top, whether it it be a solid style top like granite, tile, or economical but attractive laminate, and your old dated kitchen has a new look you will enjoy for many years.

Mid-sized transitional backyard brick patio photo in Jacksonville with a fire pit and no cover

This couple was ready for some major changes in their home on north Euclid in Upland, CA. After completing their nursery last year, they asked for help designing their family room. Everything had to go! The brick fireplace, the TV niche next to the fireplace, the wet bar…none of it portrayed my client’s taste or style in any way. They requested a space that was modern, not fussy, clean and contemporary. I achieved this look by transforming the fireplace wall with limestone and paneled walls with hidden storage behind where the TV niche used to be. Other features that helped in this transformation are updated recessed and accent lighting, fixtures, window coverings, sleek, contemporary furnishings, art and accessories. The existing carpet was replaced with dark wood flooring that seamlessly meets the new limestone fireplace hearth that runs the distance of the entire focal wall. A roadblock popped up when we found out the SMALLEST WALL in the house that was part of the existing wet bar turned out to be where the main plumbing and electrical were housed. Instead of spending the exorbitant amount of money that it would’ve cost to remove this wall, I instead turned the unused wet bar into a functional feature with oodles of storage on one side and a wall niche on the opposite to display art. Now this space is a functional and comfortable room in their house where they can relax and spend time with family.

Black siding transformed this home in Maple Grove. This project left a lasting impression, transforming a home with worn and outdated vinyl siding which had been damaged by hail and Minnesota’s harsh climate, in a lakeside retreat. The homeowners sought a fresh look that would elevate both the aesthetic and functionality of their property, making the most of the beautiful lakeside views. The first major update involved replacing the tired vinyl siding with James Hardie board and batten siding in the striking Shou Sugi Ban color. This deep, rich color brings an elegant, modern look to the home, offering both timeless appeal and exceptional durability. The board and batten style adds texture and sophistication, making the home stand out in the neighborhood. To complement the dark siding, light-colored cultured stone was added to the front and lakeside, creating a beautiful contrast and enhancing the home’s curb appeal. The cultured stone not only adds a natural, rustic feel but also integrates seamlessly with the overall design, providing a warm, inviting entrance and lakeside view. Another key element of the remodel was the transformation of the home’s windows. A bank of smaller windows was removed, replaced by a massive Marvin window that now serves as the focal point of the living room, offering unobstructed views of the serene lake. The project also included the removal of several diamond-shaped windows and a six-foot patio door, which were replaced with a sleek 16-foot patio door. This new installation opened up the space, flooding the home with natural light and creating a seamless connection between the interior and the outdoor beauty of the lake. With these updates, the home in Maple Grove is now a stunning showcase of modern design and functionality, blending sophisticated materials with breathtaking views.
