“Home” is in the Valley…Designed & Built
What a difference the right curb appeal can make. It plays a significant role in that warm, inviting feeling you get when you return. A well-maintained lawn, vibrant flowers lining the walkway, and a charming front brick porch adorned with cozy seating was designed and built to create an immediate sense of welcome.
The outdoor colors of the exterior hardscapes evoke a feeling of sophistication, tranquility and cheerfulness, especially how it complements the surrounding landscape. A tasteful front door, framed by decorative plants, draws you in and hints at the warmth inside.
Details like outdoor lighting, decorative house numbers and seasonal wreath add character and shows that the home is loved and cared for.
Each time you pull onto the brick paver driveway, it reminds you of the comfort and joy that awaits inside, making every return feel like a heartfelt reunion.
A lifetime of memories will be made here and become some of the most cherished moments in our clients lives as well as their friends and family.
Ultimately, it’s the everyday moments—the small, simple pleasures—that weave the fabric of memories in a cozy home, making it a sanctuary filled with love, laughter, and lasting joy.

With less than 12 inches of rain annually and minimal irrigation potential this site was an interesting design challenge. Choosing the right species of native grasses and flowers was essential. Combined with simple rock and cactus arrangements the landscape is returning from barren and weedy to wild high plans prairie. All the rocks for this project were gathered from the surrounding juniper sage forest.

The kitchen was designed two years ago and was then erased and redesigned when the world became a different place a year later. As everyone attempted to flatten the curve, our goal in this regard was to create a kitchen that looked forward to a sharp curve down and of a happier time To that promise for happier times, the redesign, a goal was to make the kitchen brighter and more optimistic. This was done by using simple, primary shapes and circular pendants and emphasizing them in contrast, adding a playful countenance. The selection of a dynamic grain of figured walnut also contributes as this once-living material and its sinuous grain adds motion, rhythm, and scale.
Proud of their 1970s home, one challenge of the design was to balance a 1970's feel and stay current. However, many ‘70s references looked and felt outdated. The first step was a changed mindset. Just like the return of the ‘40s bath and the retro movement a few years ago, every era returns in some way. Chronologically, the '70s will soon be here. Our design looked to era-specific furniture and materials of the decade. Figured walnut was so pervasive in the era: this motif was used on car exteriors such as the 1970 Town and Country Station Wagon, which debuted the same year the existing home was built. We also looked at furniture specific to the decade. The console stereo is referenced not only by high legs on the island but also by the knurled metal cabinet knobs reminiscent of often-used stereo dials. Knurled metalwork is also used on the kitchen faucet. The design references the second piece of '70s furniture in our modern TV tray, which is angled to face the television in the family room. Its round pencil and mug holder cutouts follow the design of walnut consoles and dashboard of the station wagon and other elements of the time.

Scott and Janet of Elgin have had four design to build renovations with Advance Design over the last decade. We got the chance to sit down and talk with Janet about her experience working with Advance Design on so many different areas of her home. Starting with her kitchen in 2009, Janet proclaimed, “The reason we kept coming back is because our first [renovation] went so extremely well, exceeding all of my expectations.”
Since their kitchen renovation with Advance Design ten years ago, Scott and Janet have also worked with Advance to remodel their master bedroom, their power room, a wet bar, and most recently their master bath. Having renovated practically every major room in the house with the team, we asked Janet what made her experience with Advance Design so special. “We went with Advance Design because we trusted them so much more, their experience, and everything that they brought. We were confident they were giving us what we wanted for the money we were spending.”
For their most recent renovation, Scott and Janet clearly knew what to expect going into their master bath renovation. They were familiar with Advance’s step by step design process that epitomizes the “Common Sense Remodeling” philosophy applied in every project Advance creates. After once again experiencing the careful budgeting analysis, the pointed design meetings, and the clear documentation that leads up the a thoroughly managed installation, Janet’s simple summary of their experience is this; “The word I would use to describe the process is – collaboration!”
Working closely with Advance Design kitchen designer Michelle Lecinski, together they were able to develop a new master bath design that not only worked with their investment goal, but also made sense for their lifestyle. “Oh Michelle, my designer! I connected with her immediately. She spent time getting to know us, our lifestyle, even the setting of our house.” The threesome had a great experience designing and producing yet another successful project together.
When it came to their new project plans, Scott and Janet were interested in creating a relaxing “spa-like” experience in their master bath. One of the many ideas Michelle introduced during the design process was installing a Kohler Alteo series showerhead for a rain-like shower experience. This designer showerhead, mixed with the warm ambiance of the lighting and pebble accent running throughout the shower make for what Janet calls a “luxury spa essence”. From the oversized glass sliding door to the recessed niche for accessories, each special detail was considered and implemented intentionally so as to create the maximumly optimized use of the compact space. Not only was this transformation one of beauty and luxury, but special attention was given to every way possible to provide additional storage to maximize the functionality of the bath area as a whole.
Once design was complete and the bath construction project began in their home, making sure everything happened efficiently and on schedule became new priority number one. “Having a project manager made an enormous difference,” Janet said, “It was so worth it to hire professionals that knew exactly what they were doing. Even after all of these years, I wouldn’t change a thing.”
“It was a pleasure working together with Janet and Scott to create this beautiful space that will enhance their lives for many years,” says Michelle. “It is so much fun to get to do this job every day, I love that I can have this sort of impact on their lives by doing something for them [Janet & Scott] that comes so naturally to me!”
After reviewing the long-term relationship with clients like Scott and Janet, owner Todd Jurs had this to say, “Clients returning and asking us to transform that next area of their home really warms my heart. It reaffirms that every decision to please clients no matter what is always the right choice, and that our honesty and integrity along with the immense collective talent of this team is recognized and appreciated by those who continue to return to us year after year.” He continued to say, “I always say how blessed we truly are to be able to do what we do, and experiences like this one put a smile on my face every time.”

“Home” is in the Valley…Designed & Built
What a difference the right curb appeal can make. It plays a significant role in that warm, inviting feeling you get when you return. A well-maintained lawn, vibrant flowers lining the walkway, and a charming front brick porch adorned with cozy seating was designed and built to create an immediate sense of welcome.
The outdoor colors of the exterior hardscapes evoke a feeling of sophistication, tranquility and cheerfulness, especially how it complements the surrounding landscape. A tasteful front door, framed by decorative plants, draws you in and hints at the warmth inside.
Details like outdoor lighting, decorative house numbers and seasonal wreath add character and shows that the home is loved and cared for.
Each time you pull onto the brick paver driveway, it reminds you of the comfort and joy that awaits inside, making every return feel like a heartfelt reunion.
A lifetime of memories will be made here and become some of the most cherished moments in our clients lives as well as their friends and family.
Ultimately, it’s the everyday moments—the small, simple pleasures—that weave the fabric of memories in a cozy home, making it a sanctuary filled with love, laughter, and lasting joy.

Paul Despenas: Homeowners in Belmond, Iowa choose Everlast Polymeric Plank Siding over James Hardie Fiber Cement for one simple reason, The Warranty
Everlast Polymeric Plank Siding has a lifetime Non-Fade Protection! It holds its color! No more painting and the fiber cement siding warranty did not make that guarantee.
Here is a before and after photo from our customers and their comments!
First photo taken last summer, and the second was last week right after MWC. Crew got finished.
Much thanks to Chino, and his right hand man.
We love it! Thanks again, Bill & Kathy W.
Belmond, Ia.
Why Choose Everlast:
Everlast Advanced Composite Siding is unlike any other siding you’ve considered, and the moment you see it, you’ll know why. Solid construction means the planks don’t bend or bow, and align perfectly against the outer walls of your home. Everlast offers two trim collections – Premium Everlast Color-Matched Trim which is available in all 14 deep, rich colors and white cellular PVC trim* which cuts and installs just like wood.
Unlike other solid siding products, Everlast is lightweight and stackable for easy installation, yet durable enough to withstand fierce wind, scorching summer temperatures and subzero winter temperatures.
Finally, ease of care comes naturally with Everlast products. Easy-to-clean warm, low-gloss surface returns to original luster with a simple hose-down; stains like crayon, paint, and oil are removed easily with standard household cleaners (see warranty for complete cleaning instructions)
Whether you choose Everlast for its beauty, strength or ease of care, it’s a choice you can make with confidence.
Guaranteed to last, Period!
We’re proud of our product and stand behind it for life. Everlast Advanced Composite Siding is backed by a transferrable, Limited Lifetime Warranty*. In addition, Everlast is warranted against hail damage where your homeowner’s insurance may not cover.
The look of fresh-cut cedar comes from our CedarTouch® texture, and 14 beautiful colors are protected with our UV-stable acrylic polymer and backed by a Limited Lifetime Warranty*. Everlast Advanced Composite Siding will never peel; chip or blister, and it will never need to be scraped, sanded and painted.
