These clients retained MMI to assist with a full renovation of the 1st floor following the Harvey Flood. With 4 feet of water in their home, we worked tirelessly to put the home back in working order. While Harvey served our city lemons, we took the opportunity to make lemonade. The kitchen was expanded to accommodate seating at the island and a butler's pantry. A lovely free-standing tub replaced the former Jacuzzi drop-in and the shower was enlarged to take advantage of the expansive master bathroom. Finally, the fireplace was extended to the two-story ceiling to accommodate the TV over the mantel. While we were able to salvage much of the existing slate flooring, the overall color scheme was updated to reflect current trends and a desire for a fresh look and feel. As with our other Harvey projects, our proudest moments were seeing the family move back in to their beautifully renovated home.

Subsequent updates in the primary bathroom centered around aesthetics. In the main bath area, the sinks, faucets, and countertop in the vanity were replaced with elegant venetian gold granite. A new large, framed mirror, two towel rings, and fresh light fixtures were also added. Cabinets received a makeover, painted in a timeless off-white shade, while dated cabinet knobs were swapped with new ones that harmonized with the overall look of the bathroom. In addition, we replaced the toilet, exhaust fan, and light fixture in the water closet. We replaced all the flooring in the main bath area, water closet, and closet and treated all the walls, ceilings, doors, and trim to fresh coats of paint. Walls were adorned with a tasteful beige hue, while trim and doors were finished in pristine bright white.
