Remodeling Philosophy

Since most of our remodel work is done in established communities, nearly all the residential land is already built out with houses, some well over a hundred years old. Dramatic changes in technology and lifestyle over the last few decades make these existing buildings inadequate for contemporary living. This has resulted in more than half of our work focused on turning old houses into homes that work for today’s families.

There is hardly a kitchen or a bathroom that work adequately after thirty years and modern families demand far more sharing of space in kitchens, but far less in bathrooms. Updating older homes is typically a complicated puzzle of challenges which makes it’s success that much more rewarding for us and our clients. We have worked on hundreds of older homes adding family rooms, remodeling kitchens and bathrooms, and adding more space for storage needs.

Unless we can dramatically improve the exterior design, we strive to make the house look untouched on the outside even though the interior may have been completely altered. Though we endeavor to adhere to the general style of the house in our interior alterations, sometimes it is appropriate and our client’s wish to break away from the existing architectural limitations. Because so much of our new technology is very contemporary in its design, this approach often works beautifully.

Whether just small updates of existing spaces or a complete remodel, we endeavor to make the result completely functional yet aesthetically seamless.
