NEW CONSTRUCTION EMERALD HILLS, CA
This was an extraordinarily difficult project in Emerald Hills, CA. Never before had anyone taken on putting a house on this vacant lot of near solid rock. The end result is nothing short of spectacular with an outstanding view out the back of the San Francisco Bay.
AMAZING NEW FIREPLACE INSERT
This natural stucco finish for the fireplace is a huge hit with everyone.

ESTABLISHING UTILITIES FOR NEW MODERN FARMHOUSE
New Construction in Emerald Hills, CA

HILLSIDE CONSTRUCTION
Hillside construction in Emerald Hills, CA. Modern Farmhouse with an incredible view.
FUTURE ENTERTAINMENT CENTER ABOVE A FIREPLACE INSERT
The hot air venting for this fireplace insert is ideal for a large TV mounted directly above the fireplace. The planned center channel speaker location will also work to buffer some of the heat from the insert should the homeowner decide to run both the TV and fireplace at the same time.

SECOND FLOOR FRAMING IN EMERALD HILLS
On our way to completing a new 2,800 sq. ft. modern farmhouse with an integrated ADU on a hillside.
HILLSIDE FOUNDATION WITH 44 10' DEEP PIERS
This foundation took some serious work to complete. The entire lot is almost solid bedrock just below the surface. To dig the piers we had to bring in a specialized drilling company to assist us.
LOWERING REBAR PIER CAGES INTO PLACE
These handmade rebar cages get filled with concrete deep into the ground.
PIER DRILLING ON A HILLSIDE IN EMERALD HILLS
This sort of work is no joke. We had to hire three different drilling companies until one of them, American Drilling, drilled through solid bedrock and eventually reached the depth of each pier. Next time we need to pay more attention to the soils report!
RENDERINGS
Renderings help visualize the space before it is constructed. In this case, the rendering was fairly true to what was ultimately built, and the finishes used.
