We are very excited to get started on this ground-up Willow Glen new residential construction project slated to start July, 2024..

The homeowners spared no expense on this remodel and addition project in Cambrian Park. The modern kitchen is complete with professional grade appliances, a specialty baking oven, walk-in pantry, adjacent laundry room, and faux ceiling beams throughout the kitchen and great rooms.

Faux ceiling beams make for a beautiful ceiling treatment over sheet rock. Secured with wood backing and finish nails, each beam has to be perfectly cut to avoid using filler as much as possible.

We have extremely talented fabricators that take the guess work out of the equation for us and handle all the details.

Scope of Work: Demolition of existing structure, removed basement, remodel and addition expanding the existing single-story home from 980 square feet to a new two story 2,900 sq. ft. custom craftsman home. Everything entirely new including front landscaping, a new stamped concrete colored driveway, a front walkway, and a composite deck.

Some call this a stoop.

New colored and stamped concrete driveway and patio in Willow Glen completed at the very end of this amazing remodel and addition project.

This is the part that most people forget about when they order custom cabinets. Sometimes cabinet makers will deliver them pre-painted or stained and in some cases they come naked and we paint the bases in place.

The framing and roofing of this new modern craftsman took time to complete. The steepness of the roofs had to be navigated very carefully by our framers and roofers.

Our clients were bold with their paint colors. At first we had a little hesitancy but in the end everything came together for this amazing craftsman remodel and addition.

The first step to putting on stucco ultimately getting to an amazingly smooth acrylic finish.

Here we are working as the sun comes up to complete this amazing remodel and addition in Willow Glen. Acrylic smooth stucco takes four coats to complete.

The back of the house was pushed out to create more room for this growing family.

Getting the trusses in and around the power lines and trees was a challenge for this whole house remodel and addition in Willow Glen.. With careful maneuvering and a lot of pulling and pushing, we managed to get all the trusses up to the second floor.

A typical Saturday spent trying to get out ahead of our production schedule and to get ready for the next building inspection.

Here we are knocking down a 980 square foot single story “rancher” to make ready for a new two story 2,800 sq. ft. custom craftsman home.

Newly completed 3,500 sq. ft. remodel addition in Willow Glen built in a flood plain. Notice the lights inserted in the driveway. These lights make it easier to get back to the rear garage, a typical configuration for Willow Glen. An added benefit to ground lighting is that the neighbors don’t get overwhelmed with flood lights.

Fairview House: Our client evidently loves the color red! This was a first for us and a first for seeing SMEG appliances used in one of our remodels and additions in Willow Glen.

Fairview House: On the final leg of construction for our big remodel and addition project on Fairview in Willow Glen. We waited three days for PG&E to show up to swing the power off the temporary power pole to the new electrical panel.

Fairview House: This is the original front elevation of this small home that was taken down to the ground and rebuilt and expanded in every way. The challenge for us on this one was the fact that the house existed in a flood plain calling for us to raise the house by 2 ft.

Fairview House: This is the 5th garage we have built in the last 18 months in Willow Glen. This garage is huge and needed a special use permit to construct.

Our clients on Fairview can’t wait for us to finish. We are working on it!

Fairview House: This project has been a real tester. We had to build this house up out of a flood plain where nothing but the sewer lines can be under floor.

Fairview House: Fairview is in a flood plain. This means that nothing below the sub-floor except waste lines. Everything else is supposed to go above the sub-floor. This presents a challenge with it comes to running ducting for the HVAC in particular.
