Remodeling a home and applying a level 4 light “old world” finish that hides the vast majority of drywall blemishes.

Construction is underway on this whole house remodel and addition in Saratoga, CA.

A lot of our projects involve taking a house down the studs, preserving some existing walls, and removing everything else. This is a very time-consuming process but if you don’t want to count the project as “ground up” for property tax purposes and for other potential money saving reasons, this is the way to go.

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.

These LaCantina folding doors was a fantastic touch for this whole house remodel and addition project in Willow Glen. The natural light in this house is abundant with this exterior door out to the backyard and the inclusion of multiple solar powered adjustable skylights.

Carolyn House: This single story home and complete remodel/addition in Willow Glen took us about 14 months to finish. Everything about it is unique and remarkable. The street is known for its festivities around Christmas time and we are happy to report that the new owners had it ready to go.

Our homeowner client selected this decking material from The Decking Superstore in San Jose. With an integrated BBQ area it was perfect for the backyard area we had to work with. Landscaping to follow.

We really like the layout of this 4 bedroom house and its lines. Great curb appeal too. The owners selected and purchased all their own interior finishes and we put them together for them just as fast as we could get city inspections.

This was the old small house before we started on this single story remodel and addition in Willow Glen. The garage was moved to align with the orientation of the driveway which helped to reduce cost and speed the plans through the city approval process.

Carolyn House: We had a hard time swallowing the cost of this piece of wood lying in a lumber yard in Half Moon Bay. But, after we beat on it and white washed it, everyone loved it. The tile is a nice touch too.

Spencer House: This is a pretty large concrete project. We stamped the concrete, colored it, and added a walnut “release” over the top to enhance the look of the concrete. The owner was extremely pleased.

Spencer House: This fireplace insert was a nice touch with grey ledger stone and a stained matching mantle.
