Kitchen remodel from a few years ago. The old layout didn’t make any sense so we stripped it down to drywall and added all new cabinets and countertops, new lighting, even new windows. You can see in the second photo the start of a counter to ceiling tile backsplash that ran 18 feet!
Years later I still find myself sometimes thinking of this corner detail. I was actually on this job to do electrical work (which was a whole other story) but the GC asked for help and I liked the challenge.
I love hex tile. This was one of my first ever solo tile jobs and one of the most uneven floors I’ve ever worked on. A lot was learned! A lot would be done differently 😂 but still I think it’s pretty cool at the end of the day.
I’ve been painting professionally since I was 16, when I was making money to travel to the west coast for a summer surf trip. In the intervening 24 years I’ve painted countless interiors and exteriors and still find it deeply enjoyable. While many customers choose painting as a place to DIY and save some money I always caution that the speed, quality and efficacy of a professional is hard to beat.
This customer sourced some local barn wood for this accent wall behind their bed. It was expensive but pre-milled meaning they saved a ton on install and the final product was very clean and precise.
Grout that tile! We actually didn’t really realize until applying the grout that the tile had a blue undertone that the white grout really brought out. Fortunately it was a great match for the rest of the kitchen.
4 new canless lights, a new tile backsplash with metal trim and a new coat of paint was the perfect update for this half bath. A great example of some strategic spending creating a more welcoming space.
A look at a just finished project, hot off the presses. This customer wanted to modernize their kitchen without breaking the bank, so we left the countertop, cabinets & fixtures and updated and added to the backsplash. The slight blue hue to the tile works nicely with their floating shelves & range hood and we were all very pleased with the outcome.
This project was a surprise and labor of love for some of my closest friends. They vaulted the ceiling of their cozy Boulder home (which will end up a post of its own at some point) and we had these leftover ceiling joists which were destined for the landfill. Instead I pulled them from the trash (sneakily),milled them, joined them and sealed them to make them a dining room table. Now a smarter more savvy man would have a photo of the finished table… but this will have to do.
What used to be a drafty, cold, poorly converted screened-porch turned office was transformed into a cozy birds nest for slow mornings with warm coffee or contemplative evening art sessions. The combination of new windows, tile and tongue and groove ceiling came together to make my favorite part of this whole-apartment remodel.
