Out With The Old, In With The New Northeast Ohio Home Renovation Part 1 Part 2 Sometimes old houses are beyond repair and the only fix is a complete tear-down. However, there’s something magical about giving a home a new life while honoring its original details. This project is the perfect example.  This house changed several times since it was built 100 years ago. The brick portion once stood on its own, filled with lots of rooms. The vinyl exterior marks an addition, built by a family that needed more space. They added a living room, master suite, laundry room, full bath, and gar ..read more

Permanently on Vacation Lake House Remodel Part 2 Part 1 For some families, the living room provides enough space to kick back and relax. But for other folks, this space simply doesn’t cut it.

Around here in Northeast Ohio, the best place to burrow is in the basement, the fun room where family and friends can hang back and chill. But basements are typically the last rooms to finish, especially in new construction homes. And that’s for a good reason—basements are notoriously challenging to design. Between the scattered poles, lack of natural light, and weather-specific concerns, there are tons of loos ..read more

Permanently on Vacation Lake House Remodel Part 1 Part 2 The weather is crisp, the leaves are changing color, and pumpkin spice lattes are back again. That means it’s fall, everybody! I love looking at all the fall foliage this time of year, which reminds me of the most magical fall view at a lake house remodel we completed last autumn. This project had lots of challenges.

As a matter of fact, 5 ..read more
