Project: Fireplace

Anyone who has been at our house on Maple Wood knows that our fireplace was always pretty “plain Jane”.  When we had the house built we needed to cut costs, so the fireplace was never really finished the way we had planned. Now this is kind of a good and bad scenario.

The bad – we never were able to enjoy a finished fireplace 😦

The good – finishing it now has allowed us to update to a more contemporary look. 🙂

Thanks again to Andre and Jim for a job well done. I could not have wished for a more beautiful finished project and we are now very close to the end of our renos. We just need to do some: painting and baseboard work in the master bedroom, outside yard clean up, finishing up with some odds and ends and a major clean up (including a purge). We are almost there!

Working hard to get the “Regina” house ready for sale!  Andre and Jim tackled the big job of refinishing the carpeted stairs with wood. Gone are the white spindles; replaced by wrought iron and maple and it looks beautiful!  The guys did an amazing job!

A year or more out from our anticipated move and we are working on getting the house ready for sale. Started with the kitchen.

Before and after

Building a kitchenette in the basement.

Gettin’ er done!

The finished kitchen

Thanks to Andre Longtin and of course Jim for getting this massive job done. It looks amazing! (Nikki likes it too)
