Curb Appeal !

This 1950’s cape looked sad and tired from the street, despite a complete renovation going on inside. The homeowner hired a painter to change the aluminum siding to a crisp grey. Added black shutters made the white trim really stand out. The roof needed to be replaced – architectural tiles applied by a local roofer complement the new house color. Now the outside is as clean and inviting as the renovated interior, for about $2750, including labor and materials.

Chef’s Delight!

It doesn’t take tens of thousands of dollars to renovate a kitchen. This modest home had a 1940’s kitchen, complete with cheap, dark and moldy cabinets, chipped countertops, ugly linoleum and ancient light fixtures. The homeowners created a light and airy space using stock cabinetry from a local home center, with the help of a handy man, who patched and smoothed the walls, installed the cabinets, laid a new ceramic tile floor, installed new appliances and light fixtures, and painted the walls a light-enhancing pale honey color. A local craftsman created new Wilsonart countertops, insuring a perfect fit and finish. The result? A kitchen the homeowners want to be in, and a lot less take-out! Total cost of this renovation? $5,950, including all labor and materials. Wow!

Life After Paneling

A demolition team removed the dark paneling that covered the walls of this bedroom, as well as the decades-old carpet. A handyman patched and sanded the walls, cut new window trim, applied neutral paint to walls and trim. Neutral carpet completed the picture - a fresh new bedroom!

From Dated to Timeless

The upstairs bath in this homeowners 1940’s cape had already undergone a renovation…in the 1970’s! Remember “harvest gold”? The fiberglass shower surround – complete with built in soap holders for a family of 6 – was as ugly as it was weird! Demolition was accomplished by the homeowners, and a local professional helped insert a new tub, then replaced the water-damaged wall board with the proper backing, then added gleaming white tile from a home center. This bath is only a day away from fabulous!
