Fireplaces

Generally, the finish work phase of building can just take a couple of days doing the base and case throughout the house. However, if you want a house to be done right, the finish work needs to be well designed and look as if it's been part of the house for years.

Here are two of my favorites. The Living room fireplace.

Family room fireplace.

Exterior Update

Before moving to the interior, we needed to give an update on the exterior.

As a reminder, here's the before..

This is the siding going up. Using cedar verses hardy gives a more authentic coastal look.

Once painted you can see variation due to the variation in the cedar. Like a box of fine wine, with age it patinas and only gets better.

This front door turned out amazing with it's side lights and trims. Once all the trims are painted and the wood porch is framed it will really pop.
