Pamela and Toby’s Nepean Kitchen

Day 1: Kitchen before

Day 1: Pre-demolition artwork.

Day 7: The plumbing, electrical and flooring (Wicanders Cork comfort flooring in Fashionable Cement) is done. Today we’re installing the cabinets.

Pamela and Toby heard about us from their friends, Sue and Benoit, whose basement we renovated last year. Today Sue came by with cookies. Former clients bringing cookies to the current client’s house. We love how this is working!

Day 11: Cabinets are done. It will be a few weeks before the counters arrive and are installed. Then we’ll be back to tile the backsplash.

A few weeks later….

Pamela and Toby’s quartz counter has been put in by the installers. We were back to tile the backsplash and the kitchen is done!

Day 14: The kitchen is done!

Alex and Janine’s basement kitchen and bathroom

Alex and Janine recently moved to Ottawa. We worked on their plans long-distance and it all came together so well.

Ripley looooooves to play tug with his octopus. (We started a new bathroom and kitchenette reno this week, but know you’d much rather see pictures of the dog than an empty space.)

Day four: We’ve created a basement bathroom where there wasn’t one. Brought in licensed plumbers and electricians. Next up is the city inspection (which we always pass).

Stephanie and Todd’s Orleans Basement Renovation

Stephanie and Todd have two children and wanted 850q ft of the basement in their Orleans home renovated as a family area, play area, separate gym room and storage room. A bathroom was also framed for a future renovation.

Day 1: Exterior walls were already framed. We got to work framing the interior walls for a gym, family room, furnace room, storage room and future bathroom.
