new deck installation
Stafford, CT - Our client wanted to remove the metal ramp and have a small deck built in its place. This is the side entrance to the home and sits at the back part of the driveway. This is the main entrance into the home and creates easy access to and from vehicles.
Our crew began by dismantling the ramp. The next step was to cut the driveway, pour two piers (two right corners) to help support this new deck platform. We built this 8' x 10' base from pressure treated wood and installed Trex Select deck flooring. The rails are Xpanse (vinyl maintenance free).
We finished up this project by adding one large box step in front and lattice around the edges to keep leaves and debris from collecting under the deck. We also installed an Azek kick plate below the entrance door.

For our Manchester CT master bathroom remodel, we removed an old jacuzzi tub and added a linen closet and this walk-in shower area complete with bench seat and glass doors. The low threshold makes it easier to step into the shower area, perfect for those who want to stay in their home (aging in place).

Front Entry Door
Sliding Glass Door Installation
Garage Door Replacement
When we replaced this front entry door in Ellington CT, it turned out to be a beautiful transition. The homeowners decided to change it from a black & white colored entrance area to this deep color with the stone surround. Keeping the two sidelights and the transom above the door continues to allow the natural light to come inside.

A simple change made all the difference out in Manchester CT. We replaced the original garage door with a new, larger one and installed an opener. Now it is much easier to use allowing plenty of room for their vehicle and movement inside the garage. While we were there, the homeowners wanted us to replace the regular entrance door as well.

Amphitheater in Hyde Park
We were privileged to be a part of this community project in building an amphitheater at Hyde Park in Stafford CT. Many outdoor music concerts are held here along with the Blues Fest which is put on by the Friends of Hyde Park in early August each year. A wonderful place for all to enjoy for years to come!
Tenant Fit-Out
During this commercial remodel in Danielson, CT, we gutted the existing building and rebuilt it with custom office space and client medical meeting rooms. Storage closets, utility room, IT room and front reception area completed this tenant fit-out.
Framing for an Elevator
We were contracted to frame for an elevator to be installed at a home in West Hartford CT. The elevator was built to provide easier access to each floor of the house for the resident. One of the many things we can build to make your home more ADA accessible.
historic renovations
Repairs & Renovations to Historic Barn
Over the summer, we headed out to Suffield CT to complete some repairs and renovations on this historic barn. Once the homeowner's paint the whole barn, it will look beautiful & the restoration complete!
Repairs & New Garage Doors
A portion of our work was to replace any rotted wood in this historic structure. We used rough sawn wood for the replacement pieces to keep with the older and weathered look of the rest of the building. New garage doors were installed to bring some ease of use to the barn which will be used for vehicle storage.
Stone Drainage Areas
While we were working on the repairs and installation of garage doors, we created this stone drainage area. The intent for this is to help keep the water away from the new garage doors and minimize the rotting of wood in the future.
