Taking out the existing stairs made a huge difference to this home. It’s always best to get rid of quirky designs during a renovation.
Odd angles and cut off corners aren’t necessary and they impede the flow of a home. Straight lines make things more beautiful and seamless.
The new stair case can be a simple and beautiful feature.

HOW LONG DOES A RENO TAKE?
ANSWER: Depends 🙂
This was a full home gut job, three floors fully renovated. Our client took out walls between the old kitchen and dining. We removed all the quirky angled walls, added new stairs, new bathrooms… EVERYTHING. This reno took 5 MONTHS to complete (from demo to final touches).
Here’s a rough estimate of what you can expect for other projects:
4 PIECE BATHROOM - 4 WEEKS
KITCHEN - 5 WEEKS
BASEMENT - 6 WEEKS
MAIN FLOOR - 7 WEEKS

New floors, new built-ins, completely different space…
A little preview of this full home renovation. Still waiting for kitchen countertops and lighting, but it’s definitely transformed from the dark and disconnected main floor it used to be.

F A R M H O U S E Transformation 🏠✨
Can you believe this is the same home? This one-bedroom farmhouse holds a lot of special memories for the owners, so we made sure to keep this in mind when renovating. The overall layout stayed the same, we added new steps, hardwood throughout. Fresh trim work and paint made this an inviting place to host their growing family get togethers.
The owners added special touches like an antique plate feature wall in the dining room, their favourite artwork, and even low-cost IKEA storage cabinets which we framed in to look custom. Did you spot them? 👀
This goes to show - you can massively transform your home without re-jigging layouts and knocking down walls 👊

Sharing my secrets on how to transform your dated family room to a stunning place for everyone to gather:
1. Add a fireplace
2. Work in built-ins for the extra storage (and visual beauty)
3. Bring in light with white or creamy wall colours
4. Don’t be afraid to remove a window (sometimes necessary to rearrange the room in a better way)
5. Create the mood with lanterns (add some interesting lights aside from just overhead lighting)

BEFORE & AFTER
Backyard Oasis - Armour Stone Courtyard.
📌 Save for our signature landscaping must haves:
- Armour stone retaining wall
- Natural stone steps
- Pressure treated deck
- Lattice privacy fence
- Boxwood hedges
- Annabelle hydrangeas
What a challenge! With the grade of the yard being so steep, the only way we could create a usable flat surface was to carve out a large, sunken courtyard. The hight of the armour stone also added some much needed privacy from the golfers close by. ⛳️🏌️♀️

Massive 6 month renovation complete! Taken back to studs and completely restored inside and out.
Have never taken out so many bricks and tile during a single demo. Biggest challenge to date, transforming this old, 70’s style side split, into a dreamy showpiece.
