Our team at Three Sons was recently contacted to help with a homeowner’s basement remodel. They wanted to replace their home’s basement and transform the space from an outdated afterthought into a room where they could come relax and enjoy a warm fire in the winter months. Our team got right to work on renovating the space into a beautiful new recreation space. If you’d like to learn more about this basements transformation, keep reading below to learn more:

The Remodeling Process

The first thing our team did upon beginning the basement remodel was discuss their wants and needs for the new space. They wanted to completely reimagine the space by installing new doors and windows, as well as replacing the walls and shelving in the space. After we learned what they were looking for from the remodel, we began to tear down the old paneling and remove the old windows and doors to begin the remodeling process.

After we had removed the old windows, door, and paneling from the room, we began by installing plaster & board walling in the room. While we were installing the new walls in the room, we also created built-in shelves flanking the fireplace for pictures, books, or anything else the homeowners want to add. After that was complete, our team began to tackle the window replacement, using new Harvey Classic windows to fill the same space that the old windows occupied. After the window installation was completed, we needed to replace the old door to the room, and then the remodel was complete!

The transformed basement looks fantastic, and the homeowners were thrilled with their new recreation space. From enjoying a warm fire during the winter, to having a quiet place to come read and relax after a long day, this room is sure to get plenty of us after this remodel!

Remodeling your bathroom is one of the best ways to increase your home’s resale value and improve its functionality. Your bathroom is one of the most important rooms in your home, and it is often the room where you begin your days. With so much to gain from having a beautiful, functional bathroom, it is important to ensure that your bathroom is designed to meet you and your family needs. Before you remodel your bathroom, take a look at this blog to learn how you can make the most out of your remodel!

Choose The Right Lighting

One of the most important decisions that you can make when it comes to your bathroom is choosing the proper lighting for the space. Installing the right lighting can make a world of difference in the feel of your bathroom and help bring the space together. Consider installing a combination of recessed lighting and wall sconces around your vanity to pull the space together!

Install Proper Ventilation

This is a very important part of remodeling your bathroom, as without proper ventilation, your could end up ruining your investment when mold and mildew begin to build up in your walls, ceiling, or potentially even your cabinetry. To avoid moisture damage in your bathroom, be sure to install a fan that will be able to handle the steam your shower creates. Another option to consider is installing a dehumidifier, which will help take moisture out of the air when it gets too humid in the bathroom.

Pick The Right Flooring

Another important piece of your bathroom is the flooring your choose. It is important to choose a flooring material that is not only beautiful, but also durable, as your bathroom floor will need to withstand significant amounts of moisture. Ceramic, stone, or porcelain tiles are all great choices, as they as all water-resistant, in addition to being an aesthetically pleasing option.

Make The Most Of Your Space

Particularly if you have a small bathroom, you need to make the proper style and fixture choices to ensure that you make the most of the space that you have available to you. It is important to try to corner your fixtures when you can, including installing your shower, toilet, and sink in the corners when possible. Furthermore, consider installing glass doors on your shower or tub, which will help make the space feel bigger. Additionally, try to install cabinets above other fixtures like the toliet or sink, or add a medicine cabinet with a mirror in order to maximize functionality.

As of recent, we have been finishing up quite a few projects, including this beautiful outdoor remodeling project on a home in Waltham, MA. Many of the Waltham homes are a bit older, due to the area itself being a bit old, and therefore, we have been seeing quite a bit of wear and tear on the siding of the homes. We first started off with an initial home consultation, where we were able to really determine the route to go with this home to truly take advantage of the gorgeous angles and light that is a part of the home. When we got this project, we were extremely excited to take on and allow this home to get back to its full potential.

About the Project

There was a specific siding used on this project, and we did not necessarily utilize too many different sidings on this project. The siding that we used was the CertainTeed Monogram siding, which provided an amazing brightness that the home was lacking. This being said, the color also provided an opportunity we do not often see to really soften the home, and make it look bright and bold, without being overbearingly shocking to the eye. The muted, more neutral color really did a lot to highlight the home itself.

Contact Three Sons!

At Three Sons Window & Door, we have often worked with CertainTeed Products, amongst others. We also have the ability to work with windows and doors, as well as with porch areas, and can complete the entire project until you are perfectly satisfied.
