Old Kitchen Floor Livened Up

Image
We were called back to an old house that we previously did the floors to the front half of the house. Now the kitchen floor needed redone. The homeowners tore out the existing 5 layers of flooring that was about 2 inches thick . We had to replace some of the old antique heart pine boards.  

Rather Large Bookcase

 We went to see a project that someone needed done for their home.  They had lots of books for their kids to read but not enough space for them. So they showed us what they had in mind and we were able to help them out. They wanted a wall to wall, floor to ceiling bookcase that had cabinets down below to store their games and puzzles, while having book shelves on top and enough room for their TV and related devices.  They also wanted the cabinet to be painted to brighten the room. We used bead board for the backing and used the paint the homeowner supplied.  The homeowners were delighted to have more space for their books and entertainment needs.

A New Kitchen

  Last November a tragedy happened, a fire burned out a house, so the whole inside was gutted out.  The family had contacted a framer to rebuild the inside.   He had called us to install the hardwood floors and could we build the kitchen cabinets.   We said we can help. This Summer we built the cabinets to look just like the ones that were there prior to the fire. We got there and the kitchen looked so bare. We had a young fellow help us install the cabinets.  Warren held the cabinet while Eric attached the cabinets to the wall.  He was a great help to us. The cabinets went in beautifully and the was ready for the countertops, appliances and sink to be placed. The framer had someone else install LVP for the kitchen flooring.

Dining Room Cabinet

  This past week we had installed a cabinet that we custom buit. The homeowner had found the doors and asked us to build a cabinet to fit them.     We primed the cabinet and the homeowner was going to paint the final coat of paint. 

Two Sets of Bunkbeds

"Can you make us a couple of bunk beds? We are expecting our sixth child." Sure! We can help. The customer brought to us nine, old pine, 3x3 inch posts that he got from an auction. He then sent us a photo of the bunkbed he had in mind.   We went rummaging through the wood collection we have and found pine boards that matched the posts.   We did a mortis and tennon on the  boards and posts, made safety rails for top and bottom.   We then stained them special walnut and applied 3 coats of finish on them.  The weather was so nice the day we applied the finish, 70°F in February!
