Winter time yuck
Work has been slow lately. We have been doing some small remodeling jobs, but it seems you have to fight for every job you get. I sure hope things turn around for Michigan.

Looking forward to spring, we have some home shows coming up, and soon it will be time to get out and pound the pavement.
Here is a few deck designs we have worked on in the past. Hopefully to get us inspired for the spring and deck building season !
Low level deck design to flow into a stamped concrete patio and then the backyard.
Dual color, triple picture frame border in composite
Here is a deck with a attached gazebo
Here is a design that was rejected for a more simple design by a customer
I really liked the deck design on this with the angles

Just in Time Stephs Mudroom is Progressing
Im back from my lovely Colorado vacation (sigh). I spent some time out yesterday in the sunny, 85 degree fall weather (hey, its Texas folks - this is fall!) purchasing my mums and pumpkins.I know that these gorgeous fall days will soon give way to the messy days of winter so its time to revisit Stephs mudroom.
A quick recap; my friend Steph, who lives in the northeast, is adding a mudroom addition to her familys home - a 1700s school house - that will also serve as their entryway. Check out these posts to see some of the issues that we covered earlier as the mudroom planning got underway.
Check out the progress....

| Framing, sheathing and the lovely Lucy! |

| The mudroom roof line takes shape...splurge for metal or stick to the budget and go with asphalt?? |

| View from new mudroom door, original entry on the right, new walk-in closet straight ahead. |

| Sheetrock, new doors, slate floors! |

| Exterior in progress - matching the existing siding material... |
Mudrooms can easily turn chaotic with the amount of "stuff" that gets dropped off. Corralling that stuff before it reaches other parts of the interior is the purpose of a mudroom anyway. Steph decided against locker type storage often seen in mudrooms and went for a walk in closet instead. In her words, "I am very sure that I want a door that will close, just in case SsayaEBODY does not respect the integrity of the organizational system!"
Well take a look at options for outfitting the 6 by 5 walk-in closet in our next post and give Steph some other finishing options including a bench for seating and other storage tips for the space. Looking good Steph!
