We have been busy this fall with our North Waterloo home addition headed up by Menno <\/span>Co-Owner\/Project Manager Art Janzen.<\/a>\u00a0Starting out as a bathroom renovation, due to a leak, this project evolved into a full-blown kitchen addition. Backsplit homes can be tricky to renovate with all of the multiple levels and angles but luckily we have experience working in this home. We completed a basement renovation for them in 2006, and it\u2019s always a pleasure working with repeat clients.<\/span><\/p>\n

The new kitchen addition is tucked into the back corner of the home behind the garage.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The perfect spot<\/h2>\n

It was apparent\u00a0from day one that\u00a0the open corner behind the garage\u00a0would be the\u00a0perfect spot to push the kitchen out.\u00a0This area was originally the deck so it was easy for the homeowners to visualize the footprint.\u00a0To help further bring their visualization to life, we provided 3D renderings of the brand-new floor plan which really got everybody excited.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n\n

Such great heights<\/h2>\n

Doubling the space of the original kitchen and significantly increasing the height, the biggest feature of this home addition is the vaulted ceilings and two Velux Skylights<\/a>. The homeowners were very keen to have a view of the sky and that\u2019s exactly what they will get every time they spend time in their new kitchen addition.<\/p>\n

\"\" \"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/h2>\n

Working with trusted partners<\/h2>\n

Each of our projects involve all kinds of professionals to get the job done. For this addition, we worked closely with Lewis Straus Construction<\/a> to\u00a0excavate for the foundation which was then formed and poured by Runstedler Concrete.\u00a0Once we had the structure built we had Mike The Roofer<\/a> squeeze us in just on time before the snow!\u00a0Eby Electric Services<\/a> was\u00a0brought in to\u00a0wire the new space to accommodate\u00a0the new kitchen plan by Chervin Kitchen & Bath<\/a> who incidentally\u00a0worked with our fantastic clients on the basement project years prior.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Putting people first<\/h2>\n

Keeping the job site clean and pristine at the end of each workday is a key priority for our team of skilled trades professionals. Our lead carpenter for this job is Scott, and we have received some really positive feedback from our clients and their neighbours about how neat and tidy the site is left each day. We know a home addition can be a disruptive time for our homeowners, so it’s important for us to show them and their homes the utmost respect while we are onsite.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

It has been a real treat working with the homeowners for this North Waterloo addition. They practice putting people first too and set our crew up with delicious coffee in the morning. What a warm welcoming start to the day! We look forward to sharing the ‘after’ photos of this kitchen renovation with you once it’s complete.<\/p>\n
