How to Create a House Remodeling Plan

House Remodeling: What to Expect During the Process

You know what you want it to look like. You’ve got a plan. However, something that’s inevitable when you’re remodeling a house is reevaluating the abstract concept that you once thought was the best.

Modernizing the Fireplace Wall

Modernizing the Fireplace Wall

There’s nothing quite like kicking back at the end of a long day in front of a crackling fireplace, beverage in hand, kids asleep, and a game or favorite Netflix binge on. How much better would that moment be if you could be watching that game right above the fireplace – without causing any heat damage to your TV!

In today’s Talking Trends, Van and Jared introduce us to cool walls – the perfect solution for protecting your TV on a fireplace wall. They’ll also show us a sleek type of porcelain tile that has a rustic, textured look as well as a quality, contemporary finish. Tune in and let us know what you think of this trendy fireplace!

Indoor Stairs – Tips & Tricks

Indoor Stairs – Tips & Tricks

You might be surprised to learn that Jared can be a less-than-attentive driver… but fortunately for us, he definitely pays careful attention to detail when it comes to his building projects! (To be fair, shopping carts can be tricky to spot. We’ll cut him some slack, even if Van doesn’t.)

Indoor staircases are critical to the look and feel of a home, and little details make a huge difference in the overall impact of the home. Unfortunately, builders desiring a clean, open look sometimes feel like they have to compromise either on the quality of the construction or on the budget – but this doesn’t have to be the case! In this episode of Talking Trends, Van and Jared show us some of their tricks for maintaining a clean, open look on indoor staircases without sacrificing on the quality of the work. Take a look!

Building Your Project the Way You Want

One of the best ways to ensure a speedy build that meets your vision is to “begin with the end in mind” – and to communicate those desires as clearly as possible! Every detail can help your contractors better understand your desired outcome, from your logo to the exact shade and sheen of the paint color you want up on the walls. This episode of Talking Trends outlines some fundamental practices for helping your contractor see through your eyes, saving both of you time, stress, and money in the process.
