Remodeling is mostly carpentry: opening walls, adding framing and finishing the new work to match. Here is what to plan.
A remodel starts with questions. What is behind the wall, what holds up the ceiling and how will the new work meet the old? The answers shape the plan, and an experienced carpenter reads a house the way a doctor reads a patient.
We open what needs opening, protect what stays, frame the changes and finish the new work to match the existing trim and floors. We coordinate with plumbers, electricians and designers so each step happens in the right order.
