San Mateo Whole House Renovation

We recently completed a total remodel of a home in San Mateo.  The views are spectacular and now the homeowners have a space that equals the views.

San Jose Master Bathroom Remodel

This San Jose master bathroom was past its prime with a rarely used corner tub, small separate shower, and cultured marble surrounds.  But, it did have good "bones" and was quite spacious.  We replaced the tired fixtures with a huge walk-in shower that features Azul granite from Brazil.  One look at the spectacular stone and you won't be surprised to discover that the husband is a geologist.

San Jose Master Bathroom Walk-in Shower with Custom Cabinetry
Custom cabinetry by Woodenbridge provides ample storage as well as seating.  It's a vast improvement over the original builder grade cabinets both in style and function.

"Transforming Houses Into Homes" is our motto and it certainly applies here.  Not only did we completely transform this Santa Clara home, according to NARI Silicon Valley the "meta" in Meta Awards comes from "metamorphosis, signifying the transformation process" of remodeling.

Upon seeing the award plaque in our office, a client who has just started a major remodel told us "if my house wins, I want one of these plaques to put up on the outside of my house for everyone to see."  We will gladly oblige if we are honored again next year.
