This was my favorite project of the basement remodel. Built these custom barn doors from rough cut pine. Did a weathered stain finish then mounted the barn rolling hardware and hung the doors. The homeowner was looking to utilize as much space possible and still be able to easily access their breaker panel as well as service the heating system and hot water tank.

For all my fellow cat people this was a cool part of this basement remodel. I made great use of this space with two separate storage closets and one of them specifically for the home owners cats.

This customer was very excited about the laundry storage and folding area. I’m very proud of how it turned out.

Night and day with this Staircase transformation!

This was a exciting project to be part of this project at Merrimack Valley High School. They have revamped their auditorium with a mahogany panel system designed by Marlite, Inc.

We also installed the marlite metal channel that houses the panels.
