01
Featured transformation
Water-Damage Restoration & Full Room Transformation
What began as water damage became a full room restoration. Damaged areas were opened up and rebuilt, then the space was finished with recessed drywall, custom cabinetry, trim, lighting and detailed finish work — taking the project from repair through the completed room.
