Attic Turned Master Suite

14Dec2016

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Our team recently finished turning an old attic into a gorgeous master suite. The remodel was truly a major transformation that gave the homeowners additional space in their own home, including an additional bathroom, bedroom and walk-in closet. It’s always a great pleasure when we can add space (and value) to our clients home and allow them to stay in the town they love.

We also were able to make updates to the office space to make room for a staircase leading up to the master suite.

Tips to Winterize Your Home

29Nov2016

As another New England winter rolls in, there are many ways you can protect your home from damage. Our team works closely with homeowners to ensure their home is ready for whatever Mother Nature may deliver this year. Not sure where to start on your own home?

Get Your Gutters in Place & Clean: Take a look at your gutters. Are they facing towards your house? If so, you need to fix them so the water flows away, not towards the structure of your home. Also, make sure your gutters are free and clear of any leaves to avoid water build-up.
Make Sure Doors & Windows Are Weathertight: Make sure all windows and exterior doors are weather tight so there are no drafts; This will keep the wind, snow, and wet weather out.
Check for Window Sill Damage: Water damage to your window sill is caused by sitting moisture. If you have a rotten or moldy sill, it is important to replace it before further damage is done to the structure of your home.
Use Heated Cables: Ice dams can cause big headaches for homeowners and heated cables can help protect your house from them. Without these cables, the water that backs up behind the ice dams can leak into your home, causing damage to walls, ceilings and insulation.

Thanks for reading! Let us know if you need any help protecting your home this winter!
