March always reminds me that Spring construction projects are right around the corner. Hopefully the ground will continue to thaw and we can have some early starts.

In Ranch Remodel I talk about the conversion of the ubiquitous ranch style home. In this case we used 200 year old bricks to face the new home.

A Sun Room is the perfect prescripton for the winter blues. Sitting by the fire and enjoying the snow fall can brighten anyone’s outlook.

Ranch Remodel

Ranch style homes have fallen in and out of favor over the decades. This love-hate relationship with homeowners often leads to a desire to make major changes to the average ranch. One of the most frequently asked questions regarding a major ranch home renovation is: 'When is it better to knock it down instead of working with what is there?' Sometimes that line is hard to draw and it usually is determined by a cost benefit analysis. If in changing all the windows (and moving them), removing the roof, and rearranging the floor plan there is little house left, then certainly a case can be made to start from scratch.

Sun Room

The best time to enjoy a sunroom can be the middle of winter. While we always think of sitting in a sun room looking out over a lush garden, the time when we need sun the most is when those plants are well below the snow. Like sitting on a porch in the summer while a warm rain falls out in the yard, sitting in a sun room around a crackling fire while it storms outside can be a wonderful experience.
