Quality craftsmanship and remodeling in Geneva, Illinois
Well, its certainly the right time of year to get some new windows installed in your house! Here’s a project we’re working on to replace windows and doors.
As you can tell, we’re all about lookin’ good while keepin’ warm this winter. We’ll update you when the new windows are in!

We finished up the bathroom project I told you all about. I think it turned out great, because as you know, I love me some earth tones!

Two sinks, such a luxury:

I think everyone is happy with this project! To see where we came from, check out our before posts here and here.
Keep warm, everyone!

Hi Friends!
That’s right, the 3rd annual Joeman calendar is now available! As usual, all of the proceeds benefit Lazarus House in St. Charles. And also as usual, I guarantee that it will not disappoint. Without giving away too much, my daughter’s favorite month is October and my son-in-law likes March. You’ll have to buy the calendar if you want to end the suspense.
2010 limited edition!
Add a comment to this post or email me if you would like a calendar – I’ll send you one with an envelope for a donation to Lazarus House.

Elvis is in the building…
Huh, huh, Happy New Year, everybody!
Brrrr! We’re keeping warm by staying busy on our bathroom project. This week we installed the floor and wall tiles:

I tend to gravitate toward earth tones for everything in my house (a source of constant fodder for my daughters!), so I liked this choice of color. Here’s the walls:

Have a great weekend!

Hope everyone is enjoying the snowy weather! We’re back with a few pictures of the finished porch project.
We finished installing the new structural posts, so now the porch is finished.
New posts- check out the ceiling!
Here’s the final picture:
done and done!

Hope everyone had a great holiday! Just wanted to post a few pictures of a back porch we recently finished.

Note: our previously posted porch project is still in progress – we’re installing posts now!
This week we’re working on a new bath project. First we put a rubber membrane in the shower to ensure a leak-free base.
No leaks here!
Then we covered the shower walls with a concrete board:

Our electrical hook up is complete now.

Hope everyone is enjoying the holiday week!

One of our customers bought a new TV, but it wouldn’t fit in their existing cabinet.
Before: too small!
We modified the existing cabinetry and had it re-painted.
Just right!
Just in time for Monday night football!
Until next time,

We helped another contractor replace a rotted beam for a client.
Here’s a picture of the joinery:

Then we installed a metal cap on the beam so we don’t have the rotting problem again:

And here is the finished product, the new beam after it was installed:

Until next time!
