A burst pipe behind the roof deck hose bibb sent a waterfall down through the house for a week while the homeowners were away on a winter vacation.  The aftermath required removing everything to the studs and extensive drying out, and it gave us the opportunity to correct a host of questionable planning and material decisions made by the original spec builder.  The remodel highlights include an open, gleaming white kitchen that replaced its cramped back room predecessor, redesigned open stair details, and in the master bath, custom back painted glass panels on the shower walls coordinate with the adjacent painted walls to make the shower dematerialize and the space feel larger.
