Jennifer L'Hommedieu1924 bungalow · addition + remodelThe build
What this build covered.
A Craftsman bungalow in the Creston-Kenilworth neighborhood received both a full interior renovation and a structural rear addition. The addition extended the main level and added a new primary suite, increasing the home's livable square footage substantially while preserving the original street-facing facade. Permitting included full structural engineering coordination and BDS plan review.

Two bathrooms rebuilt to current code with new plumbing and electrical. Original hardwood floors refinished and matched where the addition met the existing structure.
Systems modernization
Service upgrade and full electrical replacement. New plumbing supply and waste from the meter. Insulation and air sealing brought to current energy code throughout original construction and addition. HVAC ducting reworked to serve the expanded footprint.
