Home Renovation

This Brantford main-floor renovation opens up the connection between the living and dining rooms while keeping the original brick fireplace, tall baseboards, and sash windows. Sage-green casing frames the widened opening, and wide-plank white oak flooring runs through all three rooms. A simple oak mantel and ivory tile hearth refresh the fireplace, while cream inset cabinets, slate-blue drawers, and pale quartz update the compact rear kitchen.

Visible Project Scope

  • Widened the living-to-dining opening and added sage-green casing.
  • Installed wide-plank white oak flooring throughout the main floor.
  • Retained the original brick fireplace and added an oak mantel and ivory tile hearth.
  • Updated the kitchen with inset cabinetry and pale quartz counters.
  • Added an aged-bronze pendant above the dining table.

Planning and Workmanship

Every renovation starts with the existing conditions at the property. Measurements, material compatibility, access, plumbing, electrical work, ventilation, structure, permits, and the construction sequence are reviewed before the final scope is confirmed.
