New Back Entry

Additions allow updating, upgrading and complete change to a structure, the look and it’s function.  When done properly the project adds convenience and value, reduces maintenance and operational expense.

This new back entry now accommodates a small sitting area overlooking the pool.  The windows are clad with stacked retractable sun shades; when down they allow the space to function as a screened porch..

This 1950’s home needed insulation and a re-vamp on the exterior.  Completed with character suitable to the mature neighbourhood.

Family home grows…

This home needed to double in size to accommodate multi generations, a trend we have seen since 2010.  The key is to design something that feels like it belongs, so that everyone fits.

Repair driven renovation

This property suffered a slow water leak in the bay window for years.  Replacing the window exposed extensive damage, but was a great opportunity to update the look of the house and fix the problem.

Board & Baton Exterior

Interior renovations improve a home substantially  without adding to the square footage. The results can make a home feel much larger, more livable and increase value – when they are well designed and well built.

Clients’ Wishes

This home needed insulation, windows and a character lift.  Pine board was used on the exterior after sealing up the drafts and adding foam board.  Steel roof and a wrap around porch and screen room we added as well as extensive patio space in the rear.

Century Farmhouse Project

Restoring the original beauty and charm is the desired result and  also requires special care.  

Renovating older homes respectfully and appropriately is a specialty at Cedar Ridge.

This house had been vacant for years, last used by tenants working on the larger farm property.  The motivation was to create a modern comfortable space, using the existing original timber structure combined with a gathering room addition replacing the old “back kitchen”.
