A Greater Seattle Roof With Almost No Insulation
We opened a greater Seattle roof and found 0–2 inches of attic insulation. Fall was coming, so we blew in fresh fiberglass for a real R-value — an opportunity, not just a problem.

Real Eastside and Seattle remodels from the work we've actually done. Each one started with a conversation and an honest scope, and ended with a room the homeowner let us back into. Open any project for the full story.
We opened a greater Seattle roof and found 0–2 inches of attic insulation. Fall was coming, so we blew in fresh fiberglass for a real R-value — an opportunity, not just a problem.
A 100-year-old two-piece bath became a single curbless walk-in shower — wall-mount toilet, gold-accent tile, and a shower head and niche set for tall homeowners, not a catalog default.
Day one of a Bellevue fireplace remodel — the dated stone came out, a new gas fireplace went in, and custom lit built-ins turned a blank wall into the room's reason to gather.
We step inside a real Seattle-area addition during the mechanical, electrical, and plumbing stage — zoned heat-pump cooling, 14-gauge wiring, and condensation drains that protect the investment before the drywall closes.
A cramped Mercer Island master bath opened up — a wall-hung toilet, an all-glass shower, and a pocket door that stole back the inches the old swing door wasted.
A storm-damaged Bellevue patio became a wood-frame awning retreat — honest pricing, an expert crew, and an outdoor room you'll actually want to come home to.
An old, dark Mercer Island room brightened with wainscoting, fresh paint, refinished floors, new shades, and a replaced door — a full-room refresh without a full-room gut.
We revived tired engineered wood floors in a Seattle home with expert sanding, staining, and a multi-coat finish — brand-new looking floors without a full replacement.
Corroded galvanized pipes on a Mercer Island job — we replaced the full run with modern PEX rather than chasing leaks. Piecemeal fixes lose; a clean repipe wins.
A Seattle bathroom with hand-laid Spanish tile — careful color blending, a shampoo niche set where you reach, and the kind of layout that only looks effortless after it's done.
Two Seattle baths on one plan — a tired '90s full bath turned spa, and a small full bath opened up by removing a wall that was stealing the room.
We open a Seattle wall and walk through the bones — studs, headers, king and jack studs — so you know what's carrying the house before anyone removes it.
A crumbling red clay chimney in Seattle — pressure-washed, tuckpointed with fresh mortar, broken bricks matched, and a protective cap put on. Revived, not sold as a scare.
Under a Seattle bath we found rotted 1960s tongue-and-groove car decking — the kind of hidden floor problem that turns a simple remodel into a structural fix. We caught it and repaired it right.
On a Mercer Island bath and laundry remodel, the old dryer vent sat exactly where the new shower glass wanted to go. We rerouted it clean through the crawl space, code-compliant, zero drama.
A Seattle kitchen pull-out drawer that caught and rattled, replaced with a properly installed glide in one visit — the kind of no-job-too-small fix that quietly takes a daily annoyance off your hands.
On a greater Seattle roof replacement we opened the attic from above and found next to no insulation. We blew in fresh fiberglass while the crew was already there — the do-it-once move.
Balanced intake at the soffits and exhaust at the ridge give a Seattle attic its own breeze — lower attic temps, a longer-lived roof, and an upstairs that stops feeling like an oven in July.

How every one of these began
No two of these started with a low bid. They started with us standing in the room that was, talking about the room that could be — and a price that didn't move on week four. Every project carries a 1-year warranty and direct access to Andrew and Niki.
