It's the time of year when we start thinking about our indoor spaces.

One 'special' space is the bathroom: busy, essential, and often in need of a polish. Maybe yours needs a new floor, new vanity, new wall treatment, or maybe that old bathtub's just gotta go.

I did all of the above for this client's cottage bathroom, and brightened it up with new porcelain tile too.

If it's a cottage bathroom, the off-season is a perfect time to get an update. Give me a call!

Just finished this job for a new customer. They had a deck, but it wasn't quite stable enough and there was no railing.

To make it safe, I added more structure underneath. Then came the fun part: aviation wire for the railing.

You have to look to see it in that final photo, and that was the goal: a railing with a view. While we often think of glass, this is a much more cost-effective solution.

In the 9+ years I've been offering my services in cottage country, I've been lucky to connect with a few clients that call on me to create unique solutions.

I first met Grace 7 years ago. She lives in a Quonset hut (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quonset_hut), and I know when she calls on me, it'll be an interesting design request: anything from hanging a ceiling fan, to railings and fences built with wood from her land, to custom doors, to pine ceilings, to an external wood façade.

She was kind enough to share a testimonial of our work together:

"I have the vision, and Kip makes it a reality. He easily adapts to the diverse nuances of any project. He can think outside the box. He's creative and envisions what's described to him, offering experience and suggestions along the way. I would have him back over and over again."

Adding a smaller structure or sheltered space creates function and value for a home or cottage property.

Over the years, I've built a variety of them: storage sheds, boat houses, barbecue gazebos, sleeping bunkies, and front porches.

The former owner built this shed with an upper loft, accessible only by ladder from the outside, to store their pool parts.

I altered the roofline to align more with the other outbuilding and then upgraded the inside plywood shell to make it a private workspace/getaway.

The previous owner left a deck with three addons for their hot tub. Left vacant, the various pieces were unattractive and, without a proper railing, the deck wasn't safe to use.

Here's how I fixed it up.
