This is the best restoration and improvement of a home I’ve seen since I used to watch “This Old House” on PBS. I am extremely impressed with the skill and care taken with this restoration. I can’t imagine what sort of squatters were living in this house prior to its restore. The exterior and especially the interior of the home were literally ghastly, as if no human could ever hope to live in such utter filth as was left behind. I’d say whatever asking price for the restored home is worth it because the before and after condition proves this home’s restored value.

I liked how the team concentrated on fixing the potential trouble spots and did not just make it look pretty to mask the rot beneath the surface. What I didn’t see, however, was insulation yet cannot imagine that such an important step would have been omitted.

Some of the points I could share with this renovation….

1. Would be far better to put ceiling insulation before installing ceiling drywalls.

2. It would be far easier to install the flooring before installing all the interior doors.

3. It would be much easier to paint the entire house before installing floors.

4. Some say it’s crucial to paint the tub walls with redguard to prevent water leaking behind tile.

But I’ve heard some states don’t require it based on building codes. Other than that it’s a great job.
