Bathroom Remodeling
Flooring
This is a log cabin we built in Bretton Woods, NH in 2016. It’s a 2 bedroom, 1 bath with a sleeping loft that has a built in queen size bed and sleeping cubbies for the kids. On the interior we installed hand scraped, aged hickory hardwood floors and lighter finished hickory kitchen cabinets. In the loft we made a heavy duty fir ladder and tapered it to simulate the taper of a tree. As a surprise to the owners we inlaid a couple of bears along with bear tracks. To go with the bear theme we hand cut bears out of the hickory flooring to make the heat system floor registers. On the exterior we built a wrap around deck with drawknifed, rustic cedar railings.
Fireplaces
Whether it’s four, framed walls to start a new project, stacking the logs of a new log home, installing a raised panel fireplace mantel or hand cutting a mortise and tenon joint for a custom cabinet, there is a great deal of satisfaction in standing back at the end if the day to see what you’ve created. To see the delight of a happy homeowner is an added bonus that never gets old.
Over the past 40+ years we have averaged between four to six custom and semi-custom homes per year along with numerous custom home additions and remodels each year, as well as an occasional commercial job. We also offer custom cabinetry and cabinet making along with custom woodworking we create in our own wood shop.

Actually, it’s a 32ft. diameter, 8 sided or octagon house. It’s Yurt inspired, and has an open floor plan, as a true circular Yurt would have. It has 3 bedrooms, 2 full baths, with an open loft. The master bedroom is on the second floor with a full bath. Three of the 8 sides have dormers to create additional usable space upstairs. The exterior will be finished with red cedar shakes, vertical shiplap siding and a wrap around deck with rustic white cedar railings.
