Wide opens spaces were the best thing that happened to the space, now it flows into the adjoining areas.

Some extra storage they didnt know they were getting, nancy had her eye on this so we decided to surprise her and add it in as a little bonus.

Great us use of space, designed by Robin Finnegan

Not only does this shower have jets in every direction, but it also has the option to turn into their very own steam shower. 

Hired Bob as a Designing and installing new bathrooms in 2011, I wish we had known about KraftMaster when we were having our kitchen redone last year.

These Chatham, NJ homeoweners commissioned KraftMaster to design and build a unique new space, the soaking spa.

This Master bathroom now welcomes in the outdoors with the new bay window, adding much needed volume when we took the wall down in this makeover.

Our mission was to strike gold in this craftsman kitchen resurrected from the 70's

We moved from the city to the suburbs and we knew going in that we wanted to redo the kitchen and open up the living space, as soon as spring came around. Initially, we interviewed a couple architects, but all they wanted to do was to mold the house into their vision and not ours. Then we found Bob and he immediately knew what we wanted to do with the space and more importantly knew our design aesthetic.

Converting a Basement

In the times of recession, it isn’t always practical, or financially viable to buy luxury items such as leather couches let alone to move into a larger home. But there may be a way to get the most out of your property, without having to do major building works or spend large amounts of money. If you have a basement in your house you may be able to make use of this area to add both value and space to your home with a minimum of outlay.

Firstly you need to decide what type of space you want, if you wish to use it as a bedroom, you may need to undertake further minor building works to ensure the space is waterproof, that the drywall is not damp and that it will be comfortable. As this is an underground area with no lighting, you may wish to use it as an area for sleeping, or ensure that the lighting in the room will be sufficient for your requirements.  For those with teenage children, privacy and leisure time for them may be beneficial for the whole family. Providing them with a room away from the family space that they can bring their friends to and entertain themselves is ideal. You could provide a pool table, a television and a refrigerator. Locating a music system in a basement area could keep noise pollution from being a problem, particularly with neighbours. Soundproofing is easy to install, and if you or your family are musically inclined then a music room in the basement could provide and entertaining family space in which you can play to your heart’s content.

For those with younger children, this space could be used as a playroom to keep toys contained to one area and reclaim the home as an area for the whole family.  Children love the idea of having their own space and provided there is sufficient lighting they could let their imaginations run free.

A home office is another option for a basement space. It is suitably removed from the home to provide minimum disturbance and noise, but again you must ensure that the lighting is sufficient for your working environment.

A basement may not seem the most obvious choice for extending your home, but it is one worth considering. In times of austerity we need to maximise the use of the whole of our homes, and the more living space for us and our families, the better.

It is atypical to find a company and owner/operator with the morals, ethics, standards of excellence, creativity and personality that meets or exceeds their representation or quotation.
