We recently completed the last of the three homes, and all three are leased.  Below are some pictures of one of the first one we tackled – 2608 Adam Road, a 1981 model three bedroom, two bath home. In addition to cleaning up the yard and installing new shutters, a concrete front porch slab, and a porch awning, the remodel included new sub-floor, new flooring, all new bath fixtures, new paint and several repairs.

Here are some before pictures of 2608 Adam

1502 Rib

This is a 3 BR 2 Bath 16 x 80 single wide with an attached screened-in porch.  We remodeled the master bath and second bath, installed new flooring throughout most of the house, repaired multiple broken or missing windows, installed new counter tops and sink base cabinets, made many repairs to the plumbing, and painted everything.

We completed a major rehab project last year at 1601 Hill Street in Joplin, MO.  Having put a lot of sweat and hours into this project we all grew attached to the little two bedroom house that needed a lot of TLC as the real estate ads say (which interpreted means MAJOR SURGERY!) Our crew performed an extreme makeover including: new roof, siding, fascia, and soffit; new vinyl insulated windows; new guttering and downspouts; new sheetrock; new electrical wiring, distribution panel, and fixtures; new water and drain lines; new water heater; removed an old circulator gas heater and older floor furnace, and installed new central heating and air conditioning; installed all new bathroom fixtures; new carpet; refinished the wood floors in two rooms; installed new laminate flooring, cabinets, and appliances in the kitchen; finished the back porch to make it a usable interior space; installed new interior doors & trim; painted all interior walls and ceilings; added a second bath where a closet had been; added two new closets; painted the foundation and both the front and back porches and/or steps.

Here are some selected photos taken after completion. Just click on each one to enlarge it. You’ll want to compare these with the “before” pictures published earlier on this site.

The house had been spray-painted without masking the windows and foundation, etc., so to the casual passerby I’m guessing the sea foam green color didn’t inspire admiration for this little two bedroom on a corner lot. We repaired the rotted sections of fascia and soffit, tore off the little lean-to back porch awning, repaired the rotted decking along the roof edges, put on new roof shingles, installed new aluminum fascia and vinyl soffit, and hung new vinyl siding. Oh yes, we replaced all of the old windows with new vinyl insulated windows. You can see from the pics that this exterior makeover was quite a transformation.

Inside we  updated the plumbing and electrical, installed new gas lines, removed the old circulator heater and floor furnace and installed central heat and air, added a second bath and two new closets, tore out the old ceilings that had been lowered so we could have the original nine foot ceilings again, updated the original bathroom, installed new Sheetrock almost everywhere, updated the laundry room, drywalled the back porch, and installed new kitchen cabinets and new flooring.

Here are a few pictures of the “before” look.

Be sure to check out the  “after” pictures. This little house received our version of an extreme makeover!

This new two bedroom 1 bath home located at 1402 East Valley Street was completed in April 2008 and is now leased.

A Major Remodel Project in Royal Heights

One of our most challenging projects last year was a major remodel at 2511 Vandalia in Joplin, which included moving walls and the stairwell and changing the floor plan. This major remodel was fun and challenging!  Some before and after pictures are shown here:
