Answering one of our most frequently asked questions

2024-04-02T15:44:51-04:00

One of the most common questions we answer from strangers is: "What paint color is that?" It can be quite amusing when I spot someone slowly creeping by our office, which happens to be located in a 19th Century Carriage Barn. I realize they're taking a photo from the front seat of their car and chuckle to myself because I know exactly what they're up to. But some are bolder than others. They park in the driveway, stride up to the office, and instead of popping in for a visit, they hold up paint chips, attempting to match a color in their hand with our siding or door color. It's rather hysterical. This scenario recently unfolded when Jason happened to be outside the barn. A gentleman approached with paint samples in hand. When Jason asked if he could assist him, the gentleman explained that he and his wife were

Custom Powder Room Vanity – Needham

2023-10-17T13:38:02-04:00

From its raw state, we designed and created a one-of-a-kind powder room vanity *All known materials listed at bottom of post* We first shared about CEO and Principal Designer/Craftsman Jason Hoffman's Black Walnut adventure here. Today, we're sharing the finished product of this bathroom remodel in Needham, MA.           As a refresher.... Below is a quick render of the design approved by our client. This is a result of Phase 3 of our Design Build process. Jason then started selecting the lumber, considering what part of the vanity each piece would be used for, paying special attention to color, grain patterns and figuring. From there, he started creating and fitting each individual piece.                 Next came sanding, finishing and assembly. Waterfall Countertop Inspiration Our client was inspired by a few, impactful, powder room photos she found on Houzz.com; see

We're honored once again, to have been selected by the Editors at Houzz.com as a Bathroom of the Week feature! Coincidently, we wrote about last year's highlight, exactly one year ago today, on July 27, 2021. See our Easton Primary Bathroom feature here. This time, our Luxury Primary Bathroom remodel in Needham was selected as Bathroom of the Week! Contributor Jeannie Matteucci interviewed Jason and myself to hear about our Design Build process and the inspiration behind the complete, bathroom overhaul. Unique elements help this bathroom stand out. From the large tub niche, to the scallop glass tile, and the custom designed double vanity with 100% usable storage (no faux drawers), this design stemmed from many conversations with our clients. We heard the pain points and wish list. As Jason mentioned in the interview, the caliber of this home was not meet with the previous Primary Bathroom. Our team

Forty Under 40 Winner! As seen in Pro Remodeler – April/May 2021 Issue Hello! Jason here. Megan posts 95% of our social media posts but I’m taking over temporarily to highlight a very important award. I’m late to the party as this was announced in April but Megan forgets that I too have access to our blog and better late than never! Although she’s happy to have the title “under 40” near her name, Megan is uncomfortable with attention. But as the 1st person our clients connect with and a regular voice, face and advisor through our renovation process, I felt it important to highlight this well-deserved recognition. Megan has been named a 2021 Forty Under 40 Winner by Pro Remodeler, a media channel and magazine that inspires and educates businesses in the residential remodeling industry.
