Charlotte Outdoor Living Patio Wood & Stone Structure Remodeling Projects Look Awesome!

There has always been something really pretty about designing and building with different types of wood and stone.  The big pines, cedars and redwoods just look amazing with different stones.

This photo is from a recent Home-a-rama entrance.  I really think the beauty of the design, the rafters, the “heaviness” of the wood and stone give this structure a feeling of strength, stability, longevity and endurance.

The curving cut of the braces give this structure character and spirit!

Now how would you use this at your home?  We’ve designed and built so many different kind of outdoor structures, patios, gazebos, pool homes, and outdoor kitchens.  But wouldn’t this look good as a style to anchor your outdoor kitchen?  Or what about covering a patio by the pool or a stoop outside your patio door? 

These next photos are just some different ideas of projects that the Charlotte Remodeling Company has completed for homes around Charlotte.

Charlotte Porch, Patio & Entryway Roof Coverings – Adds Beauty & Function to Your Charlotte Home!

Here’s an idea to add functionality and character to your home…add a decorative roof covering over an entry way into your home!

Together with their functional and decorative features, such as doors, steps, balustrades, pilasters, and entablatures, entrances and porches can be extremely important in defining the overall character of a building.

This particular client project was to design and build a matching roof covering over an exterior entry door to a wine cellar.  The roof covering adds beauty while giving the homeowner functionality for protection from the weather.

If you would like to add these affordable roof coverings to your home’s entryways, please call Charles Brown at 704-605-9695 or email cbrown@charlotteremodelingcompany.com.  You’ll love the results when you add this beautiful remodeling project to your Charlotte porch!

Charlotte Home Remodeling Includes Custom Wood and Craftsman Projects!

Remodeling, building and construction projects include everything from kitchen remodels to new room additions to basement refinishing to building custom indoor and outdoor projects!  We’ve seen just about everything that can be designed and constructed for a home over these many years.

This project was a fun addition that the homeowner asked us to design and build as a gift for their family.  The family enjoyed spending time outdoors in their yard and wanted something “special” where family members could spend quiet times and enjoy their yard.

We designed and constructed this very functional combination of a trellis and sitting area with a swinging bench.  The homeowner can put special plants around the area and has even started some flowering vines on either side of the new trellis!

Our capabilities are endless with design, material choice and custom construction for your home.   Whether it is a remodel or a new build, you can trust us to do a fantastic job the very first time!

Charlotte Kitchen Remodeling Trends for 2011!

There are exciting new trends in 2011 for Charlotte homeowners and their kitchen remodeling plans!  The trends that we are seeing develop for 2011 and beyond appear to retain value and are more popular trends across most people’s particular interests, which bodes well for resells!

So let’s look at what we see as the top kitchen remodeling trends for 2011:

Top Charlotte Kitchen Remodeling Trends

1.  Going “Green” is the most trendy kitchen style.  And this “green” is actually the color green.  Although appliance choices are still selected with the environment and energy use in mind, the color green has emerged as the popular trend.  Shaker design (which we love in Charlotte!) is a close second trending choice.

2.  Stainless Steel is the most trendy cabinetry.  Recycled materials, maple, and then birch are the next choices for kitchen cabinetry.

3.  Reclaimed Wood is the most trendy floor.  Reclaimed wood is a great choice for giving your kitchen a warm and inviting feel.  Bamboo (very environmentally popular) and wood floors are second and third.

4.  Engineered Stone is the most trendy counter top  .  Now you get into the discussion of whether Corian or Silestone is the better choice.  We’ll let you make that decision!  Concrete was second and granite was the third choice in this trend.

5.  Pullout Spray Style is the most trendy faucet.  Second was stainless steel and third was the single-handle faucet. 

6.  Metal is the most trendy refrigeration.  By far, metal is the top trending choice in kitchen appliances.  It’s the designer look of metal that is most appealing.

7.  Induction Cook top is the most trendy cooking option.  Gas was second and the wall oven was trending in third place.

8.  Table as Island is the most trendy kitchen island.  A cooking center was second and a standard kitchen island was trending third.  The “table as island” is a great way to bring the family together in the center of the kitchen cooking action!

We have deep, extended experience in remodeling and building kitchens of all types, sizes and budgets.  Please call the Charlotte Remodeling Company and Charles Brown at 704-605-9695 for a free in-person consultation about your kitchen remodeling project!
