Home stuff
Okay, I'm showing off. I just finished a couple photos for a potential customer so I figured I'd share them.

The picture I'm showing is my first concrete counter attempt and is installed in my own home - on my kitchen island bar. The other focus is the pole wrap technique I've used. I've never, ever seen it done elsewhere and all my internet searches has failed to turn up a picture like it. Finally you'll see the floor with the diamond mosaic inlays. I'm kinda partial to that.

My first undermount sink with concrete countertops. Actually, it's my second. The first effort dried too dry and shattered when I pulled it out of the form.

Here's a picture of the marquis during construction and after. The after pic doesn't do this justice. It's a real presence in the basement.

i know you made me happy...

this gives me another chance to say thank you...

and to recommend you to anyone who needs some top of the line quality and workmanship...

highly skilled and very creative...

an unusual combination...

color me a very satisfied customer...

That's phenomenal, Phil.


I know this: If Sal and I ever move to KC, you'll have a client for life.

Great work.

Thanks guys - that's very high praise. FWIW, I created this thread originally because I was taking pictures to close the deal for the basement you see pictured today. You can see I employed the concrete counter design and mosiac wrapped poles just as in my own home. I really wish I had the time and money to do mine like I did theirs.

Damn...I'm jealous. If I ever 1) move to KC, 2) own a home, and 3) need some remodel work done, I won't hesitate to give you a call!

Heh. You guys haven't even seen the good pictures yet. There's a big TV hanging on the wall off to the right of the bar. The one across from the bar is only a 40". This is a true man-cave.

Great job (as usual)! It's really a shame you don't live here in ABQ.

I have a great Arts and Crafts home. My current problem is I'm looking at demoing my POS garage and putting in a two story garage with an office on the second floor. My problem is I want it to look right with my house.

Here a link to the garage plans I'm looking at and I've attached a pic of my house. Do you think the two would look good together or not. The garage would be 30 feet or so away from the house.

There's two things popping out to me. Your house has a hip roof throughout. The garage is a gabled roof which is important for the finished office upstairs. It will probably be alright but it's something to be aware of. Are you considering a breezeway attaching the house to the garage?

The second thing is the posts. Make sure they design the garage posts to match the house or the garage will catch your eye from the street. You don't want your garage to have more curb appeal than your house.

Oh no. I'm a sucker for those people. Heh. I'll probably hire him but it kinda depends on my next few projects. I've been turning over people pretty regularly. Some people don't want to work. Believe it or not, I just have people who stop showing up. Crazy industry.
