* NEWS OF INTEREST *
MORE THAN SMOKE Our featured project
is slowly, but surely, taking shape. After a four month wait to get
all the necessary permits, we went ahead with the interior demolition in
the first week of April. Scaffolding was erected right on the roof,
wrapping the existing chimney. Immediately, seven weeks of work
began with the fifteen foot chimney extension, which is the "backbone" of
the house structure . You see, everything revolves around this load
bearing masonry masterpiece, including the new roof, which will be
reframed with the twelve existing, salvaged rafters. Scheduled for
July, the roof will rise up to its new height, one story taller.
Stay tuned. Watch the weekly updated
video clips.
GREEN Yes, it's the color of money. But it's also an inevitable new trend in new home construction and in existing home remodeling. Yes, building and remodeling green have a lot to do with the environment, but it is so much more than that. And, in the end, the real winners are the occupants of the new living quarters, you. Find out how, before you undertake any other project. We just came across this newly published book called Good Green Homes. Learn more about this book from this short newspaper article. You can also learn more about green homes by following our featured project, Transformations.
We were fortunate enough to find twelve 200 years old beams for our Transformations project. You should see these beauties; It was love at first sight! You will be able to appreciate these beauties and judge for yourself right here. Make sure to leave time in your busy schedule for a date with them. And here's the place where they were hiding, waiting for the world to appreciate their uniqueness and character: Reclamation Lumber LLC, New Haven CT.
HEATING THE FLOOR, NOT THE AIR This
excellent article on the subject was published in The New York Times
last year. After reading this article, we were commissioned by a
client to "heat the basement floor,
not the air". Because of the resulting comfort, ease of
maintenance, value and energy-efficiency, hydronic radiant heat is also as
inevitable as the green building movement. QUIZ Everyone loves an entertaining quiz. This short one will do more than that: It could be a life saver. Before you move on and go ahead with your next remodeling project and hire a contractor, take this True or False 15 Questions Quiz.

* HAVE A $100 DINNER ON US Are you aware that
your recently completed project became "Our Working Showroom"* and you have
become "Our Best Salesperson"? When your support
results into a signed project with us, we will show our gratitude to those who recommend
us and to those of you who open their doors to let one of our prospective customers see
"the Working Showroom"*. We'll send you to
dinner at one of Westchester's premiere restaurants, Peter Pratt's Inn, on us! (A $100
value. Good for a la carte dining, Tuesdays
to Sundays). Peter Pratt's Inn
was recently awarded a four star rating by Gerry Dawes, a writer for The Journal News. You can find out more by visiting the web site,

You'll be able to review the menu and wine list, and even get directions. We
recommend printing the map. Bon Appetit! *What WE call a "Working Showroom" is an actual, real, functional project (i.e.: kitchen, bathroom) that has been built around existing conditions, restrictions and obstructions, as opposed to those setup showrooms found in retailer's displays where the only limitation is the designer's imagination! ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
