Our client loved their existing home in their Lake City neighborhood but needed more room when it became necessary to provide a space for mom. They knew it would also be a worthwhile investment for years because new regulations make selling “mother-in-law” cottages separately from the main home possible. The gain from this investment could be realized as either rental income or a lump sum for their retirement.

We referred our client to one of J & M’s preferred designers, whom we worked with to develop an ideal floorplan with an exterior design in keeping with the existing home’s style. The two-story layout includes a full kitchen, bathroom, a spacious bedroom and loft area, ample storage, and a large great room. The entry leads to the kitchen and great room area, which features beautiful hardwood flooring and abundant recessed lighting overhead.

Our clients first contacted us to execute their kitchen remodel design and install new flooring. As the project progressed, the client added to the scope of work, including their primary bathroom, entryway, stairs, trim, and paint throughout. As a result, the renovation project ties all areas of their home together impeccably. When you first walk in, the beautiful curved staircase and a breathtaking chandelier welcome you. The new flooring flows throughout the kitchen, where the stunning remodel features top-of-the-line fixtures and appliances. The sub-zero refrigerator and freezer are fully integrated and consistent and do not distract from the kitchen design. The completed kitchen features ample storage and many new custom cabinets and glass displays. The new island, with a custom corner bench, creates an entirely new dining area, while the transformed old nook became an ample storage and prep area with an integrated dishwasher.

Throughout the entire remodel project, the flooring, paint, and millwork seamlessly contribute to the cohesion of the environment. The theme continues up the grand staircase and into the primary bathroom with the bright and welcoming white, and the show-stopper Crystallo Quartzite is on the new tub deck and vanity. The jeweled light fixtures also continue, reflecting the client’s style. The curbless shower features a linear drain, rain shower, and handheld, all enclosed by floor-to-ceiling glass. Every aspect of this multiroom renovation flows beautifully, with impeccable craftsmanship and attention to detail.

Budgetary considerations are always top-of-mind, but the client was confident that our crew would complete the tasks with the utmost quality. They engaged us for the remaining projects after seeing the kitchen work commence. The challenges included giving special consideration to limiting volatile organic compounds (VOCs) emitted during construction for the safety of their pets, as well as keeping dust and disruption to a minimum. Everything turned out beautifully, and we are excited to work with this client on the remaining tasks they intend to complete at their immaculate rural oasis.

We are very proud of the review that our clients posted on our Google business profile:
“J&M is focused on Customer Service and delivering quality service. Ryan, the project lead has exceptional attention to detail and workmanship.
He communicated extremely well throughout the extensive remodel. The work involved almost all areas of our home, but the primary remodel areas were the Kitchen and Master Bath.
We would highly recommend J&M.”

We are grateful for all of our customers, no matter the size or complexity of their projects. We have been fortunate on quite a few occasions to work for customers who are in the home design business. That was the case with our recent Seattle customer, who had quite a few ideas about the work we performed on the kitchen and bathrooms in her home. Her choice of finishes and design really helped make the project pop and was a joy to work on. Our customer enjoyed the experience and the result, and left us a great five-star Google review that you can read below or see the original at this link:

“Our experience with working with J&M Remodel exceeded our expectations and then some! We had our whole house remodeled including the kitchen and bathrooms and from start to finish the crew at J&M were easy to work with-they listened, the work down to the last detail was impeccable and they truly cared about the work they were doing, including staying within budget. We would recommend J&M in a heartbeat to anyone who is looking for a contractor that will get the job done right, on time and granted nothing unexpected is uncovered, on budget. Thank you to Justin, Mandy, Ryan and Carlos for making our old, falling apart home beautiful-we can’t wait to move back in!”
