Charles – Overworked and Overwhelmed

Persona:

Divorced father of two lovely children.

Problem:

Tried to remodel a house, manage a bank and raise two children!

Solution:

Hire Building Ideas to remodel his ‘new’ home.

Both baths were extremely small, dark and, well, ugly!  Moved walls to add space, added lots of lighting, installed new vanities, fixtures, and full-wall mirrors to update the look and create a more spacious feeling.

Bedrooms were wallpapered with poor lighting.  Removed wallpaper, painted and updated lighting.

Tips:

Small spaces benefit from extra lighting and mirrors to ‘trick’ the eye into thinking the room is more spacious!

Fun Facts:

Charles enjoys playing guitar, but had little energy left to do so after working at work, and also at his home remodel!  Now that his home is a home again, both he and his son, Will, enjoy playing guitars together, and Charles is even taking guitar lessons!

"I purchased an older house that needed to be updated and loved. I had a general idea of what I wanted and a budgeted amount to spend. My original plan was to live in the basement while I remodeled the upstairs. I soon found out that the task was overwhelming and that I needed help and a plan with vision. Working with Angelique throughout the whole process proved to save time, money and stress. Her experience and vision of a finished product made the project easier. She listened to my ideas, paid attention to details and provided a finished product that exceeded my expectations. I am very pleased that Angelique was available to handle my project. I will certainly use her services again and highly recommend anyone with a project to use her services. We were able to meet time and budget goals. I feel better now about calling my house a home. My children and I are comfortable living in a home that reflects our taste and ideas. Our ideas and feelings were respected throughout the process."
