  • Let There Be Light

    Good lighting is one of the most important elements we consider when designing a project for a homeowner. Along with including plenty of recessed lighting, we provide room for decorative lights that can add good style. Here are some examples of beautiful decorative lights in some recent Wood Wise projects. Each light is a reflection of the homeowner’s personality and sense of style. What does your present lighting say about you? What do you want the lighting to say about you in your dream kitchen and bath?

  • Beauty and Efficiency

    The kitchen sink is a star player in this kitchen remodel. The homeowners chose the Kohler Stages to meet both their cooking needs and make a great design impact. This under mount single bowl sink is a whopping 45” wide and comes with a stepped side platform for drying dishes. An array of accessories come with it, including food prep bowls, trays, and cutting boards, all of which fit the opening. It makes use of a usually wasted counter area and keeps food juices confined to the sink. The engineered sound-absorption system significantly reduces disposal and dishwashing noise. What kind of sink do you want in your new kitchen?

  • Happy New Year!

    New Year’s resolution: make 2015 the year you call Wood Wise and start enjoy your remodeled home. Join the many happy Wood Wise clients like Mary and David who have this to say about their 2014 remodeling experience that included an addition with master bedroom and bathroom:

     

     “We could not be more satisfied with the entire experience of the construction of an addition to our house. All of the people at Wood Wise, including the subcontractors, were professional, friendly, courteous, and prompt. The selection process was made easy with guidance from Kathy. The project manager, Ben, was extremely organized and always was on top of the smallest of details. We looked forward to talking to him each day. He really kept the project rolling. We can’t say enough good things about Hank and the entire Wood Wise team!”

  • Good Experience

    When we finish a remodeling project, our homeowners are asked to take a survey about their experience with Wood Wise. Here is one recent comment we received from a homeowner who just finished her second Wood Wise remodeling project:

     

    Kathy (Wood Wise’s designer) used her experience and talent to point out key things during the selection process that I would have missed, like making sure templates were laid in the best possible place on the granite slabs to take advantage of attractive lines or to avoid “ugly spots.” Ben (Wood Wise’s project manager) paid particular attention to my comments and always quickly resolved concerns (like getting crown molding to match my existing moldings) or explained things I didn’t understand. And Greg (Wood Wise’s head carpenter) did a beautiful job with details as always like my chair rail! My thanks to all of them!”

     

  • Warm and Open

    In keeping with the contemporary look of this recent whole house remodel, Wood Wise designed and built these great looking stair rails. The powder-coated steel cables look sleek and keep the view open. The oak posts and handrail add warmth and seem to flow from the wood floors.

  • Party Ready

    Check out this dream kitchen, ready for holiday entertaining. Wood Wise recently completed this whole house renovation, taking out walls and making better use of the existing space. Now the kitchen is open to the living area, making traffic flow better and filling the area with light. Clean lines and updated finishes add to the gorgeous transformation.

  • From Design to Music

    Ever wondered what a remodeler does in his spare time? One activity Hank enjoys is making music. Each week he looks forward to getting together with some friends in the evening to jam. Here’s Hank on the guitar, rockin’ out in the Wood Wise showroom. Go, Hank!
