Mancave Creation
These are two of our favorite projects in the mancave-variety.
The first is a lounge we built for a client. We painted all the walls, trim, and wainscoting, installed new lighting, built a small bar, and then decorated it with a dart board and some wall memorabilia. He wanted a place where he could have a cigar and relax after a long day of work, and he really liked the design we put together.
The second project is a beer pong table/ping pong table that we built for a client. He is a huge tennis fan, so we built him a to scale replica tennis court complete with real astroturf, LED lighting that changes colors with music, and it is foldable for storage. This table was a huge hit and such a fun project to design and build out.
In the gallery below, this was an underground room stemming off of our client’s garage. As you can see, it started as a blank canvas, and we converted it to a mancave. We sealed all the walls and got the moisture levels down to a reasonable level, built a custom wine rack and custom steel platform that would support the wine rack and all the wine.
We also trimmed out the door with a wood veneer and then stained all the wood in the room. We also had to hide the sump pump discharge line within the wine rack and still make it accessible for maintenance. We refinished the railing and stair treads to make the entrance much more inviting.
Flooring
This was a garage update project. We did some:
- Drywall repair on the ceiling and walls
- Painted the walls
- Painted the ceiling
- Trim
- Repaired some rotten baseboard by the garage door
- Added a new rubber strip to prevent water from intruding into the garage
- Put down an epoxy floor which turned out great!
The client called it his “Mona Lisa!”
In the pictures below, we replaced all the flooring in this 1,000- sq. ft. condo. The owner was planning on renting it out, but he wanted to fix it up first. We deep cleaned the entire house (bathroom, kitchen, walls, etc) and then replaced all the flooring with LVP. We also replaced the toilet, too.
Wall Designs
This client wanted more privacy from their neighbor, so we built them this wall. A granite countertop was later added but we installed the supports for the wall.
You can see the before and after photos. We built the wall, anchored it to the concrete patio, weatherproofed it, and then painted it to match the rest of the house.
In the gallery below, there was a tile backsplash we did for a local salon called Charles Proper. This was in their bar area, and they wanted to do something fun and unique in this space. This project took 2 days, and they were very happy!
Also in the gallery was an instant upgrade for my clients. They wanted to design a lounge space in their condo. They wanted to do a slat wall and try to keep the sound down for their neighbors.
We introduced them to these acoustic slat wall panels. They dampen sound and look great! Once they were glued and screwed to the wall, the room sounded much quieter and had so much instant character. The amazing thing is this entire room was done in 1 day!
