The goal of this remodeling project was to fix the flat roof by replacing it. There had been some large areas of damage from ice dams around the fireplace and the fascia. The homeowner wanted to replace the roof with a pitched roof to prevent any future problems. The roof replacement evolved into a total renovation as the homeowner decided to change some things inside the home as well.

After the roof was replaced, Krueger Construction removed all of the exterior wall plaster, siding and windows. They then added vaults and trays to the ceilings in several rooms. After that, Koopman Insealators sprayed all of the exterior walls and roof with a polyurethane insulation to quiet the highway noise and make this 46-year-old home more energy-efficient.


After the insulation was complete, Krueger Construction rounded all the corners of the new drywall and added columns. New tile floors were also installed using marble, granite and ceramic tiles. The old metal cabinets in the kitchen were replaced with knotty alder cabinets topped with granite countertops.

A 12’ x 12’ screened-in porch was added featuring knotty pine V-grooved wallboards on the walls with beadboard and crown molding on the ceiling.

The plan in this renovation was to bring the home up-to-date and create new usable space throughout the main living areas.

What began as a roof replacement turned into a whole-house transformation, bringing this house back to life.
