I was just saying to Joe the other day that it seems we operate in cycles, completing a series of kitchens followed by a series of bathrooms. I believe this cyclical nature is what prevents our work from becoming mundane.

As a company, we take pride in turning people's dreams into reality, and each project presents a unique set of challenges and opportunities. Personally, I find bathroom remodels to be particularly rewarding. We recently completed this impressive bathroom renovation, with a dramatic before-and-after transformation. The project involved a complete gutting of the existing space, which revealed several underlying issues that needed to be addressed. As is often the case with remodels, there were unexpected challenges to overcome, particularly with regards to the plumbing and flooring. However, once these issues were resolved, we were able to proceed with installing new plumbing, fixtures, cabinets, flooring, trim, and countertops. The renovated bathroom also features a freestanding tub, utility closet, and walk-in shower.

The key takeaway from this project is that while it may be tempting to simply add new materials to an existing structure, this approach can often lead to more problems down the line. A more thorough and thoughtful approach may require a greater upfront investment, but it ultimately saves time and money in the long run. Finding a trustworthy contractor can be a challenge as well, but our company is committed to delivering high-quality results while minimizing costs. If you're considering a bathroom, kitchen, or other remodel, we encourage you to contact us for a free estimate. We'll guide you through the process and help turn your vision into a reality.

Good morning!! Joe of All Trades has been busier than ever and it’s because of YOU!! Thank you to everyone that continues to share our name and love our work! We couldn’t keep growing this business without your referrals!! Thank you!

Cabinet painting has been our fastest growing area…and we understand! If you want to make a big change…paint your cabinets and give them a good refresh! Our latest project was a big one! We painted the laundry/mud room, living room builtins, dining room hutch and the entire kitchen cabinetry!!

One of the customers chief complaints was that the caulk originally used to fill in the gaps was cracking and actually had been since shortly after the last paint job 14 years before. They had also been nicked and damaged and house settling had created large gaps in the cabinet bases.

Prep work is about 90% of making sure your cabinets look great! The paint job is the other 10%! You can throw paint on a cabinet, but if you don’t prep it right, your job won’t last, especially in cabinetry that’s been painted previously.

We removed the previous caulk, filled in all the nicks and gaps and sanded the doors and bases to create a nice smooth finish! The cabinets look fresh, new and ready for another 14 years of wear and tear!

If you have cabinets that need a change…whether it’s a new stain, paint, or even new fronts…call Joe of All Trades for your free estimate today! We’d love to help freshen up your home!

February has been a crazy month! We’ve had whiplash with all the weather fluctuations and honestly haven’t had time to breathe…not that we could because we’ve been battling allergies on top of it all! Lol Gotta love winter in Texas!

We finished up this large remodel last week and are excited to finally share it with you all! As with every renovation, this one threw us a lot of curves. We knew there were some plumbing issues already as there were leaks and water damage, but until you remove the walls, it’s hard to know exactly what we are dealing with!

In this renovation, we took out an existing bathroom, 2 halls, moved an existing wall in the primary to make the room more functional and add more closet space in the primary closet and recreated the layout to make a large more functional primary bathroom. We also added more space to an existing 2nd bathroom that allowed for a second walk in shower. The new layout required moving the existing plumbing to add a new toilet area, a new stand alone bathtub, 2 new showers and a new vanity. Unfortunately, while removing the walls, active termites were also found, so treating and removing damaged wood and drywall was also added to the list of fixes!

New custom built cabinets and vanities were added to give the bathroom more functional space as well as larger doors and a walk in shower with no lip to allow easier access as the homeowners age. New flooring, tile, paint, and fixtures were added to create a sauna type feel to the primary bathroom.

Moving is always a chore, but sizing down a large house to a more manageable sized house when you retire can very difficult to say the least!

We got to work with two of the nicest homeowners to turn this new-to-them home into a place that they can live and age in place. That meant adding large, wheelchair accessible doors, adding ramps into the house and repurposing the garage for a utility room.

We touched every single part of this house. We removed all the popcorn ceilings, all the ceiling fans, both bathrooms, the entire kitchen and all the flooring. We reframed the garage, removing the old gas water heater, and we moved the plumbing for the washer/dryer from the kitchen to the new utility space in the garage. This opened up the old washer/dryer space for the homeowner to add a pantry! We added a new, smaller, whole house instant water heater and a mini split to help heat and cool the extra space. We added a handicap door access, and while working with an ordinance to keep the existing garage door space, we added a new custom built garage French door that allowed us to remove the garage door apparatus and allow for a more home-like feel rather than a garage feel. While enclosing the garage door is what the homeowner originally wanted, we could not get the permissions to enclose it so this was a great way to keep the look on the outside while still serving its purpose inside!

In the kitchen, new cabinets were installed and painted, as well as a new tile backsplash. A large pass through was cut in the wall to give a more open feel to the small space, and French doors were added to give access to the patio. We added new recessed lighting to brighten things up and a new ceiling fans in the dining area. A pre-existing door that led to a breeze through between the kitchen and garage was enclosed to become a hallway and a doggie door was added for the homeowners pup.

In the living room, we gave it a paint refresh, added a light above the new pass through to the kitchen, added a new ceiling fan and new flooring throughout. We painted the hallway cabinets and new doors were added and painted to give it a more modern feel.

The guest bathroom was gutted and a new vanity, along with a walk in shower replaced the bath/tub combo.

The primary bedroom and bathroom underwent a huge change. While it had an existing closet, the homeowners wanted to add an additional closet for her. We took space from garage and added 2 doors that allow access from the bedroom and then through to the new enclosed garage. This gave quick access to the door with the ramp and the bedroom (just in case) it was ever needed.

Finally, the new primary bathroom was enlarged by taking space from the existing garage. A new double vanity was added, new plumbing throughout, a wheelchair accessible toilet and a large walk in shower with handicap rails.

This was definitely a work of heart as these sweet homeowners will hopefully be able to spend the rest of their years on this earth, with ease, in their brand new home!
