Ladysmith Renovation 

The Project: Renovated a large oceanfront home that hadn’t been touched since the 1980s

This large oceanfront home was built in the late 1980s and still retained much of its original décor, including dark blue carpets, dim lighting, yellowish stained wood trim and gold-coloured light fixtures and door hardware.

Made to Last installed new hardwood throughout the home, new carpet in the bedrooms and wainscoting in all the main living areas. We updated the lighting and installed new baseboard and trim, then painted all the walls and trim and whitewashed the ceiling boards. We also took out all the kitchen cabinets, stripping them down and lacquering them white, then re-installed them along with a new backsplash, countertops and hardware to give the kitchen a completely new look and feel.

By the end of the renovation, the house had undergone a complete transformation, from a dark outdated space into a bright and beautiful home.
