PROJECT: Condo Rehab (The Mariner Building)
Boston’s North End
OBJECTIVE:
- The customer had the utility room with washer & dryer, water tank and electrical panel in the middle of the condo but they wanted an open floor plan.
- After The utility closet demo we moved the washer & dryer to a hallway closet, moved the water tank to another hallway closet along with electrical panel.
- We removed the old parquet floors and installed a new sub-floor and new hardwood floors.
- The master bath shower was too small for customer so we customized the shower by expanding the shower area, installed marble tiles throughout the bathroom, installed a steam unit, new fixtures and a custom shower glass surrounding & door.
- We updated the electrical throughout the unit installing new recessed lights, pendulum lights to kitchen, new dimmers, switches & outlets.
- New doors & cabinets were installed throughout the unit as well as marble back-splash in the kitchen.
