Every Home Needs A Cozy Fireplace with built in Entertainment System

AFTER
What this home was missing was a cozy fireplace with a place to put the "Big Screen". Rave Contracting Services was asked to take a boring flat wall and turn it into a cozy corner. We at Rave can bring in the right peaple to take care of all your electrical, Gas, and Propane needs. If you need it done right then let Rave do it with Licensed Qualified peaple so you too can relax in comfort.

Exterior Siding and finishes

This 30' x 24' Cottage was sided in January 2010. The owner had it covered with the required Typar and then Rave Contracting Services was asked to then strap the exterior with 1"x3" spruce strapping and then the cottage was finished with Maybec siding. The main colour is Taupe and accented with Polar white trim.

Basement Renovation

Remodelling or finishing the basement is the perfect way to increase the living area of your home. Finished basements are ideal for recreation rooms, wet bars and additional bedrooms if planned properly. Rave Contracting specializes in basement renovations by focusing on the things that make a difference like designing to maximize space, improving basement waterproofing and insulation (thermal and sound), selecting the right windows and enabling natural lighting.

Here is a project we completed that created a warm, lighted area to hang out and watch tv. Rave installed a fireplace in the rec room to provide that cozy feeling.

Here are some after & before pics of another recent renovation.

Bathrooms

Renovation projects often include a new bathroom. Here are two that we recently finished.

This was a simple vanity room as part of a basement renovation.

Some clients like to think of their bathroom as an oasis, a place to rejuvenate every day. This project included a steam shower stall with water proof speakers.

Special Purpose Rooms

Many client have a specific use they have in mind for a room or area of the house. Here are some examples.


This client wanted a fitness room with a cork floor for added warmth.

Car Port/Garage (Updated Project January 2011)

It’s not too difficult to design a simple garage that can be attached to a house without looking overly dominant. But it can be a challenge to create living space above the garage. Because of the combined wall heights of the garage and a full-size space above it, the roofline may need to be higher than that of the house.

A new garage can be more than a handy addition to your house - it can also be a visual improvement. Some of the nicest garages don’t look like garages. Instead, they look like part of the house itself.

Here is a car port we constructed for a client in which we created a house-like facade.
