Before and After Project Spotlight

Addition & New Deck to Expand Living and Entertainment Space

This remodel in Rockville, Maryland was a much needed addition to this modest home. The client’s vision was to expand the living space to be able to have a formal dining space and have a functional family room to display his art work.


The vision was realized by removing the old deck and sunken brick patio. An addition off the back living room was added to house the new family room. Allowing the old living room to become the new dining room. Large Pella 12' four panel sliding glass door along with two Velux skylights brought in much needed light that was going to be lost by the addition. New hardwood flooring was toothed in and then all refinished to match. New mini-split HVAC was added for additional climate control of the room.


A new deck was then added behind the new addition. Made of PVC Decking and composite railing to reduce maintenance and extend the life of the deck.
