Thank you to Mango, and to our lovely and inspiring customers! #elm #granite #grateful #ilovethiscatandimadogperson #gravellewoodworking #lovewhatyoudo

Custom home building and renovating is a very competitive field. We often find ourselves bidding on projects with other highly qualified professionals and this certainly drives us to sharpen budgets and keep our standards high. However, customers are looking for what differentiates us from the others. I impulsively snapped a photo yesterday that I think helps to answer this. I often tell our homeowners that my father is happy to get his boots dirty but I’m not sure they entirely believe me. [ 207 more words ] http://thomascochrenhomes.com/what-makes-us-different/
This is my favourite customer feedback to date! If only we could all be so decisive
White trim and doors are fresh, current and easy to coordinate with any style or palette. It has become an almost forgone conclusion in the selection process. However, we are currently working on a project where the homeowners had previously installed new wood windows and wanted to carry the natural wood through the top-to-bottom renovation of their home. We selected mahogany as the right wood species for the job which is a very strong statement. [ 44 more words. ] http://thomascochrenhomes.com/finding-a-fresh-spin-on-wood/
Summer is a great time to tackle home improvements. Here's 5 DIY projects that can really add value to your home. http://adamsmovingservice.com/top-five-summer-home-improve/
I previouly posted a sample of the reclaimed Elm barn boards that we are using for the main floor material on a custom home. The wood has been installed and it is even better than anticipated. Here are some photos just before staining. At this stage, I am always tempted to just leave the colour natural! Luckily the customers stay more clear-minded. What do you think?

Spring is finally warming up and we usually see a corresponding influx of motivation in our customers to build, renovate or update their homes.

This is a gorgeous custom sample of oiled reclaimed Elm by J.L. Vivash Custom Wood Floors that we will be using for an upcoming project. It is perfect comfortable finish for a busy family with pets it will only get better with age! The elm will be carried through the stairwell. Here is an inspiration photo with horizontal paneling. I can’t wait to post the results!
I will often ask a customer to let me know their favourite colours to live with. Sometimes I regret this question if it veers away from my imagined palette but it can be a wonderful way to customize interiors and exteriors to the homeowner’s taste. There are many of us, myself included, who can be swayed to any colour with a beautiful pattern or texture. [ 42 more words. ] http://thomascochrenhomes.com/colours/
Thomas Cochren Homes was honoured to receive an Award of Distinction from the Hamilton-Halton Home Builders Association for Best Renovation Over $350,000 on April 28th. We are very proud of the work accomplished on this project and could not have achieved the level of quality and craftsmanship that set us apart without our team of employees, tradespeople and suppliers. They are experts in their fields, they take care and ownership in each job, problem-solve and work together. [ 137 more words. ] http://thomascochrenhomes.com/?p=15612
Congratulations to our amazing team who worked to bring home the Award of Distinction for Best Renovation!
Rammed earth foundations are beautiful, strong and environmentally sustainable. It is an ancient building technique that has been revived with modern construction methods. The great news? This method has also been adapted for cooler climates by inserting insulating panels so it is now a viable option in Canada and picking up steam in the green building community. Here are some examples by a Huntsville area builder: http://www.muskokasustainablebuilders.ca/Welcome.html... http://www.yellowtrace.com.au/luigi-rosselli-the-great-wal/
