Inadequate kitchen counter space is one of the top problems that homeowners hope to correct with kitchen remodels.

This is a popular solution for homes that face the street, as the bottom half can be closed, while the upper section remains open, giving you the right amount of light and privacy. Shutters can also be fitted on the interior of the windows, which can transform the ambience of any room. On the other hand, exterior mounted shutters are preferred for light control, air flow, and security.

Many older properties were designed before the automobile became popular, and providing there is sufficient space, a garage or carport is a valuable addition to any home. Some people prefer to construct a bricks and mortar garage that is in keeping with the character of the house, yet with modern materials, one can achieve this using much lighter and stronger composites, while taking nothing away from the original architecture.
