Here is another amazing home we finished and just brought to the market.
This property is located at 104 Columbus Avein Holyoke MA. We did a full gut renovation of this property, bringing it down to the studs. We rearranged the floorplan to give it a great open feel. We enlarged the kitchen and the first floor bath. We also finished the second floor into a master suite complete with it’s own full bath.
The major problem we had to deal with on this house was some structural issues caused by 4 layers of shingles on the roof. With all that weight on the roof it was crushing the house. So the roof was stripped and there’s only 1 layer on there now. We also had to build new foundation walls to give the house a solid structure to sit on. Our contractor jacked the house up, rebuilt the foundation, and resupported the band joist and floor joists. Now the house is as strong as an Ox!!!
Here are the pictures of the completed home; (you can see the before pictures HERE)

My spouse and I stumbled over here by a different web page and thought
I might check things out. I like what I see so i am just following you.
Look forward to looking over your web page again.
Matt,
The home looks great and I especially like the hardwood floors. What kind of hardwood floors do you buy? Where do you guys purchase the hardwood? Local supplier or a national company? Ex. Lowe’s, Lumber Liquidators.
Any recommendations on what type of floors to buy and which to stay away from?
Thanks,
Daniel Gaitan
Hi Daniel,
Most of the homes we buy already have hardwoods in them. In the northeast it seems that most of the houses built between the 1900’s and 1960’s all tend to have hardwoods, at least the ones we buy. So most of the time we are just refinishing what is already there.
We did install some Bamboo flooring in the house at 70 Glenwood St. Those came out nice. They were purchased from Lumber Liquidators. We also installed some new hardwoods in 209 Gifford St, those were done by our hardwood guy and I’m not sure where he gets them from.

Matt,
What is the name of the paint color you use for your kitchens? Also, where do you buy your kitchen cabinets?
Thanks, Tony
Hi Tony,
We use Sherwin Williams Softer Tan throughout the whole house, including the kitchen.
We have been getting our cabinets from a local supplier here in the Springfield area. Actually I think they may have a wharehouse in Hartford. I’m not sure of the name of the company as our contractor Jason is usually dealing with them but I can find that out for you.
