Modern Doors and Shower Install

I want to take a moment today to show off some doors we’ve installed in a home we are performing a much larger remodel project in with Nate from Grant DesignYard. This barn door not only looks slick, it also opens up possibilities in tight spaces. I personally like the opaque glass in the door panels.

We’ve also added some smart looking glass doors in the double shower/ tub I showed you a couple of weeks ago, really making this a modern and sophisticated space.

A simple slider?

We replaced a sliding glass door as part of a large scale remodel. It’s easy to take for granted what goes into remodeling projects.

For instance: replacing a slider sounds simple enough, but there are many steps. First, you removed the siding. In this case, we came across something a contractor finds on many sites - a surprise. When we pulled back the siding, we discovered two more layers 😂. We were prepared and took care of it.

Then we pulled the siding off and moved the framing and wiring, cut in two holes, got the windows installed with new headers for the windows to carry the weight of the studs we’d removed. We taped the windows with flashing tape to seal them in as an extra layer of protection from water penetration, reinstalled the sliding and we trimmed out the patio door.

That’s a lot of steps and as simple as the job sounds, a lot goes into it. That’s why you want to have professionals with experience on your job.

I have been in business for 20 years and work with the best professional contractors in the greater Lansing area. If you’re considering a remodeling project, hire somebody who knows what to do every step of the way. Message me on Facebook, call (517) 242-4353 or email zischkebulders@gmail.com
