Renovation in Allentown, PA

Renovation In Allentown, PA: We loved renovating this beauty in Allentown, Pa. This neighborhood features unique homes with interesting architectural styles and this one was no different. We added some farmhouse touches to this classic colonial.

Exterior

For the exterior we freshened it up with paint, boxed out beams, and a beautiful farmhouse style front door.

Living and Dining Room

The living and dining rooms already had oak hardwood floors in decent shape but they needed to be refreshed so we refinished them and added a few coats of Poly to bring out their natural beauty.

Kitchen

The dated kitchen was just screaming to be redone. It had a layout that really cut off the space and we knew we could make it more functional. We opened it up and created a large center island for gathering, extended cabinetry to the ceiling and added much needed pantries. The carpet was stripped out and new hardwoods were incorporated throughout to help finish off this space.

Family Room

The family room was very dark so we brightened it up and continued the hardwoods into the space. The brick fireplace serves as the perfect focal point to center furniture around and relax.

Mudroom

Prior this room had been the laundry room but the previous owner had moved the laundry upstairs which left this space which really didn’t have a function. We converted it into this functional mudroom with Italian tiles and a large shiplap bench.

Bathrooms

The bathrooms already featured a rustic tile but had dated vanities. We replaced the vanities to match the tile and added new accessories to really make these rooms shine.

This whole house renovation in Allentown, PA was a lot of fun and we think turned out great!

Client Reviews

My husband and I asked ReStart Home Renovations to remodel the two bathrooms in our home as well as put in a new floor in our basement. The bathrooms were both very outdated and made with poor materials. We weren’t exactly sure what we wanted; we just figured anything would be an improvement. Scott told us that he commits himself to one remodel at a time so that he can give 100% of his time and attention to each project. He absolutely followed through with this, putting continuous long hours into the work. He paid attention to every detail. We were quite confident in his abilities as a contractor but what we didn’t realize is that he is a designer as well. We wanted a clean and modern design for our “his and hers” bathrooms. He guided us through our choices of materials and colors: the results are two stunningly beautiful bathrooms. We feel like we spend everyday in a luxury hotel or spa. Thank you Scott.

Scott & Jess have been amazing to work with! They are everything you’re looking for in finding a trustworthy contractor. They remodeled our bathroom after 3 other companies butchered the original job. Scott came in gutted the room & put it back together beautifully. They also renovated our garage into an in-law suite which came out better than I could have ever imagined. Their pricing is fair, work is both beautiful yet thorough they have excellent communication & are there for you throughout the entire process from start to finish. Thank you Scott & Jess.

ReStart Home Renovations transformed our underused formal living room, office, and half bathroom into a luxurious main floor master bedroom suite with huge walk in closet and incredible walk in shower and soaking tub. We were so impressed with Scott and his team from the beginning- with the integrity, craftsmanship, and communication every step of the way. It is rare these days to find someone that will stay with you as their sole project from beginning to end, that will show up when stated, keep a clean worksite, do things WELL, and stay on budget! When we first contacted Scott last year, we knew we wanted a main floor master suite, but was unsure as to room design, flow, finishes, or even dimensions. He came out to see the space, take measurements, and we discussed our dreams for the space. He took our thoughts and came back to us with two floor plans. His wife Jessica is a talented designer and created several mood boards from which to choose. They created an accurate 3D rendering that enabled us to see how our space would ultimately look. Our project included renovating the existing fireplace and creating a custom mantle and surround; heated tile floors in herringbone pattern; reworking plumbing and electrical; custom wood accent wall; painting all the existing and new trim and crown molding; new wood floors that match our existing; removing part of the staircase banister and trim to create wall for new entrance into master suite; building tile shower with bench, rain shower and dual shower heads; barn doors; double door entrance; sconces; vanity and medicine cabinets; and much much more. The whole process was relatively stress free for us– which is quite an accomplishment for a home renovation project, let alone one on this scale. We highly recommend ReStart Home Renovations and plan to use them again for any future projects. We have zero complaints or suggestions to how they could even improve their services– they were that wonderful. Thank you for our dream space, Scott and Jessica! It turned out more beautiful than we ever imagined.

Scott did a great job! He takes pride in his work, cleans up when finished and is extremely detail oriented. His workmanship exceeded our expectations on two full bathroom remodeling jobs. Trustworthy, honest, and we had no issues with him working in our home alone. You could pay less for inferior quality, but why take chances. If you want the job done right the first time give Scott at ReStart Home Renovations a call. You won’t be disappointed.
