She told us she wanted to have her backsplash tile feel like the Gulf waters outside her home. I think we did it! Amazing kitchen renovation Steve and I and team completed earlier this year.

The structure of our Gulf Breeze rental property put up a fight! When we began removing the old siding to reveal the sheathing, we found sheathing that was covered in dry rot. While it was tempting to turn a blind eye and gloss over these items (it’s a rental, after all), we simply couldn’t do it.⁠
⁠
Call us old fashioned, but Steve and I will never miss an opportunity to improve a house structurally, so we decided to slow down and do this house well. Doing so will benefit the house itself and whoever lives there in the long run. Plus, paying it forward is just good manners, right? ⁠
⁠
We will always, always spend a little extra time and money to do a job well the first time. In this case, we went with a house wrap to replace the sheathing and reinstalled the windows to create a tight, weatherproof seal.⁠

KITCHEN RENOVATION STEP #5: CONSTRUCTION⁠
Once your materials are on site, then we are ready for construction. For a full renovation, our standard practice is to set the project start date around the arrival date of the cabinets. Then, we can plan demo, mechanical installations, and other vital events around the cabinetry. ⁠
⁠
If it’s a partial renovation, our timeline might be planned around the painter's schedule or the flooring installation — whichever trade has the most significant role and will need the most time. ⁠
⁠
Although we can’t control the wait time for professionals, we orchestrate the project so that materials delivery and the construction start date align as closely as possible. Our goal is to have a consistent workflow on the job site, so that the actual time we are in your home and disrupting everyday life is at a minimum. ⁠

If you’re looking for a new pet to bring home, we highly, highly encourage you to consider adoption. In addition to the typical influx of pets at shelters, our area also includes a military community, which means that families have to relocate on short notice and perfectly loving pets often get left behind.⁠
⁠
This is where the Santa Rosa County Animal Services comes in. We found this shelter when visiting the building permit office in Milton (we’re there a lot!), which is just a block or two away. Steve and I are both passionate about animals, and we love that this no-kill shelter works hard to place each animal in their forever home. ⁠
⁠
How You Can Help: ⁠
- If you have the means, consider adopting a dog, puppy, cat, or kitten. (We have two rescue dogs, Oakley and Millie, and they are the sweetest, most loving companions!)⁠
- Donate cans or bags of food, especially wet food for kittens.⁠
- Donate old blankets that pets could use as bedding.⁠
- Donate toys that will bring joy to a dog or cat.⁠
