The Siami Project: Aggressive: 2012

Matt's New House

The Story: The Siami's were in town and Matt and his mom were driving around Wheaton looking at houses. As they were out on their hunt, a woman pulled over her car and walked up to Matt's window asking if they were looking to buy a house. When Matt responded yes, she asked if he wanted to come look at a place that they had just moved her in-laws out of. Turns out this 3 bedroom/2.5 bathroom house was just what he was looking for. So with no realtor involved and 2 months later, Matt is officially a homeowner. Aggressive? or Insane?

When the Dust Settles...

I know I am so bad at updating this site...so I decided I would at least post the pictures of the newly renovated bathroom! It looks a lot newer and bigger (even though it's still tiny). We made a few changes to make the space look bigger such as:

1) Installing a pedestal sink

2) Using a lot of white

3) Knocking out the wall around the shower

4) Lowering the floor of the shower

5) Installing a sliding frameless glass door for the shower

We went through Home Depot for this project and they use a company called Absolute Construction. We were not very happy with their service and would not recommend that anyone do work through them. I'll let Matt go into the details of why we were not happy with them in a later post.

Enjoy the before and after pics!
