"Well the guy was suppose to get back to me with a quote and basic design but never got in touch with me again. It also seemed like we talked more about financing (they do internal financing) then we did about the actual addition. Definitely was a turn off but I did not write them off until they never contacted me again.

Front view of the covered wrap around porch, with white porch railings and columns. The lattice work below the porch helps to give a backdrop for the shrubbery.

Exterior view of the in-progress attached garage addition build. As you can see, the necessary siding was removed from the existing home so we could attach the garage build.

Overall view of the newly constructed back deck, which leads to the now covered patio area, via the spiral staircase.

Front view of the log cabin entry room addition highlights the stunning front door with dual sidelights.

Back view shows how much the new build towers above the existing one-story homes in the neighborhood.
