Cypress Remodel/Addition by Mark Primack

09/2011 - Aptos, CA

We are half-way through an exciting remodel and addition in Aptos, designed by local architect, Mark Primack. The homeowners, Bill and Susie, have been great partners in this project - Bill, in the unofficial role as Project Manager, and Susie, who has been out sourcing fixtures, finishes, etc. They have extensive remodel experience and are just a great couple to work with!

The project started with a handsome suburban home, and with the combined vision of both Bill and Susie, and Mark Primack, came up with a neo-commercial/residential hybrid design, utilizing metal, stucco, and HardiPanel cementitious siding.

Demo of the existing front of the house was extensive and time consuming, but soon we were laying out walls and pouring the foundation.














Next, came the floor framing and subfloor.

And presently, walls and roof are taking shape!

Hat's off to our fine crew for doing a great job, to Bill and Susie for their excellent support, to Daryl Woods at Mark Primack's office, to John at Buchanan Engineering, Whitlow Concrete, Charles at Green Lantern Electric, Hal at Stiles Plumbing,  and Eugene at Mercury Metals.
Looking forward to seeing the finished product on this one!
