Wood look tile for coastal farmhouse themed home
Comments (5)We have Norway Narvik Bronze in our new build and love it! https://interceramicusa.com/products/detail/norway/252115 We choose wood look tile because of our large dogs and children. We've been here 2+ months. Plenty of spills, one tummy virus, and drool spots - all cleaned up perfectly. It's throughout the house and bathrooms with the bedrooms and office carpeted....See MoreDurable Siding/Cladding Advice for Mid-Atlantic Coastal Home on Budget
Comments (22)I'm in the NE. We found one installer through the Everlast website (a larger firm that specializes in siding and roofing); however, as with most projects (at least at our house), it's not straightforward and we needed the gutters taken down (and re-installed) and fascia replaced, etc. and this big firm was not willing to do those details. So I found a local, experienced GC who has done similar work (it installs similar to vinyl) who was willing to do it (as well as the other work needed) and so far, so good. He did contact and work with the Everlast rep. We initiated about a year ago and our job just came up in his list about 2 weeks ago to start. So in that time, he said he's heard of more interest in Everlast. I don't know what's considered "budget" or not; I do know we were having trouble finding painters willing to deal with all the issues our old siding was having (and our last paint job was $$$ IMHO), and this will alleviate our having to do a painting rodeo every 8 years (again, just what our house was needing). Will the woodpeckers still peck holes in it? dunno. I do know it's not going to blister, peel, warp or crack. Knock on wood. Everlast does have a board and batten profile; the GC has commented he likes that it is not bendy at all (like vinyl) and each plank/board interlocks and there is no flex, cannot pull it away from the wall at all. So not sure if that's helpful for winds, etc....See MoreBlend a unique side table in a coastal home
Comments (6)Is that actual wood on top or some type of molded faux wood? That will make a difference as to what can be done. You could whitewash it. I have done this with poster paints so that if I decided later to return the item to its original state I can just wash off the water-based paint. You could apply white wax to the item. This is available through some chalk paint manufacturers....See MoreCoastal wood look for 1951 house room addition?
Comments (3)The addition should be designed as if it were built at the same time as the original. It needs to look like you have one home. It should not be a beach shack airlifted in from Panama and grafted on as a third arm. Use the same floors in the addition as in the original home. And the same siding, windows, and roof....See Morergal813
