The devil is in the details, and it's those fine details that make all the difference when it comes to quality renovations and home restoration. When you're a home owner, you have a vision of what your property should look like, but you still want to make sure that vision is also practical and functional. Beauty is one thing, but so is ensuring the space is structurally sound, yet without compromising its unique character and moldings.

No one pays more attention to these details than the owners of Textured Home. These innovative contractors have brought form, function and style to many of our region's homes, both older and more modern. Textured Home specializes in turnkey design-build projects including additions, kitchen and bath renovations, exterior and interior restorations and quality, new-build construction that looks like it's from an earlier time. The principals distinguish themselves by integrating traditional builder and trade services with a strong design sense and a savvy knowledge of the real estate market to ensue that your investment dollars are well spent.

Few renovations can make as much of an impact as kitchen and bath upgrades. Here Textured Home provides turnkey design, build and installation, creating custom cabinetry that can match or compliment original door and window moldings. For kitchen counter and sink-top fabrications, they personally select each stone slab used from a variety of natural elements, to better blend-in with the rehab or restoration. A brand new Textured Home kitchen or bath still feels like it belongs within your home.

One of the most challenging aspects of home improvement is successfully melding the integrity of older homes with modern, functional and efficient fixtures and amenities. For instance, Textured Home installs special small-duct air-conditioning and heating systems (HVAC) that limit damage to existing plaster and lathe walls. They also retrofit 'audiophile' quality in-wall stereo systems and high-tech 'smart house' installations. You can get 21st century functionality within earlier, higher-quality building construction.

Whether you're in one of Montclair's marvelous mansions, new construction looking for character, or a tired, turn-of-the-century gem -- a renovation or upgrade by Textured Home will add value and style. If you're planning on selling, it's a way to further appreciate your home's resale, but if your there for the long haul -- they'll help you fall in love with your house all over again.
