Fire and floods are devastating to a house, but the damage caused by not having the right team to help you reclaim the value of your property after a fire or water damage is irreplaceable.  Mistakes in evaluating the value of every detail from the type and grade of your burned flooring to the quality of paint will lead to a smaller recovery from your insurance company and a loss in value to your primary investment, your home.

At Home Front, we don’t try to sell you a pre-made line of products, we design to your lifestyle.  We are experts in crafting your new cabinetry to integrate into your lifestyle, not just the four walls of your house.  Whether its kitchen cabinetry, dining room elements, hardware, stairways, moldings, wainscoting, veneer work or hanging doors, we offer a variety of solutions.

We are experienced artists and artisans, true experts in the art of painting. We can recreate everything from historic paint finishes to faux marble, faux bois, decorative finishes and murals.  We are also experts in staining and finishing.  We custom mix our own stains, tinted varnishes, shellacs and traditional oil paints in the old manner.

When you hire Home Front to do your foundation and seismic retrofitting work, you are hiring a company that has the knowledge and experience to understand the unique needs of existing structures, not just new construction.  It is not just a question of bolting, leveling or pouring a new footing, but how that work integrates and affects the rest of the structure.  Introducing new building materials can cause settling and damage in ways that wouldn’t occur with a brand new structure.

Sustainable interior redesign done right, whether hand-in-hand with a larger home remodel or as an individual project, requires extraordinary creativity. It not only demands the ability to re-envision a space but also the imagination to repurpose your home’s existing design elements and materials, rather than replacing them.

Home Front is dedicated to the craft of stucco and plaster.  Our staff can recreate a full range of stucco and plaster techniques from the historic sand finishes and scored plaster of the Craftsman period to the cold plaster and decorative moldings of the 1920’s as well as the smooth trowel Santa Barbara finishes popular today.
