One of the best ways to increase the value of your home is with a bathroom renovation. We can update your fixtures and style, or even change the whole layout! We install everything: flooring, tubs and showers, toilets and sinks, vanities and counters, backsplashes, medicine cabinets, lighting, vented fans, grab bars, and bathroom hardware like towel bars. We can also custom-format your linen closet or other storage space! Request Consultation

Lead poisoning is a serious issue, and the rich history here in New England means a lot of old homes with dangerous deteriorating paint. We are one of only a handful of licensed abatement contractors located in the northern half of New Hampshire. We are passionate about keeping families safe and about historical preservation. We are also EPA-certified for lead-safe renovating. Request Consultation

Our Team
Owner: Aaron Stout
Committed to excellent work and memorable customer service.
Made of equal parts builder and problem-solver, I have always spent my time creating, as far back as childhood at the sandbox and the Lego table. From there it was helping with do-it-yourself projects at home and at church, and eventually serving professionals. I have been working with builders and landscapers for years, acquainting myself with many different facets of construction.
I was raised in Western New York (yes, the flatland), and had always loved to visit the mountains. In 2015 I moved with my family to the beautiful Lakes Region of New Hampshire, and fell in love immediately! I can’t imagine a better place to serve and build, among a tasteful and resilient population.
I am a family-first thinker, at home and on the job, and it is my mission to provide you with a functional space that feels like home!

Moving around a lot when I was younger, I found myself setting down roots in the Lakes Region of New Hampshire which I have decided to call home. Coming from a background in Theatre production as a carpenter and technical director, I have always had a love for creating and using my hands, no matter the medium.
I started in carpentry helping out my father at home and on job sites as a kid, and never lost the drive to work and build that those times instilled in me. Taking this to New York City, I started learning the finer points of the craft, working with designers, and a love of seeing a client’s dream realized.
While not a native to the area, I am excited to prove myself and my craftsmanship to the community, and to give back in any way I can.
