Project Portfolio: Exterior Renovation at 472 Clamshell Ct, OBX
Location: 472 Clamshell Ct, Outer Banks, NC
Client: Residential Property Owner
Project Type: Full Exterior Renovation
Project Overview:
At OBX Cottage Renovations, we pride ourselves on transforming coastal homes into stunning, durable spaces designed to withstand the elements while preserving the charm of beachside living. Our recent project at 472 Clamshell Ct is a testament to this, where we undertook a comprehensive exterior renovation. This involved removing outdated materials, reinforcing structural elements, and installing high-quality, long-lasting upgrades that reflect both beauty and durability.
Scope of Work:
1. Vinyl Siding Removal:
– Before: The property’s exterior was clad in standard vinyl siding, which had worn over time due to the coastal climate, leading to fading and reduced curb appeal.
– Process: Our team carefully removed all existing vinyl siding, preparing the surface for the installation of a more durable and aesthetically pleasing alternative.
2. Trim Replacement:
– Before: Existing corner, window/door trims, soffits, and fascia were all outdated and no longer providing the protection or clean lines required for a modern exterior.
– Process: We meticulously removed these old elements, replacing them with custom-cut PVC trims. PVC is a superior material for coastal homes as it is resistant to rot, insects, and the intense moisture conditions common to the OBX region.
– Outcome: The new trims provide crisp, clean edges around all architectural features, adding definition and increasing the overall weather resistance of the home.
3. Cedar Shake Siding Installation:
– Material: We installed white cedar shake siding, a premium choice for its natural beauty and ability to blend into the OBX coastal environment.
– Process: Each shake was installed with precision to create a uniform, rustic look that highlights the home’s beachside charm while providing excellent durability.
– Outcome: The white cedar shakes not only enhanced the aesthetic but also contributed to improved insulation and protection against the elements. Over time, these shakes will weather beautifully, creating a timeless look that ages gracefully.
4. Deck Renovation:
– Deck Removal: The existing deck showed signs of wear, with deteriorating joists, decking, and railings that no longer met the homeowner’s needs for safety or style.
– Process: We completely removed the old deck joists, decking, and railings. In their place, we installed premium treated deck joists, ensuring a stable foundation that will last for years.
– Decking and Railings: The new deck was constructed using high-quality materials specifically chosen for their resistance to moisture and wear. The railings were upgraded to complement the overall look while offering enhanced safety.
– Outcome: The new deck is not only a safe and functional outdoor space but also a beautiful extension of the home that invites relaxation and social gatherings in a fresh, modern setting.
Key Benefits of the Renovation:
– Improved Durability: With the use of PVC trims and cedar shake siding, this property is now better equipped to handle the unique challenges of the OBX coastal climate.
– Enhanced Curb Appeal: The transformation resulted in a fresh, modern look, with clean lines and natural materials that blend harmoniously with the surrounding environment.
– Long-Term Investment: By using premium materials and ensuring top-tier craftsmanship, this renovation extends the life and value of the property, offering years of worry-free maintenance.
Client Feedback:
The homeowner at 472 Clamshell Ct was thrilled with the results, noting that the property feels like a brand-new home. They were particularly pleased with the craftsmanship, attention to detail, and the selection of high-quality materials that will protect their investment for years to come.
