If you follow Maverick, you know we love to share our amazing home remodels to help you feel inspired for your very own home remodeling projects. Well, we’re back with a current home remodeling project in progress that you will love!
This home remodeling project in Littleton, Colorado, consists of a full kitchen remodel, a family room remodel, a brand new powder room, a new large pantry, and a dream mudroom with two entrances, one from the garage and the other from the front door.
The original architectural design of the house is unique, to say the least. Not only are there octagon-shaped rooms in the kitchen and family room, but there are also angles in the walls that connect to the ceiling, which drastically shortened the height of the room. Our original plan was to open up the kitchen area as much as possible by removing a wall and allowing for 10-foot high ceilings creating a clear view of the family room.
With an established goal of raising the kitchen ceilings, the demo quickly began. Well, you can imagine our surprise when we discovered a scissor truss ceiling above the kitchen!
What Makes The Perfect Holiday Kitchen
Seasons Greetings! Celebrations are upon us - time to enjoy the holidays surrounded by family, friends, gifts, food, libations, and more. The key to staying stress-free is by maximizing and prepping space ahead of time! And it starts in the kitchen.
The kitchen is the heart of the home, especially at Christmas time. It provides much more than sustenance, it's a space to gather for family fun and make emotional connections. Holiday guests usually equate to extra mouths to feed and larger meals (which means larger messes.)
To help you get ready, here’s a list of our best tips to get your kitchen ho-ho-holiday-ready. Check it once, check it twice…

Creating The Ultimate Home Office
In today’s world, whether your office remains closed post-COVID, your children are in hybrid school, or you simply need a quiet area to get work done, having a workspace at home is almost a necessity. Rather than setting up a temporary spot at the dining table or attempting to work on the couch, consider breathing new life into your home with a dedicated home office.
Having a remote setup has many benefits, including increased productivity, savings on commute time and expenses, freedom to create your ideal space, and flexibility. Here are tips for designing an office at home.

So, grab a cup of coffee, snuggle up in your favorite comfy chair and dive into planning mode!
4 Fabulous Perks to Remodeling Your Fireplace
You are racing through the sky at the speed of light, your 9 reindeer plow through the bitter cold air. You begin your descent to a home miles below because someone there made the nice list. Swinging your bundle of toys on your shoulder, you approach the fireplace. The fireplace has definitely seen better days. It’s got some cracks, it’s got some dust, and it’s pretty dated. The last time you saw a mantle with peach bricks and white wood, you gagged. It’s not that you’re a snob; you just see every fireplace in the world, so you have a refined palette. You pull your least requested toy; the Harry Potter Invisibility Cloak will do for these people. And it’s not that you’re petty. It’s that whoever owns this home had the audacity to make you crawl through that musty fireplace, and now your famous red suit has to go to the cleaners. This is the Christmas they deserve. You fly far, far away back to the North Pole, questioning if they deserve a nice list after that ghastly chimney... You may need to reevaluate your criteria.

Maverick Behind The Scenes
Have you ever wondered what goes on behind the scenes of a home remodel? Us too!
Just kidding! We know a thing or two about home remodeling. And when you think that BTS is a film-only thing, think again! A lot goes on behind the scenes of a home remodel and you’d be surprised at how organization, communication and dedication play an incredible role in the success of a home remodeling project. It’s kind of like a movie score.

Realistic Construction Timelines | 2021 Edition
It goes without saying, people were VERY ready to kick off 2021! The feeling of a New Year brings about many new opportunities including a reset on the previous year. The ability to make New Year’s Resolutions, or what we like to call, New Year’s Commitments is refreshing. But as we entered 2021, we started feeling the impact of the previous year’s experiences.
1 Sheep 2 Sheep...
H2-OHH YEAH
March 22nd, 2021 officially marks the United Nations World Water Day. This year the focus is on the value of water, specifically what water means to each of us as humans that inhabit this beautiful planet of ours. So what a better way to not only talk about how important water is in the home, but how incredibly fortunate we are to live in this beautiful state. Colorado happens to be a headwater state and the origin of four major river basins, which supply water to seventeen downstream states and two countries. Now that’s worth recognizing!
February... A Month of Libations!
Renew The Home, Love The Home
February is known as the month of LOVE, which means we celebrate the rooms people tend to love the most throughout their home. When you think of what people love, you probably think of rooms like the living room or the master bathroom. But sometimes what people love most are the areas of their home that provide the best function. Areas like a laundry room, a mud room, a basement or even a closet. That’s right, people really love a closet! Well, a good closet.
