The house on Manzanita Avenue was a very fun project. One of our jobs was to match the stone work on the garage, which happens to be the same masonry as The Stone House in Santa Rosa. Our skilled masons developed the site walls and the work was meticulous and precise. The outdoor kitchen with its dental work, stone capped walls and amazing framing creates an excellent space for entertaining. We installed bead board ceilings, and all the framing was wrapped in poplar, sanded smooth and painted with precision. The stone walls and staircase take you to a 75′ Bocce Ball court and welcoming outdoor fireplace. The front porch was repaired and recreated to match the existing one. The work didn’t stop on the exterior. This home was remodeled in all but two rooms. The walls were covered with wainscoting and chair rails. The home interior was finished with new lighting, casings and new paint throughout.
It was truly a delight to create this hardscape and landscape for this client.

The Vista Grande project was a gem of a project. The Architecture and design, coupled with nature, natural light and vast views of Shiloh Park were extraordinary. The entry says welcome with its large posts, beams and tile, making both the interior and exterior exquisite. Also on the exterior were Ipe decks and stainless steel post and cable rail. This allowed the views of the surrounding wilderness to flow through without obstruction. The turret construction enhanced the elegance of the indoor entertaining area.

When Carrington Construction started this project the job was simply to remove and replace a large section of concrete walkway due to what appeared to be rot. After a short time it was discovered to be a massive termite infestation. Nearly every part of this structure was torn apart and rebuilt. Unfortunately the building owner neglected a termite report in 1972 and the result left the building needing a lot of structural repair. As the building was repaired there were also many upgrades to the structure.

Charles Historical Renovation
This historical building renovation was a very special project. This apartment building was originally built in 1886. Once a brothel, this structure has seen Santa Rosa grow up around it. When Carrington Construction first began the project, we found the historical apartments were in shambles. The foundation had given way allowing the apartment to settle in the mud. After many years of neglect and dry rot accumulation Carrington Construction was hired to bring her back to its former glory. We elevated the structure and removed the old foundation. We then replaced the foundation and re leveled the building. There was also a full rewire, re plumb and replacement of the mechanical system. The roof had major fire damage from a past fire which we repaired and the decks surrounding the building were replaced.

Along with the improvements mentioned above there was a complete renovation to the exterior of the building. All trims, siding, and exterior work were directed by the historical society during the renovation, and with their guidance and the exterior came back to life. Work on the interior included a full gut; new drywall, paint, trim, hardwood flooring and new appliances in each apartment.
