The Brief

What the client needed.

The family had raised three kids in the house. The youngest had just left for university. They were downsizing to a condo in Nun's Island, and the bungalow needed to go from "lived-in by five people" to "ready for the next family" in under three weeks.

What We Did

The work, in sequence.

Three cleaning days: kitchen and two baths in detail, all floors, all windows, inside the kitchen cupboards. A painter for two days: every wall in the main living area and the three bedrooms got a fresh coat of the same off-white. A small kitchen refresh: replaced the cabinet hardware, swapped the dated faucet, and re-grouted the tile backsplash. New photos shot on the third morning.
