Affordable Bathroom & Kitchen Refurbishing & Remodeling

January 11, 2011

Your bathroom and kitchen are the most highly trafficked areas of your home, but any realtor will tell you, they’re  the first places potential buyers look. Everyone loves a sparkling kitchen and bathroom. If you’re considering selling your home, or, if like many homeowners, you want to fix up your home and enjoy it until economy picks up, consider affordable refurbishing or remodeling.

One way to save money on remodeling is to invest in porcelain refinishing for counter tops, tile walls, appliances, showers, bathtubs, and sinks. Refinishing these surfaces means that you won’t have to rip out and replace them. Instead, they’ll have a beautiful, new look that could last for years to come.

And porcelain refinishing is not limited to white. Not at all! You can choose virtually any color, or you can opt for a stone look finish with Multi-Spec.

I’m Chris Duty, and I’ve been in the refinishing business (first as an apprentice, then in my own company, Striking Image) for nearly two decades. In addition, I offer other services, like removal or construction of walls, tiling, flooring, texture and paint, plumbing, and more. What I can’t do, I have reputable crews to handle. My general contracting and bathroom remodeling clients are always pleased with the results – and the price.

If your bathroom or kitchen could use some work, call me, Chris, at 940-395-1406, or email strikingimage@gmail.com for a free estimate. I serve clients in Southlake, Grapevine, Roanoke, Lewisville, Colleyville, Keller, and surrounding communities, and references are available.

Mildewed Wall Reconstruction: Grapevine, Tx

May 20, 2010

In addition to refinishing, Chris does light remodeling. In this old home, he ripped out mildewed sheetrock and insulation, then replaced the sheetrock, taped and bedded the seams, textured, and finished up with a fresh few coats of paint. Chris and his crew can repair, add, or remove walls that are not load bearing. They also offer flooring. In this particular room, new carpet was installed following the remodel. The adjacent bathroom received a new tub, new tile, and new texture and paint, as well.

Home Improvement Picks Up

May 5, 2010

In a Wall Street Journal article published online this week, writer MP McQueen explains why home improvement is so popular right now. He says that many folks aren’t upgrading and updating their homes to sell them, but rather to stay in them. It seems a lot of people have decided that home is where their heart and investment are, so they’re sprucing up for the long haul. Read the full article here.

If you have your mind on home improvement projects, call Chris of Striking Image. He’ll provide a free estimate on the work you need done. In addition to porcelain refinishing, Chris and his crew offer light remodeling. Whether you want to replace your carpet with hardwoods, open up your kitchen to the family room by removing a wall, or transform your kitchen with new cabinets and counter tops, Chris can help.

“But I’m a do-it-yourself-er,” you say? No problem. Chris often works with homeowners who can do part of a large project themselves, meaning Chris’ team can do the hard part, then let you finish up. This kind of teamwork can be very rewarding for a homeowner! (And if you never get around to painting that newly remodeled bathroom, just call Chris again!)

Striking Image is run from Roanoke, Texas, and provides on-site home improvement for residents of Southlake, Roanoke, Trophy Club, Keller, Justin, Hurst-Euless-Bedford, Colleyville, and surrounding areas. Call 940-395-1406 to discuss your home improvement project!

Save Money on Home Repairs

May 1, 2010

You try to do it yourself whenever humanly possible. But sometimes a professional can SAVE you money, time, and hassle. For instance, if you do it yourself – wrong – the first time, whatever the project, you have to re-do it. All that money spent at Home Depot, and all those precious weekend hours can never be reclaimed. You would have been better off to hire a professional.

When it comes to bathroom and kitchen repair, light remodeling, and tile work, your very best bet is to rely on the affordable pricing and expert knowledge of Chris and his crews. Striking Image originated as a porcelain refinishing company, but now we offer much more:

  • Bathtub, shower, and sink repair/refinishing / replacing
  • Counter top repair / refinishing / replacing
  • Tile and flooring
  • Plumbing
  • Carpentry & remodels

There’s no cost for a bid, so give Chris a call and schedule an appointment. He’ll come out, look at your project, recommend a plan, and provide you with a bid. The rest is up to you! Would you rather be lying by the pool next weekend or knee-deep in a do it yourself bathroom remodel? Give Chris a call today if you live in Roanoke, Grapevine, Southlake, Keller, or the surrounding North Texas area, at 940-395-1406.
