Remodeling in Nevada City.

Nevada City is one of California's best-preserved Victorian towns - steep, wooded, and fiercely protective of its 19th-century character. Homeowners here walk a careful line: keep the period exterior and charm, but bring kitchens, bathrooms, and systems fully up to modern standards. Steep lots also drive steady demand for retaining walls, stairs, and hardscape.

Working in Nevada City

Many Nevada City homes are historic, so updates have to respect period detail - crown molding and trim, sympathetic kitchen and bath layouts, and finishes that read right in an older home. The terrain is steep and forested: retaining walls, stepping-stone paths, and snow-rated roofing are standard parts of foothill projects here.
