Mod House Canning, NS – Painted and Landscaped

Eco-Friendly, Home Decor & Design, Mod HomeBy Deborah NicholsonJuly 31, 20171 Comment

It’s been 1.5 years since we moved into our modern modular home and 1.5 years since I last posted under the title Building Small on North Avenue.    It’s been 1.5 years of landscaping our place and mostly working on design projects for my clients.  If any one is still following and still curious, here…

A snow day here in the Valley and an opportunity to briefly document the past six weeks that have taken us from moving in, to finishing touches, to holiday entertaining, to fixing glitches, and onward to settling in with big satisfied grins. As it turned out, we had five days between the issue of our…

Eco-Friendly, Home Decor & Design, Mod HomeBy Deborah NicholsonNovember 28, 2015

We’ve seen big action this week.  Most of what we squeaked about has been attended to or is making good progress.  We’ll be doing a walk through with Matthew, our Project Manager on Monday and we’re waiting on Nova Scotia Power’s final OK and then our Occupancy Permit to follow immediately after. Two weeks?  Maybe……

Squeak!  Squeak!  They say the squeaky mouse gets the cheese, so we squeaked (squawked really).  We finally have water and power.  Waiting for a final inspection from NS Power and then our Occupancy Permit.  Hoping to be in before family arrives on the 13th.  If not, we’ll have little elves to help with the unpacking.…

I’ve always had a healthy respect for trades people – the folks who create something from nothing, find solutions, and make things work.  I’ve also prided myself on what I thought was a healthy sense of empathy towards home owners who are relying on trades people to renovate and/or build their homes. I’ve listened to…

Matthew Wood, our Project Manager from Kent Homes is a real trooper.  He threw out his back just as he arrived on site for our house crane lift.  He managed to smile brightly for this photo, then spent the next week flat on his back while he kept this (and I suspect, other) projects running…

Work in and around our newly landed home, has begun in earnest and we see progress at every visit.  If it were possible, we would be there ALL the time.  But, of course, we would be in the way and we wouldn’t get much of anything else done.  So, instead, we stop in a couple…

Our home is on our lot.  The crane operators and trucking crew lifted it onto it’s Postechs on Thursday and….  it’s exactly what we envisioned.  Big sigh of relief and a big sigh of satisfaction! With a 16 foot wide load, traffic needed to move to the shoulder all along the route from Bouctouche, New…

Eco-Friendly, Home Decor & Design, Mod Home, My Favourite ThingsBy Deborah NicholsonNovember 1, 20151 Comment

The weather gods frowned on us last week.  After days of sunny dry weather, the one day of down-pours on Thursday set us back a few days. The trucking crew, followed by Laura Maillett and Matthew Wood of Kent Homes, slowly made their way from Bouctouche, New Brunswick – a 3.5 hour drive lengthened 6.5…
