BURNS PARK
What we see in these homes
Families choose the neighborhood anyway, for the trees, the school and the walk to campus. The work we do here is almost always the same question in different forms: how do you get a modern kitchen, a mudroom, a second bath or a primary suite into a house that was never drawn for them, and still have it look like it belongs on the block?
Kitchens walled off from the dining room. Rear entries that dump straight into the kitchen with nowhere to put a coat. Attics with the height for a suite but no stair to reach it. Detached garages that don't line up with the driveway. Beautiful trim, plaster and stair railings worth keeping, and knob-and-tube behind the walls that isn't.
OUR APPROACH
How Forward approaches a Burns Park remodel
Design first, demolition later. Our architectural designers and interior designers draw the whole house, even when the project is one room, so the kitchen opening lands where the structure wants it and the new trim matches the old. One team carries the project from the first sketch through the final walkthrough.

QUESTIONS
Questions we hear most
Often, yes. We contain the work area, manage the dust, and keep the spaces you use every day working. For larger projects, Forward clients have access to our furnished rental homes.
Can we live in our home during construction?
How long will our project take?
It depends on scope, and the honest answer is that a finish refresh and a whole-home project are not in the same range. What we can promise is that you will have a phase-by-phase schedule before demolition starts, and you will know where you are in it every week.
How do you keep projects on schedule?
Selections are finalized and materials ordered before demolition begins. Most mid-project stalls are a crew standing around waiting on something nobody ordered, and the way to avoid that is to have decided earlier.
Who will be in our home during construction?
A project manager and our own carpenters lead every job, supported by trade partners we have worked with for years and chosen on standard rather than on price. You will always know who is on site and who to call. Meet the people who will be in your home on our Team page.
