For the complete overhaul of their new home, this family of five requested custom areas to keep them organized to handle guests. Since they frequently welcome out-of-town business associates and their families, they wanted room for extensive food prep, and all the items required for hosting.

Prior to their purchase of this mill worker’s residence, an earlier renovation had misinterpreted the original voice of our client’s home. In a fearless, sweeping process of removing stone from ground to roof outside – together we began to decipher and restore its quietly grand character.

When the homeowners purchased the property nearly 10 years ago, they knew they would eventually make changes. After initial light upgrades to the exterior, they recently committed to a complete renovation to reshape every part of their living experience. In style and function, together we’ve

This 4th we are celebrating 161 cubic yards of concrete, delivered by 21 trucks, precisely set in place over the past 3 weeks, to preserve the foundation of a stone home built shortly after the signing of the Declaration of Independance! Happy 4th of July from Rittenhouse Builders!
I intended to take a photo of the custom railing on the balcony of a project we are completing this month. But wow, how blessed are we to live and work in horse country. #lookup
If your project with Rittenhouse Builders included a hardwood floor in the past 13 years, most likely the fine folks at Caliber Hardwood Floors, Inc. were the ones to install your floor. We work with Bob, Justin, and Jared at Caliber because they take great pride in delighting our clients with a pristine finish.
It was an honor after working together for over a decade to have the team at Caliber ask Rittenhouse Builders to renovate a new showroom for their growing company. They are just moving in this week and unpacking boxes. Check out their Facebook link above for more information on when the doors officially open.
I agree! The guys from Caliber are awesome!
The gang here at Caliber is SUPER excited to finally be in here (though some boxes still need to be unpacked...). And we are also SUPER grateful for the fabulous job that Rittenhouse Builders did for us! We hope to be all set up by the end of July to start inviting folks to stop by and check it out. Stay tuned!
Our client became fascinated with the manufactured wood beams we used to reinforce the existing 1st-floor walls in preparation for her new 2nd floor Art/Craft studio. She loved the distinctive lines of the man-made, but organic product, which lead to a request to build a bench in the studio from this decidedly utilitarian material. I submit for your review the first Rittenhouse Builder Parallam Waterfall bench. Her artistic work is found throughout the project. We will definitely need a pro to photograph this project to do it justice...so I’m going to tease for now. 😀
The end is nigh for this honey colored “builder’s grade” handrail and balustrade circa 2000. Next week, our carpenters will begin installing a formal (with a little glam mixed in) custom railing, wainscot, and trim package in the Foyer and the Kitchen area. The garage has been made ready to store the millwork package which will be followed by delivery of a @ChristianaCabinetry kitchen. #GameOn
I remember having a railing like that before Rittenhouse got a hold of it! :)
In honor of June 18th, "National Splurge Day" may we suggest dallying for an extra-long soak in your thoughtfully renovated Rittenhouse home spa? Do it for the country, it's patriotic.
I love the transitional style of this bathroom! My personal favorites are the Newport Brass Chesterfield faucets and the marble herringbone floor tiles! ~BB
Warning, I'm going to brag about how our team protects our client's homes during construction. These photos are from two recently begun kitchen renovation projects in Malvern. We have installed 3/16" thick corrugated plastic with taped seams to protect pristine hardwood floors. Temporary walls keep the dust contained in the work area while our owners live in what's left of the house. And there is dust! to be controlled. One of the projects includes a master bath and you can see the wetbed plaster that is being removed. A clean house is a happy worksite!
Impressive! 🙌
