Housefront Remodel in Granite Hills

This comprehensive exterior remodel focused on resolving severe hardscape damage caused by overgrown landscaping while completely reimagining the home’s curb appeal. By introducing a functional new concrete layout, custom woodwork, and cohesive exterior finishes, we transformed a poorly designed front yard into a stunning, welcoming entryway.

• Location: San Diego Area

• Project Scope: Full Exterior Remodel, Hardscaping, & Custom Carpentry

• Key Features: Redesigned concrete with inset tile, matching custom wood door and trellis, new stucco, new roof, and a custom iron gate

The property’s exterior was suffering from both structural and aesthetic issues. A massive palm tree had overgrown its space, with its root system aggressively breaking up the old concrete pathways. Beyond the physical damage, the original hardscape layout suffered from a poor design that made the approach to the home feel awkward and uninviting. To compound the issues, the home’s exterior finishes were tired and in need of a major refresh.

HomeSmith executed a top-to-bottom exterior overhaul to fix the layout and elevate the home’s architectural character:

• Hardscape & Tile: We removed the problem tree and engineered a completely new concrete layout for better flow, adding custom inset tile on the step risers for a unique pop of character.

• Custom Woodwork: To create a warm, inviting focal point, we installed a new front door and built a custom architectural trellis. Both were crafted from the exact same wood species and stained to match perfectly.

• Exterior Finishes: The entire house was re-stuccoed, and all exterior trim was repainted to modernize the facade. We also coordinated the installation of a brand-new roof.

• Elevated Details: Fresh landscaping was brought in to complement the new layout, and a custom-designed, arch-top wrought iron entry gate was installed to complete the high-end look.
