At Tell Projects, each project we undertake is unique, not just in the craftsmanship we bring, but also in the relationships we build with our clients. Recently, we had the pleasure of working with Nathaniel Cameron, a homeowner in Houston, Texas, who was looking to enhance the privacy and aesthetic appeal of his property. His request was for a 31-foot bathroom remodel with a custom 2x12 top trim. This project stood out for its attention to detail and Nathaniel’s vision for a remodel that would be both functional and stylish.
The Initial Consultation: Understanding Nathaniel’s Needs
When Nathaniel first contacted Tell Projects, he had a clear idea of what he wanted. He needed a bathroom remodel that would provide the necessary privacy and security for his property, but he also wanted it to complement the beauty of his home. Nathaniel’s home in Houston, TX is surrounded by lush greenery, and he wanted a remodel that would seamlessly blend into the landscape while offering durability and lasting beauty.
Cedar was the perfect choice for this project. Known for its rich, natural color and resistance to decay, cedar wood is ideal for homes in Houston’s hot and humid climate. Cedar ages beautifully, taking on a silver-gray patina over time, which was something Nathaniel particularly appreciated.
We discussed various design options, and Nathaniel was drawn to the idea of incorporating a 2x12 top trim to add an extra level of elegance and sturdiness to the project. The top trim would provide a polished, finished look while enhancing the structural integrity of the project—a perfect blend of form and function.
Planning the Project: A Collaborative Effort
At Tell Projects, we believe that every successful project begins with clear communication. From the start, Nathaniel was great to work with, providing input on every aspect of the design. We visited his property in Houston, Texas, to get precise measurements and assess the landscape. This allowed us to ensure that the 31-foot bathroom remodel would be installed in the ideal location, maximizing both privacy and visual appeal.
One of the critical factors we discussed during the planning phase was the 2x12 top trim. While many remodels simply end at the top of the boards, Nathaniel wanted something that would stand out. The 2x12 trim would not only cap the project but also provide a design element that set it apart from other remodels in the neighborhood. It would act as a strong visual line, drawing attention to the natural beauty of the cedar while giving the project a modern, streamlined look.
The Installation: Bringing Nathaniel’s Vision to Life
With the plans finalized, our team got to work. Installing a 31-foot bathroom remodel with a 2x12 top trim requires precision and attention to detail, and we were excited to bring Nathaniel’s vision to life. The first step was setting the posts deep into the ground to ensure the project would remain stable and secure for years to come.
One of the key challenges in Houston’s climate is the humidity, which can cause materials to expand and contract. Cedar is an excellent choice for this environment, as it naturally resists warping and decay. However, we took extra care during the installation to make sure each board was properly spaced and securely fastened.
The highlight of this project was the 2x12 top trim, which required careful measurement and craftsmanship. We wanted the trim to not only cap the project but also create a cohesive design element that would tie the entire structure together. The result was stunning. The cedar boards and the trim complemented each other beautifully, creating a remodel that was as durable as it was visually striking.
Overcoming Challenges in Houston’s Climate
Working in Houston, Texas, presents unique challenges for remodeling contractors. The heat, humidity, and occasional storms can take a toll on outdoor structures. Fortunately, cedar is naturally resistant to moisture and decay, making it the ideal material for Nathaniel’s project. We also applied a protective sealant to the wood, ensuring that it would retain its rich color and remain resistant to the elements for years to come.
At Tell Projects, we always prioritize the longevity of our work, and this project was no exception. We knew that the combination of cedar and the 2x12 top trim would not only meet Nathaniel’s aesthetic goals but also hold up beautifully in Houston’s challenging climate.
The Final Result: A Happy Client and a Stunning
By the time we finished the project, Nathaniel was thrilled with the result—and so were we. The 31-foot bathroom remodel with the 2x12 top trim provided exactly what he was looking for: privacy, security, and an elegant design that enhanced the overall look of his property. The clean lines of the trim added a touch of sophistication, while the natural beauty of the cedar brought warmth and character to the space.
Nathaniel expressed his appreciation for the craftsmanship and attention to detail, and it was incredibly rewarding to see how satisfied he was with the final product. At Tell Projects, we take pride in every remodel we build, but this project was particularly special because of the collaboration we had with Nathaniel and the unique design elements we were able to incorporate.
