Breezeway Remodel

Project Summary

This interior remodeling project was completed for a homeowner in Elkhart Lake, WI, who wanted to convert an underutilized storage hallway between their garage and home into a functional and beautiful breezeway. The client envisioned a more formal yet welcoming space that could serve as both a transitional area and a cozy sitting nook. The remodel included a complete gut renovation with new drywall, electrical updates, flooring installation, professional painting, custom cabinetry, granite countertops, and a designer tile backsplash.

Challenges & Approach

Though the space was relatively small, the project presented a complex logistical challenge due to tight scheduling and the need for subcontractor coordination. Careful planning was essential to ensure all trades—electrical, flooring, cabinetry, and tile—could work without conflict. We also encountered previous substandard electrical work that required correction for safety and long-term performance. Attention to detail was crucial, especially around the installation of the granite and backsplash, where precision made a big difference in the final visual impact.

Final Results

The finished breezeway is now a bright, elegant, and highly functional room that complements the rest of the home’s interior. With new cabinetry and surfaces that reflect modern design aesthetics, this once-overlooked hallway is now a centerpiece of the house. The transformation not only improved the look and feel of the space but also added real, long-term value to the property—offering quality craftsmanship and lasting durability for years to come.
