After a year of planning, permits, reviews, demo and reconstruction, we have finally finished our Foxer-Upper project. This has truly been a labor of love. Not only are we thrilled with the final product, but we had a blast working with so many great people in Golden along the way!! We want to give a shout out to DT Construct and Ewers Architecture for their leadership and visionary thinking in making this project happen.
We are also grateful for all the sub-contractors who were so vital to the success of this renovation. We personally want to thank Eric Olricksen with Sovoco Hydronics who did all of our plumbing, Tony Ortiz with Community Mechanical for HVAC, Bryan Vandenbark of Basic Electric who did all of our electrical work, Jared Robinson and Sons Flooring for their amazing work restoring our old wood floors, Ozzie and RJI for siding and roofing and Denver Concrete for the concrete work.
We are also grateful to so many friends for their help along the way, from hauling bags of trash into dumpsters, to demo work, to painting, flooring, or barn doors. This was truly a community effort.
The best part of the last two months of work was seeing many of the old parts of the house come back to life, from the old doors, to the exposed brick to the flooring, to all the old wood we put back into the home that we removed in Demo.
The relationships formed with our contractors as we worked along side them was a highlight, as well as the countless conversations with neighbors who stopped by and wanted to chat about the transformation.
There were a few days we were not sure this day would come, but how fulfilling to see how it all came together in the end. We are grateful!
Off to our next adventure. Peace out 912 Arapahoe!
Jeff and Leslie Fox
