Enjoy A Welcoming Kitchen That Suits Your Lifestyle
The way your kitchen looks and functions is a highly personal decision. No single kitchen design works for everyone – that’s why different lifestyles require different kitchen setups. An aspiring chef needs ample counter space for easy cooking, while large families need a big table, comfortable seating, and enough room for every member. Your kitchen should be an excellent spot for entertaining and dining at the same time.
You know your kitchen is the perfect environment for you when it’s a true extension of your personality. Walking in your kitchen every day should make you happy and put a smile on your face. A kitchen remodel is your chance to create a living space that reflects your lifestyle and tastes.
Upgrade your home with a redesigned basement
Basements are much more than a place for storing unused items. They’ve also come a long way since the days of wood paneling and cheap carpets. A well-finished modern basement is warm, inviting, and just as beautiful as your home’s living room.
The main floors of your home might seem large enough for your family, but in time, everyone needs more space. If you have a basement, you have the perfect canvas to expand your living space any way you want. It’s the ideal place for hosting a movie or game night and having a fun time.
Whether you need a home office, a bigger family room, a gym, or a guest bedroom, we can help you make your basement fit your ever-growing needs.
A Private Retreat For Your Moments Of Relaxation
Your bathroom is one of the most frequented rooms in your house. It’s where you prepare for your day, but also where you should be able to relax when you’re done with your daily chores. That’s why you’d want it to be highly functional, calming, and relaxing at all times.
Having enough space, the right equipment, and an organizational system that works is quite essential. So if your bathroom doesn’t give you all that yet, then it may be time for an upgrade.
Experience more comfort at home with a new bathroom that perfectly matches your style and needs. We’ll help you choose and install state-of-the-art features that will turn your dull bathroom into the oasis of relaxation you deserve.
Our Services
You deserve a perfectly crafted space that supports your lifestyle and suits your taste. We partner with you to create your ideal kitchen, bathroom, or basement, enabling you to live life to the fullest in your own home.

What Our Customers Say…
With each project we embark on, we bring our expertise to create a welcoming environment for you. Your appreciation is our biggest motivation to keep striving for excellence.
We had a complete kitchen remodel done by Rust & Sawdust. From start to finish Justin was amazing! He listened to what I wanted, shared my vision, and delivered on promises. Having your house torn up for months is not pleasant but Justin took all steps needed to allow us to maintain a functional home. Even with a few breaks in work I required, my project was done 2 weeks early! Unheard of with most contractors. I would never use anyone but Rust & Sawdust. I started out with a kitchen so small I was storing things in my garage. Now, I have drawers that are empty! My custom cabinets and countertops are extremely high quality and were installed perfectly. Justin takes care of everything from start to finish, which really decreases the stress that comes along with a big remodel. He even had my kitchen professionally cleaned before the final walkthrough! The quality work, excellent customer service and special touches just can’t be matched by other businesses. Thank you again Justin for everything you have done and for taking my vision and turning it into my dream kitchen
Kelly O'Reilly
We hired Justin and Adria to renovate our 70’s kitchen. They helped us design every aspect of the project. We especially appreciated the selections they came up with, which saved us from the excruciating task of shopping for every item.
Justin and his team were always prompt and professional. Justin is a great communicator and always kept us in the loop.
Taking on this major project during a pandemic created unexpected hiccups. Justin went above and beyond to solve situations out of his control.
We give Rust and Sawdust a 5-star rating! We will certainly contact them with any future projects! Great people to work with
Julie Waterman
We hired the Rust and Sawdust team to take over our basement renovation this winter.
From the beginning, we were so impressed with Justin and Adria’s thorough design plans, attention to detail, and thoughtful design choices that they presented. This renovation was seamless thanks to Adria’s help as the designer and Justin’s work as the general contractor.
They took detailed note of our dreams for a family friendly basement including a game room, bar, family room, playroom, remodeled bathroom, and made them a reality.
I will definitely recommend their services to all my family and friends and I will be calling them back for any future projects!
