When an electrical fire destroyed James and Sydni’s home, every room had been destoryed. Even so, they wanted to restore and improve the place they loved—and that’s where Gold Coast Solutions stepped in to help.
From Damage to a Dream Home
Insurance Guidance & Project Planning
Right after the fire, we worked closely with James and Sydni to navigate their insurance claim. We provided a clear timeline for permits, demolition, and rebuilding. This organized approach reduced stress and kept the family informed throughout the project.
Reimagined Layout & Structural Upgrades
Instead of just fixing what was lost, we saw an opportunity to make meaningful improvements:
- Reconfigured Rooms for better flow and comfort.
- Enhanced Framing & Insulation for long-term efficiency and safety.
Premium Materials & Thoughtful Design
Once the structure was secure, every major element was upgraded:
- Dual-Pane Windows for improved energy efficiency and noise reduction.
- Quartz Countertops in the kitchen and bathrooms.
- Custom 3-Sided Fireplace Mantle that creates a cozy focal point in the living room.
- Stacked-Stone Exterior for added curb appeal and protection.
- Champagne-Bronze Fixtures and Large-Format Tile for a refined, modern look.
- Faux Beam in the living room for a warm, inviting feel.
A Smooth Return Home
After months of planning, building, and finishing touches, James and Sydni finally moved back in. They were thrilled to see their home completely transformed—modern, functional, and truly “theirs” again. Throughout the process, we stayed in close contact, addressing concerns promptly and ensuring quality craftsmanship at every phase.
