It makes it possible to use plugins that extend that screen, add old-style meta boxes, or otherwise depend on the previous editor. Classic Editor is an official WordPress plugin, and will be fully supported and maintained until 2024, or as long as is necessary. At a glance, this plugin adds the following: * Administrators can select the default editor for all users. * Administrators can allow users to change their default editor. * When allowed, the users can choose which editor to use for each post. * Each post opens in the last editor used regardless of who edited it last. This is important for maintaining a consistent experience when editing content. In addition, the Classic Editor plugin includes several filters that let other plugins control the settings, and the editor choice per post and per post type. By default, this plugin hides all functionality available in the new block editor ("Gutenberg"). == Changelog == = 1.6.3 = * Added some WPCS fixes, props NicktheGeek on GitHub. * Updated "Tested up to" in the readme and removed it from classic-editor.php.

Fewer people are putting their houses up for sale, which has in turn raised the prices of any houses that are in fact put on the market. If a house is actually worth 1 million dollars, it’ll end up selling for an additional $200,000.

Unfortunately, this puts LA homeowners looking to upgrade to a bigger, better home in a bind. On the one hand, their house is selling for a little bit more. On the other hand, the houses that they were hoping to purchase are now selling for a lot more, and are way outside of their budget.

Luckily, there’s an alternative solution for the growing wave of people that are looking to upgrade their housing situation in LA: room additions. Room additions enable you to grow your space, your comfort, and ultimately your house’s value, all without the hassle and heartbreak of moving

Second Story Addition – Before

Second Story Addition – In Progress

Different homes will obviously have different room addition needs. For some people, an adjacent guest room is what they really need to make staying in their home a welcome choice. For others, a recreation room for their now teenagers is what matters. For a third couple, adding a whole new floor is what’s going to make their house the home they always dreamed of having.

Whatever room you need (or want!), adding another room to your home empowers you to be involved in the process from start to finish. Unlike a home you purchase, when you build an additional room you can have full control over the materials used and the room’s interiors. In many ways, a room addition can revitalize your entire home. By increasing your living space by adding a room of your design, the house you were thinking of selling becomes the place you never want to leave.

Bathroom Renovations https://www.jnoconstruction.com/bathroom-renovations/ https://www.jnoconstruction.com/bathroom-renovations/#respond Tue, 07 Apr 2015 23:22:35 +0000 http://24constructionanddesign.com/bathroom-renovations/ Bathroom renovations go a long way toward improving home comfort and impacting the value of your home. A bathroom remodeling project can potentially be your most cost-effective way to redefining your house.

This is your chance to transform your bathroom into a welcoming paradise. Or you can clear the clutter and turn the room into a clean, crisp update. Bathrooms are personal. You need to feel comfortable with the space and get the function you most want. Bathroom remodeling can do all of this.

Wish List

Before beginning your project or making any decisions, take the time to draft up the pros and cons of your current bathroom. Develop a sharp sense of what you’re wanting out of a new bathroom.  Ask yourself whether there are major changes that would greatly improve your enjoyment of the room. Do you need a bathroom for two? Does it need to used by both kids and adults? Do you need to radically change your storage space, or perhaps create a partition for the toilet? With the right planning, you can accomplish any of these goals.

Of course, costs are a major factor in any renovation. Thankfully, bathroom renovations can potentially cost a bit less than renovating larger rooms.  Consult experts for a quote, or start with ball park figures using tools such
as Better Homes & Gardens’ bathroom remodeling cost calculator.

Styles and Trends

Find a style that evokes the feeling you want out of your bathroom. Designs vary as much as anywhere else in the home. You can go for trends or unique motifs such as this eco-modern bathroom or these industrial-chicstyles featured on Remodelista.

For a guide to various styles and what they accomplish, HGTV has a bathroom remodeling trends guide here.

Remember, your renovation is your chance to get exactly what you want. You can go full-force with glass-and-steel modernism or make a Mediterranean splash. But you can also tailor it just the way you want. Remodeling professionals can help you design around a beloved centerpiece such as a clawfoot tub you adore, or a vision of his-and-hers pedestal sinks.

Keep in mind that you can adjust your style with fixtures and décor, but the big decisions on materials have a great impact on the bathroom. As you search for inspiration, notice what materials and colors seem most enticing to you.

Layout

The overall layout of your bathroom can be adjusted, even if it seems set in stone as it is. Seasoned renovation experts can help you figure out how to reconfigure the shower or bath, the toilet, and the sink – or work around the
infrastructure to accomplish what you want. For example, partial-height walls can add separation to the space.

Storage is key to a stylish and functional bathroom. If you want to hide away the toiletries, new cabinetry and creative options can make that happen. Shelves can also add to your storage space without taking up square footage.

You can also get creative with the layout of powder rooms or half-baths, such as ideas found in this guide from HGTV.

Bath or Shower

The tub or shower offers a renovation area that can seriously overhaul the look and feel of the room. Think about both personal touches and universal appeal, especially if you think you might sell soon.

Nothing has the timeless beauty of an excellent bathtub, but modern stand-up showers have become extremely popular for good reason. From glass surroundings to personalized fixtures and details, your shower should do everything you want it to. Think about whether you want built-in shelving or stands for shower products, for instance.

The tub or shower can incorporate intriguing materials like concrete as well as the wide range of steel, ceramic, and glass surfaces. Of course, shower tiles are both classic and open to expressive interpretation. From cuts of natural stone
to colorful ceramics or textured subway tiles, the possibilities are quite open.

Countertops

For the bathroom with a countertop, your choice of material will greatly impact your everyday use as well as the cost and value of the bathroom remodeling project.

Granite or granite tile is a long-time favorite that matches with a variety of design styles. Other stone options, such as marble or soapstone, offer elegance and beauty that requires just a tad more maintenance. You can also swing for
beautiful but less expensive options such as manufactured quartz.

Tiles also create beautiful bathroom countertops, allowing plenty of personalization of color and scale. For affordable custom cuts and colors, synthetic solids are often an appealing choice.

A unique bathroom remodeling project should also consider outside-the-box options like stainless steel or sealed wood. HGTV offers a helpful video discussion of unique countertop materials for the bathroom.

Sink & Faucet

The sink itself, as well as the faucet and fixtures, can complete a bathroom remodeling project perfectly. Many trends include bowl or vessel sinks. You can browse ideas for intriguing options in Remodelista’s list of architect-designed sinks.

When choosing a sink and faucet, consider any preferences you and your family have regarding the function and shape of handles and the faucet itself. Think about specifics, such as whether you use the sink for shaving or other tasks. The faucet should wow you with aesthetics while also making everyday life easygoing.

Toilet

Complete the look and feel of your bathroom remodeling with a toilet that makes you most comfortable. Your renovation project is the time to add a bidet or completely change the color or shape of the toilet, so take your time browsing options.

In addition to finding a model that best suits you, consider how storage and other features of the bathroom can be affected by the toilet and its placement. A bathroom remodeling expert can help craft storage space above the toilet, or
assist with redesigning the layout to make best use of your space.

Bathroom Remodeling: In Conclusion

Renovating your bathroom allows you to update your space to invigorate the room and improve its aesthetics. This is also the perfect time to indulge in features that will pamper you and make your daily routine more relaxing and more efficient.

A great bathroom renovation can involve tearing everything out and starting anew, but you can also do a lot with a face lift that upgrades your surfaces and fixtures. It’s a personal space where you should feel at home, and bathroom
remodeling lets you get the best value and use out of the room.

1919 Historical Renovation https://www.jnoconstruction.com/1919-historical-renovation/ https://www.jnoconstruction.com/1919-historical-renovation/#respond Mon, 30 Mar 2015 21:47:48 +0000 http://24constructionanddesign.com/1919-historical-renovation/ Magical, Storybook, Renovated 1919 Grand Craftsman Bungalow on a gorgeous tree-lined street in Spaulding Square HPOZ.

image

Sharing much of the history of Hollywood, Spaulding Square was developed in the 1920s. The Square was named after California architect, Albert Starr Spaulding, who developed the eight block area between 1916 and 1926. Most of the early residents were silent film stars and directors.  One early resident was Rudolph J. Berquist, a renowned cinematographer known for early works like Camille (1921 film) and One Night In Rome (1924 film). He built his personal residence here in 1919 and the house is now part of the HPOZ, remaining in perfect condition to this day.

image

This 1919 original diamond in the rough was just over 1,700 square feet large and sits on a spacious and sunny 8,100 square foot corner lot.

Taken in 2015 – We, JNO Construction & Design, had a great honor renovating this important piece of history for the last year while maintaining the property architectural integrity. What used to be a 1700 square feet large is now a 2700 square feet large with 2nd story, pool & spa.

The kitchen before & after – A lot of thinking went into how to maximize the space while keeping the architectural integrity. Changing the kitchen entry allowed us to have more cabinet space. Raising the ceiling & taking out the ceiling beams gave an open feeling to the space.

New kitchen was designed with custom white shaker cabinets, stainless steal appliances & hardware, calacatta marble counter top and grey ceramic backsplash tile.

The previous owners had lots of information about the house and its history. They were able to share some of the original photos of the house when it was being built in 1919.

Yes.  That is a completely undeveloped Laurel Canyon and part of Mount Olympus in the background!

image

Here’s the home a few years later and you can see the small sapling trees alongside the house that today tower well over the roof line and create shade for the property. The house was completed by the Ramey Building Company on August 18th,1919 at a total cost of $4,950.

 

The Latest renovated house was completed on 2015 by JNO Construction & Design and is on the market for $2.7M!

Even in a mild climate, houses need special attention to be prepared for winter temperatures. Take a few moments to get your house ready for cooler days, and you’ll enjoy the winter more comfortably.

In the spirit of taking care of your home 24/7, here are 24 outstanding tips to prep your home and property for winter:

  1. Clean and rinse gutters to prevent unsightly buildup and damaging clogs.
  2. Check your chimney and call in a chimney sweep necessary; it should at least be inspected before use.
  3. Detect air leaks around windows, walls, and floorboards. Handy tip: use a lit candle or incense stick to help find drafts.
  4. Add new weatherstripping to keep the warm in and the cold out.
  5. Exterior leaks can devastate your energy efficiency and put your property at risk. Look for cracks and seal with a caulking compounding.
  6. Reverse ceiling fan blades to push warm air downward in the colder months and reduce your heating needs.
  7. Check duct spaces for leaks to ensure your best energy efficiency.
  8. Swimming pools that will remain in use should at least be covered.
  9. If possible, use less pool chemicals and run the filter less frequently.
  10. If your swimming pool will be out of use, lower the water level to below the skimmer.
  11. Wash your windows to maximize the amount of winter sun shining through. This also helps give you the chance to check for cracks or leaks.
  12. Upgrade to double- or triple-paned windows to enjoy modern efficiency and a style update.
  13. Add blackout curtain liners or upgrade your curtains to increase efficiency.
  14. Test and replace smoke alarm batteries as part of your annual routine.
  15. Let more sun in for warmth by changing up your window treatments and trimming shade trees outside.
  16. Clearing bushes will keep the plants healthy and your yard clean.
  17. For your shrubs, consider bracing them with twine or boxing them in to protect them in cold weather.
  18. Find evergreen plants to add which will keep your landscape its greenest year-round.
  19. Grow plants indoors to help purify the air while you’re nestled inside.
  20. Look into whether your plants need major watering once more before winter.
  21. Septic tanks should be insulated—try laying down mulch around it or letting grass grow longer.
  22. Get your septic tank pumped and begin a fall routine of pumping it every few years.
  23. Look for uneven or damaged parts of your roof and have them fixed immediately.
  24. Inspect shingles for damage, warping, or missing shingles and repair.

Of course, being prepared for changing seasons is easier when your home is well-designed and features the newest technologies and appliances. We’re always looking for tips to enjoy SoCal homes to the fullest year-round, so let us know in the comments below if you have great advice to share with others!
