We completed our Valley Junction bathroom remodels this week. Two different house’s. Two very different Bathrooms. One with tile work from floor to ceiling with a zero transtion shower entry with help from Vinsick Tile & Flooring Design. The other bathroom we gutted completely and started over to give it that modern look with all the right lighting. Including the hybrid shower system. It’s not tile but it’s a water tight shower system that provides the look of tile without the extra Cost. Most Valley Junction bathrooms are small and strictly business but that doesn’t mean you can’t do BIG things in your small bathroom. Give your bathroom the glow up it deserves!!!!

We hope you enjoy the before and afters for both of these projects. We have a soft spot for Valley Junction. We are truly lucky to continue to do projects in this historic neighborhood year after year.

Friendly reminder that if you’re not going to be home Friday, Saturday or Sunday. PLEASE TURN OFF YOUR MAIN WATER VALVE. Normally there is two main valve’s on the left and right side of your water meter!!!!! Secondly drain down your water supply by going to the lowest sink that you have in your home, normally in the basment. Turn on your hot and cold at the faucet and let the water run until it stops and leave the sink ON. If you dont have a sink in your basment. Disconnect your waterlines from your washer. If there’s a floor drain near or if not you’ll need a five gallon bucket. Normally there’s two to three gallons of water in your waterlines throughout your home. Let it drain into a five gallon bucket that way the water doesn’t have a chance to expand and burst your pipes. Remember 1: turn your main water supply OFF 2: drain down the waterlines and leave the faucets in the ON position.
3. OPEN the doors on bathroom vanities or kitchen sink cabinet to let the warm air in. It takes 5 minutes to prevent this terrible disaster from happening.

HHR Hansen Home Renovations can do emergency waterline repairs. But we want you to have the right information.
That way you can have peace of mind this weekend if you’re away from home.

And if you have an emergency situation like a burst waterline, follow the same steps to get it under control FAST. Until a plumber can get there.

Chariton house fire project is complete. An unfortunate kitchen fire that was covered by insurance. From tragic to peace of mind. We started by gutting the main floor and starting over. We made some kitchen and bathroom layout change ups to take advantage of space. She now has a completely remodeled SAFE home. We love that for her and her 2 sons. We can’t forget about ole junie dog who was our stand in supervisor for the project. From unlivable to completely renovated. Thats what Hansen Home Renovations has been doing for 10 years.
130 year old house’s to million dollars homes. We’ve got you covered. Our reviews can match that promise.

The West Des Moines main floor remodel is complete. We opened up 5 load bearing walls and removed 2 non load bearing walls for starters. We removed the laundry sink pushed the wall back to open up the area to make room for the new mud room/ laundry room area. Cosmetic glow ups to both main floor bathrooms. With some new custom trim work around the new opened up area’s. Including board and batten in one of the bathrooms. The kids locker area is awesome for us as the homeowner decided she wanted to use her grandpas old church pew. So we cut it in half and put it back together to make it fit in that area. As well as all new lighting on the main floor, new kitchen appliances and updating the living room trim work. On to the basement we opened up 2 load bearing walls and moved 2 non load bearing walls to create the new gym. We removed the awkward platform that was at the bottom of their basement stairs. You had to step down into the basement living room and storage room it was a tripping hazard. We love the etched gold bathroom faucets, mirrors, and vanity lights along side all the new black door hardware. Brand new etched gold kitchen appliances. The homeowners 3 year old daughter called us her worker men. she put a show on for us whenever she could. Her mother knew exactly what she wanted and nailed it. What do all of you think ???
