Hardwood Floors

Today was a beautiful day outside. But it was also that way inside for some home owners. Jon and a few other guys started first thing this morning ripping old carpet out to install hardwood floors. They weren't really expecting to get all the floor done, but everything went so well, that in one day they tore carpet out and installed the new floor in most of the area they were hoping to put it. What a beautiful change for this home!


Here the men are working hard at getting the flooring in. Goes so nicely with the wood around their fireplace and certainly will add a fresh new look to their dining room, living room, and hallway where it was installed.


This contemporary dining room area will be really styling with this floor! Here is Jon working his way to the kitchen. What a great look this house will now have! From doors to floors, Bovee Family Services can help you make changes that your house needs to feel new, yet not cost the same price as brand new. We are here to serve you, just give us a call! We can give you ideas or take your ideas and make them reality.

Testimonial- L. B. Wolcottville, IN

This young man has done many jobs for me around my home. He is quick and the one I call when I have jobs needing taken care of that I am unable to do. The following is a brief list of some of the things he has done.
~He brought my laundry room up to the main floor from the basement. This included tearing out a closet and laundry chute, installing a stack washer/dryer, and repainting the walls, trim, and vanity. What a difference!
~The landscaping has had his touch several times. He removed overgrown bushes and added new plants. The other bushes have been trimmed and the sidewalks edged.
~My garage catches lots of overflow from the house, and he has came in cleaned out, organized and made new shelves.
~He has installed a new water softener and brings me salt.
~Even little jobs help me out such as light bulbs changed, refrigerator door seal replaced, cleaned gutters and three doors replaced to make my older home more updated.
~Oil changes for my vehicle are done right here at my home, and other maintenance for my van. So convenient!

He cleans up the messes, works efficiently and always leaves me pleased with the ending result. Jon is my go to guy for all my home repairs, remodels, outside care, and auto care needs. Thanks for all that you do!

Enhancing A Hallway With A New Door

This job was a quick one, but what a difference it made in this hallway that leads to the family room. This hallway comes from the kitchen, and the door that was changed goes to the basement. The basement is where a lot of storage is and extra canned goods. So, it is used daily. The handle was on the side opposite of the direction of the kitchen. What a hassle to walk around the door, so he got a new door with the handle on the more convenient side and white to brighten up the hallway.
Here is the before picture. This door has been in since the house was built, so about 34 years old. An update was definitely needed.

Here is the master craftsman at work. Quick, easy, and out in no time, left this client with a beautiful new door that she just loves.

Fits perfectly and looks so much nicer. Wow, what a difference!
This client will also be having some closet doors in her foyer redone, as well as some electrical work. Jon's services and capabilities are extensive, which allows him to meet all of your home's needs. Wouldn't it be nice to have one company do ALL the jobs you need accomplished in your home, both big and small? Give Jon a call, and he will see what you need done.
Continue checking this blog. We would like to keep our readers/clients informed of what the possibilities are for your home to have a face lift and feel like a new place without having a brand new home. We'll help you with ideas or simply redo the things you want changed. We look forward to your call today!

Wood Cutting and Clearing


This time of year, some may be preparing to fire up their wood stoves to heat their homes this winter. We have done that already and just love the warmth of wood heat. One of our neighbors wanted his woods cleaned out of dead trees, which works out perfectly for us because we know just the place to take the wood-our wood pile. This is another service that we offer. Cleaning out a woods of all the dead and fallen trees can be time consuming but looks so much nicer when finished.

Jon has the gear, the know how, and enjoys getting outdoors and using his chainsaw.
This is something I remember doing when I was a little girl. My dad would take me and my brother along when he cut wood, and we would build forts and use our imaginations in the deep dark forest. But it wasn't all play for us. We had to help load the wood into the truck and then pile it when we got home. This is something that we want our children to learn as well. It is so good to have children help, and I can remember it being fun. Little did I know that my parents were teaching me how to work and do what needed to be done in the family. That is what we want to instill in our children too. They love going to the woods with their Papa, and are becoming good little helpers.

This day of wood cutting came to a close. Time to pack up and head home where supper awaits. I wouldn't want my children following anybody else so closely as their Papa. If they walk in his footsteps, they will grow up to become respectful young adults who know how to work and serve others. That is one of our goals and if they can have fun learning it, then that is even better.
