We executed a full-scale, gutted renovation of a unit in an apartment building, transforming a severely outdated space into a premium asset that immediately doubled rental revenue.
We started by tearing out an 18-foot wall and ripping down the old drop ceilings to create a massive, wide-open concept living space. We built a full-custom kitchen featuring integrated cabinetry, a modern appliance suite with a built-in fridge, and a custom island with a clean wainscoting wrap, all tied together by engineered hardwood flooring throughout. The structural pillar was seamlessly integrated into the kitchen design, with custom shelving built directly into it.
To work with the building's original deep brick walls, we built custom window sills and deep frames to match the space perfectly. We finished the entire unit with crown moulding and detailed modern trim on every surface. By converting a neglected, difficult-to-rent unit into a premium, high-demand space, we doubled the client's rental revenue from $750 to $1,500 per month.
We are your single point of contact for both the project and the property. Because we have a carpenter and a licensed plumber right on our internal team, we handle the core renovation and ongoing maintenance work ourselves to keep your rates competitive. From managing problematic tenants and move-out repairs to coordinating specialized trades like electricians—we deal with all of it so you don't have to. 3B Property Management Co.

We responded to an emergency flood at a 120-year-old duplex where rapid snowmelt overwhelmed the fieldstone foundation, sending five inches of water into the basement and threatening the furnace and water heater.
Emergency Response: Immediately deployed a high-capacity submersible pump and fire hose to safely extract hundreds of gallons of water through a basement window.
Permanent Remediation: To prevent future build-up, we broke through the concrete floor, excavated the ground, and installed a heavy-duty sump pit and pump system. We buried the discharge lines, sealed the exit points, and poured new concrete to permanently protect the mechanical equipment and keep the basement dry.
We tackled a severe ice-damming issue at one of our clients' rental properties by fully restoring proper airflow and thermal protection in the attic. Intake & Baffles: Cut OSB wood to custom-extend the rafter bays. Installed rafter baffles directly from the soffit up past the new bases, ensuring the roof can breathe and intake fresh air cleanly.
Exhaust & Insulation: This proper venting allows trapped hot air to escape efficiently through the roof vents. To finish, we added an extra 12 inches of insulation to bring the attic to a full 20 inches, achieving a true R60 value to reduce heat loss that causes ice damming and lower the utility bills.
We completed a fast-tracked, high-impact interior makeover on a duplex unit to refresh the space for new renters and maximize its market value for a potential sale.
Kitchen & Living Upgrades: Installed a modern tile backsplash, custom barn-board shelving, and new appliances. Boxed in a brand-new window with clean casing and custom trim, and built a custom enclosure to hide the electrical panel.
Bathroom Refresh: Upgraded the bathtub, tile surround, toilet, and vanity sink, finishing it off with a clean matching backsplash to give the entire room a fresh, modern look.
