Some projects start before MacQueen Systems gets involved. The owner of this 1966 Resto-Mod had already begun — completing the hazard assessment, handling hazardous material removal, and starting the perimeter drainage upgrade herself. But coordinating trades, managing timelines, and finding craftspeople who understood the vision proved harder than expected. That’s when Craig stepped in. What followed was a collaboration built on a simple but rare quality: everyone involved actually cared about what this house was supposed to become.

“They saw my vision — I think that was the best part. They had subcontractors who they could trust, and I came to trust as well, who also shared my vision: wanting to preserve the integrity of a 1966 home, but bring it up into the 21st century.”

A Resto-Mod is exactly what it sounds like, the bones and character of a classic 1960s home, rebuilt to a modern standard without losing what made it worth saving in the first place. Responsive trades, tight scheduling, and a contractor who understood that this wasn’t just a renovation, it was a restoration. When the trades, the contractor, and the client are all pulling in the same direction, the result isn’t just a renovation. It’s exactly what it was always meant to be.
