Garage Addition & Exterior Renovation – Drake Way, Toms River, NJ

This comprehensive renovation on Drake Way in Toms River, NJ, included a complete transformation of the home’s exterior with a focus on curb appeal, functionality, and long-term durability. The homeowner requested a seamless garage addition, new siding, and an upgraded roofing system, all tailored to withstand New Jersey’s coastal climate and blend with the neighborhood’s elevated aesthetic.

Scope of Work

  • Garage Addition: We constructed a fully integrated garage expansion featuring dual garage doors, a side entry door, and custom paver work for the driveway. The structure blends perfectly with the existing home’s lines and roofing.
  • Exterior Siding Installation: The entire home was re-sided in a coastal gray vinyl shake with crisp white trim, enhancing weather resistance while achieving a clean, modern look.
  • Roof Replacement: A new asphalt shingle roofing system was installed with upgraded underlayment and drip edges to maximize protection against wind and moisture.
  • Front Entry Rebuild: A new stone staircase and porch with white railings and decorative lighting were added to give the entrance a grand, elevated appearance. Stone masonry around the entry adds both durability and beauty.
  • Hardscaping & Landscaping: A custom paver driveway and walkway system were designed with contrasting inlays to guide traffic flow and add visual interest. Landscaping was refreshed with privacy plantings and flower beds.

  • Durable vinyl shake siding with low-maintenance appeal
