Transforming a Basement with Style
At De Leon's Family Company, we take pride in every renovation and improvement we undertake, making sure each project not only meets but exceeds our clients' expectations. Recently, our team had the opportunity to elevate a basement in Falls Church, VA, transforming it into a functional and inviting space.
Understanding the Client's Needs
When Marc reached out to us, he wanted to enhance his basement with a durable floor and additional storage solutions. His main goal was to improve the overall aesthetics and functionality of the space. We listened carefully to Marc's needs and were excited to begin the transformation.
The Before State
Before we began our work, the basement lacked cohesion and practicality. The flooring was outdated, and the overall appearance did not reflect Marc's vision for a comfortable and stylish area. The first step was to assess the space and discuss options that would fit both his functional needs and aesthetic desires.
Our Transformation Process
Installing Polyurea Floor Coating
Our team got to work by laying down a Polyurea floor coating—a fantastic choice for basements due to its durability and resistance to moisture. We approached the installation with care, ensuring that everything was prepared correctly.
1. Preparation: To maintain the integrity of Marc's home, we took every precaution. Our team laid down drop cloths from the front door to the basement workspace, and covered all furniture to protect it from dust and debris.
2. Applying the Coating: Once prepared, we meticulously applied the Polyurea floor coating, resulting in a beautiful and durable finish.
3. Attention to Detail: Throughout the process, we communicated regularly with Marc, ensuring that he felt involved and informed every step of the way.
After the floor was completed, we received glowing feedback from Marc:
> "Rene and Damian did a fantastic job putting down a Polyurea floor coating in my basement. Every effort to respect my home was taken... Probably the most important thing he does is answer his phone! Quick responses to texts, calls back, etc. I didn't have to track him down and he was proactive with scheduling."
Custom Closet Doors and Trim
But our work didn’t stop there! Following the successful floor installation, Marc asked us to return and install custom closet doors and base molding.
1. Custom Fit: The double closet openings were non-standard sizes, which could have posed a challenge. However, our team expertly cut the doors to fit perfectly, showcasing our commitment to craftsmanship.
2. Final Touches: Adding the base molding completed the look, giving the basement a warm and inviting finish.
Our attention to detail and commitment to quality craftsmanship ensures that our clients receive the best results, which Marc appreciated:
> "Absolutely fantastic work yet again."
The After Results
The transformation of Marc's basement is nothing short of remarkable. With the new Polyurea floor coating and custom closet installations, the area has been revitalized into a functional and attractive part of his home.

Transforming a Kitchen & Living Room
Transforming a Kitchen & Living Room
At De Leon's Family Company LLC | Rivaldo, we take pride in transforming homes and creating spaces that not only meet our clients' needs but also exceed their expectations. Recently, we had the pleasure of working with a wonderful client, Angela, who wanted a refresh for her kitchen and living room in Falls Church, VA.
The Challenge: An Outdated Space
Angela approached us with a request to revitalize her kitchen and living room, which needed renovation due to outdated cabinetry and worn-out finishes. The areas lacked the warmth and functionality that a busy household demands. After thorough discussions, it became clear that we needed to focus on both aesthetics and practicality. Not only did Angela want to replace the cabinets and backsplash, but she also wanted some custom millwork to give her home a distinctive touch—especially since it was an older house where everything was slightly off level.
Our Process: Craftsmanship and Communication
From day one, our team prioritized clear communication and meticulous planning. We believe that open lines of dialogue are key to successful renovations. We discussed every detail with Angela, ensuring she felt confident and informed throughout the process.
Key Steps Included:
- Cabinet Replacement: We carefully selected modern cabinetry that matched Angela’s vision, ensuring a fresh and stylish look.
- Backsplash Installation: A new backsplash was chosen to add both functionality and flair to the kitchen space.
- Custom Carpentry: Understanding the challenges posed by the old house's structure, we tailored our approach to perform custom carpentry, overcoming difficulties with precision and care.
- Painting & Millwork Enhancements: Fresh coats of paint complemented the cabinetry and millwork, enhancing the overall aesthetic appeal of the rooms.
Throughout the project, our skilled craftsmen paid keen attention to detail. From the moment we arrived on site to the final touches, it was clear that we were not just completing a job; we were creating a space that would bring joy and functionality to Angela's home.
The Result: A Stunning Transformation
After our team's dedicated work, the kitchen and living room underwent a remarkable transformation. Angela expressed her delight with the improved functionality and aesthetics of the spaces:
> “Rivaldo and team did an excellent job on my kitchen and living room refresh (changing cabinets and backsplash, painting, millwork). Communication was always timely and clear, always showed up on time, and the attention to detail was not something I am used to seeing and was greatly appreciated. Even my mom commented on it and she's tough to please. I had a couple of specific requests that required custom carpentry and they did that too, even though it's an old house where nothing is level, so it's tough. Will be asking them back for more projects.”
Hearing such positive feedback from our clients drives us further to provide exceptional service. Whether it’s a full renovation like Angela’s or simple updates, we aim for perfection in every project.
