We asked WFB followers on Facebook and Instagram what the coolest thing they’ve seen in a high-end home where they’ve worked on a wood floor. Here’s what they said.
Tom Schultz
Gummy bear chandelier.
Daniel Saucedo
Pat Goodman
Ron Teljeur
Double French doors in the master bedroom that opened to a small half circle platform from where you could dive into the indoor pool.
Soooo many super cars.
A cool architectural detail in a 1920s mansion. As you walked into the house there was a den on your left where the wall was a bookcase with glass doors on both sides so you could look through the wall into the den.
Cody Rhodes
Stanley Cup.
garrebear36
A U-shaped home with the garage and back of the house all windows, and a rotating platform in the garage so the owner could look back and see his McLaren.
T.J. Haas
I did a “man cave” for a customer with two private bowling lanes. His authentic 250 GTO was hanging above them. The same car eventually sold for well in the eight figures. He also had something that looked like a vending machine for his other cars.
Jonathan Gramajo
I worked at Tom Brady’s house in downtown Boston. I saw him!
David Friedland
Matt Dorsey
A check and thank-you note sitting on the countertop before I finished the job.
Shaun Larry
A black ’91 Ferrari Testarossa on a hydraulic lift with a black ’96 Lamborghini Diablo parked underneath. Both flawless. This was in the Cave Creek area of Scottsdale, Ariz.
Jim Hyde
Showers with, like, eight spigots to get every orifice.
Kevin Knauff
A homeowner had multiple cars. 🚗 A Dino, Porsche SC and Steve McQueen Mustang. Let me drive them all because I was a working stiff and probably never ripped any of those! LOL, it was awesome. Took the wife to dinner in the Dino!
Steven Sherman
A bomb-resistant safe room and a staircase hidden in the kitchen cabinets.
Toby Merrill
A three-story waterfall. A car elevator. Full batting cages.
Kris Jeter
Tree-bark siding. I thought it was the absolute coolest thing ever. $26 million home in Cashiers, N.C.
Mike Wong
Bill Loba-Wakol
Matt Warner
Joe J. Hudson
Me.
Bill Bagley
A customer finished their hot tub room to be a cave with stone walls, vines and water trickling down. The less cool part was the terminal water leak they couldn’t find behind the walls. We had three separate water damage repairs that required hauling our tools up 68 stairs every time …
Ed Sheridan
Super Bowl rings.
Eastside Tile Co.
A full-size bank vault next to the 2,500-gallon water heater. Yes, 2,500.
Troy Stanfield
Parquetry in the car lift that brought the vintage car collection to the upstairs living room.
Casey Ditsworth
I’ve never realized how broke my clientele is.
