Featured project

Nicole's house. Finished by her dad and her brother.

When Larry's daughter (Dakota's sister) built her home, the finish work came to Pro Line. Nicole was on the ladder right alongside them. This is the whole house, from open trusses to the last piece of trim.

Finished great room with black beamed ceiling, white kitchen, banquette, and stair rail — The great room: beamed ceiling, kitchen, banquette, and stair rail, all Pro Line.

Why this one's different

Same standard as every job. Higher stakes at Sunday dinner.

Larry and Dakota treat every home like it's worth doing right. When the home belongs to Nicole, there's no version of "good enough" that survives the next family dinner.

Outside of the trades the job required, nearly everything you see finished here went through family hands: Larry and Dakota, with Nicole working right next to them.

We're showing it because it's the clearest look we have at what Pro Line does across a whole house, not just one wall or one room. And it's the same standard your house gets.
