Modern Farmhouse Dream

By: Markdan on Oct 28, 2025 01:01 PM EST
We’re deep into a major renovation on our old Ontario farmhouse and the final piece is the roof. We’ve always dreamed of a standing seam metal roof to get that modern farmhouse look and incredible lifespan. This is a big investment in the final aesthetic, so we need an installation crew that’s more artist than just installer. Any Canadians out there work with a company that truly excels at the finer details and complex finishes on residential projects?

We went through the same with our old Ontario farmhouse—wanted that sleek standing seam metal look, but worried about getting someone who treats it like a true craft, not just a quick install. Ended up going with https://falxroofing.ca/hamilton-roofers/ and they nailed every detail, from clean seams to precise edges. Honestly felt like artists on a canvas rather than a typical crew. The farmhouse finally looks exactly how we imagined!

Two years ago, I wanted to diversify a bit and thought about owning a place somewhere warm. Through https://worldestate.homes/en/georgia-2/batumi/, I found listings that matched my budget better than I expected. Batumi has this mix of coastal vibe and growing infrastructure, which made it appealing. I visited in person to make sure everything looked like in the photos — and yes, some details were different, but overall the city impressed me. I ended up buying a one-bedroom apartment close to the seafront. I don’t stay there often, but it’s nice knowing it’s mine. Maintenance takes some coordination, but the local services are improving. For me, it wasn’t about quick returns — just having a place to escape to once in a while. That alone made it worth it.
