Forest Acres, South Carolina
Work Built for Forest Acres Houses
Forest Acres is its own city inside Columbia, off Trenholm and Forest Drive, full of mature oaks and mid-century brick. Geaux 2 Guy works throughout it on kitchens, bathrooms, trim, flooring and the running repair list an older house generates.
This is brick ranch country, mostly 1950s and 1960s, and the houses are built well enough that people stay in them. What dates them is the inside. Rooms are closed off from each other. Kitchens have one run of cabinets. Hall bathrooms still have the original tub, and the doors and casing were plain when they went in. Those are all fixable without touching the structure. Gills Creek runs through the area and low-lying properties know it, so we also see repair work driven by water rather than by age.
