About the Project
Del Pueblo Funeral Homes engaged LIVALU for a comprehensive commercial renovation of their Houston facility. The project encompassed a full interior gut-and-rebuild, including structural steel framing, new ceiling systems, custom millwork, and complete LVP flooring throughout.
The chapel interior features a dramatic black marble feature wall as the focal point, flanked by custom wood slat accent panels. The kitchenette and restrooms received custom maple cabinetry and white marble tile finishes.
On the exterior, LIVALU executed a full facade transformation — applying a modern stucco system with architectural wall sconces. The result is a dignified, professionally finished facility that reflects the client's commitment to their community.
