More features throughout the home

Sometimes, it’s the subtle details that make a new home worth buying.

• We have installed Progress and/or Kichler Lighting in every home.

They are very quiet and are the standard in the industry, as well as being maintenance free. They also allow for single zone climate control.

The ERV is affordable to run in your home. They are very quiet and can last for more than 11 years without shutting it off.
• Aerobarrier is a material that, when sprayed throughout the home during the construction phase, completely seals off any holes in the home that would allow for increase airflow and decreased heating/cooling. This material allows your new home to be airtight, significantly decreasing your energy bill and much more efficient heating/cooling.
• We install Carlisle Closed Cell Spray Foam Insulation, which is the most efficient form of insulation, in the roof framing. Other benefits include noise reduction, sturdiness, lasting longer, and preventing mold, mildew, and bugs.
