Garage Luxury

As beautiful as the university area is in Saskatoon there is one downfall to living there - parking! Most houses along Temperance don't have a garage and if they do it is not attached. With a custom build this limitation is no more! Our custom home now has a paved driveway, beautiful garage doors, and a two car garage with in floor heat! Say goodbye to scraping windows and starting the cars in the cold mornings and say hello to a nice warm vehicle.

Adding Purple to Make it Green

The residents of the Temperance build made a simple request - they wanted their home to be green; so we went in and sprayed it purple! No, not the paint colour. Poly Plus came by last week and filled the walls and ceilings with purple spray foam insulation which is an environmentally friendly building solution. What makes spray foam so great? Because it is a spray instead of sheets of fiberglass, every crack and corner is completely filled leaving no drafts or room for air to enter or escape the home. This means the cold air stays out and the heat stays in allowing your furnace to not work quite so hard. This lowers your utility bills and gives you more comfort. Also, because the foam fully fills the space, bugs are less likely to enter the home in the spring. Spray foam also reduces moisture infiltration preventing mold growth. Watch how a little purple can make a home turn green!

Give Thanks for the Sunshine

This Thanksgiving we were giving thanks for the beautiful weather in the last couple weeks. The sunshine allowed us to make progress on the exterior of Temperance. The stucco and stone work is complete and the fencing and landscape preparation is underway. Soon the window wells will be finished and the homeowners will have a beautiful deck with a hot tub for some well deserved relaxation! Now that's something to be thankful for!
