Manitowoc Parade of Homes

2014 PARADE OF

HOMES

Welcome to the 29th Annual Parade of Homes! This year’s Parade will feature ten (10) new homes and one (1) remodel construction project. Our Parade features the craftsmanship and quality of the top building professionals in Manitowoc County. Your ticket is good all weekend for one visit to each home. Don’t hurry through, take your time and appreciate the

quality workmanship. Each home is filled with character so if an idea peaks your interest, please feel free to talk to the builder, supplier, or subcontractor available at each home. They would love to answer your questions.

The Manitowoc County Home Builders Association is a group of well-informed professional individuals that work together to provide well designed, quality constructed, energy efficient homes for families. MCHBA believes that home ownership should be within reach of every family and we know you will find something in the Parade that appeals to you.

As the Manitowoc County Home Builders Association turns 35th this October, I’ve taken a few moments to reflect on changes that have occurred in the building industry. In the past, the builder handled all aspects of building a new home. Now, associate members are critically important

to the build. They work hand in hand with the builders to ensure that all your goals are met or exceeded. Whether its exterior products, windows, roofing, insulation, cabinetry, millwork, painting, flooring or another trade, the MCHBA has a strong group of associated members who have the same dedication to excellence as our builders do.

As you begin the process of building your dream home or remodeling your current home, the first step is to find a professional…a member of the Manitowoc County Home Builders Association. All of our members are dedicated to ensuring that homeowners get the quality and safety they expect when hiring a professional for their custom home or remodel.

They are required to carry general liability insurance and workers compensation insurance.

These policies protect you, the customer, from liability and expense.

Thank you to all of the families that have graciously shared their beautiful homes with us this year.

Without their willingness there wouldn’t be a Parade. Thank you to Braun Building Center and Roffers Concrete Construction for partnering with the MCHBA to produce a high quality event.

Whatever you dream, be it a new home, remodeling, landscaping or a home decorating project; we encourage you to look to a Manitowoc County Home Builders Association member. Go online at www. manitowoccountyhomebuilders. com or contact the office at 684-6222 for a free Membership Directory.

We sincerely hope you enjoy our 2014 Parade of Homes!

Manitowoc Parade of Homes

What It Takes To Be A

Home Builder

By Dan Schneider, President Manitowoc County Home Builders Association

Today’s new homes reflect changing market preferences and integrate elaborate designs and consumer desires into the floor plans and construction of the homes. And successful home builders have the knowledge, organizational skills and drive to build them.

But what does it really take to build a house?

Like a CEO, a home builder relies on a number of workers to get the job done right. A home builder guides dozens of skilled artisans and professionals, including carpenters, architects, engineers, plumbers, electricians, painters and landscapers. The builder must understand all of the home’s complex systems

and know enough about each contractor’s trade in order to coordinate this skilled team to build and sell a quality product.

Some home builders develop the land on which the homes are built. In this capacity, they act as the land surveyor. They look at a piece of land to determine whether it complies with zoning regulations, local planning laws and environmental restrictions, and whether it is suitable for development.

Home builders serve as liaisons with their communities and local government officials. They research and study local building codes to determine what can be built in a given location. In most localities, building codes govern building, plumbing, heating and air conditioning, electrical systems and fire safety. After studying the building codes, the builder collects all the required permits from the carious authorities before proceeding

September 2014 • herald times reporter • Lakeshore chronicle 5

with constructions.

Once the permits are obtained, the builder will prepare the site and select how the home will be situated on it. The home builder then oversees the entire construction process, which includes-but is certainly not limited to-laying the foundation; erecting the framing, roofing and siding; building the walls; and installing the plumbing, heating and electrical work.

A home builder acts as an inspector. The local building department will inspect the construction site for code violations throughout the home’s construction. But a professional home builder will make certain the home meets both code and warranty guidelines long before and after the officials show up.

Professional home builder’s strive to deliver a home that will make their customers happy. To meet this objective, they act as public relations professionals.

The builder will discuss the construction process and

building schedule with the buyer, and plan times when the buyer can tour the building site and ask questions about the status of their new home.

Home builders are also businesspeople who establish a network of reliable and quality materials suppliers and trade contactors with whom they conduct business on a regular basis.

Home builders are scheduler and record keepers. They must think on their feet and keep complex construction timelines in order to keep the construction process moving forward.

All in all, home builders must wear many, many hats in order to deliver a home where the new owners can hang their own hats, raise a family and build lifelong memories.

To learn more about the home building process or to find a home builder in Manitowoc County, contact Manitowoc County Home Builders Association at 920-684-6222.

Design Trends for 2014 & Beyond

The National Association of Home Builders recently announced the winners of the Best in American Living Awards – a prestigious award program that spotlights design excellence for the entire residential building industry.

Award recipients represent the forefront of innovative design in America, and are lauded as the most creative and inventive builders, remodelers, architects, developers, land planners and interior designers in the nation.

Based on submissions from this

year’s crop of winners, some of the newest trends in design that home buyers will see over the next several years include:

White on White

Cabinets, flooring, backsplashes, counters, fixtures and appliances are beginning to lighten up.

Layering white on top of white is a new approach in many kitchens and bathrooms that is giving way to a fresh and light feeling. To achieve clean lines and a modern feel, designers and builders are selecting European cabinetry, adding shiny surfaces via appliance, backsplash and countertop choices, and incorporating glass walls.

Bold Exterior Colors

Bold colors are making their way to the exterior of homes.

Whether it’s through paint, a mix of cladding materials, doors, windows, porches, shutters or trim, an extra layer of drama is being adding to the design of elevations, further enhancing curb

appeal.

Interior Courtyards

Interior courtyards are popular in all housing types right now. The primary difference is scale. Within single-family homes, courtyards provide private and safe outdoor living areas and are being shifted to side yards.

Specialty Lighting

Specialty fixtures are “lighting it up” this year. Regardless of whether it involves a custom or a stock fixture, designers are finding ways to showcase them as pieces of art rather than just a functional element. Lighting is being paired with wood ceiling details to further enhance the room’s design and create a feeling of warmth.

Historic Style with Modern Flair

New or remodeled homes, whether they are Craftsman, Prairie, Mid-Century Modern or another historic architectural

style, are adding modern flair to their traditional designs through color, finish, fixture and lighting selection, while continuing to be influenced by the past through the use of reclaimed building materials and classic proportions and detailing.

Blurring the Lines Between Inside and Out

Lines continue to be blurred between the inside and outside of homes. No longer limited to areas with warmer climates, this is being seen all across the country. More homes now feature moveable glass walls, gourmet outdoor kitchens and interior courtyard pools, adding more everyday living space.

To find an industry professional ready to bring these exciting new trends to your new home or remodeling project, contact the Manitowoc County Home Builders Association or visit the National Association of Home Builders at www.nahb.org.
