2020 Parade of Homes Chairman

I

am excited you are joining us for the 2020 Parade of Homes presented by the Home Builders & Remodelers Association of Central Connecticut. Like many things this year, the Parade looks a little different as our builders take every precaution to provide a safe event complying with the COVID rules below.

You may be interested in the latest trends in home building and design, looking for the perfect new home to move right into or looking to be inspired for a renovation project. You can find all of that, and much more on the Parade of Homes.

You are invited to step inside and explore a variety of home styles ranging from innovative to elegant, and at prices ranging from the $200,000’s to almost $2 million. We are excited to showcase the latest in new home construction and new communities as well as fully renovated homes.

Plan your daily visits to all the Parade homes by downloading the easy to use Connecticut Parade of Homes mobile app. The app provides easy access to the home details, directions, photos, builder profiles and much more. The app will be your most useful tool before, during and after the tour.

At each home you visit make sure to get your ticket scanned. Each stop is an entry to win valuable raffle prizes – the more Nick Uccello homes you visit, the more chances you have to win. We also want you to take part in the People’s Choice Awards where you get to select your favorite homes and features. You have a chance to win a 65" television if you visit 5 or more homes, and the builders will win too!

On behalf of the Parade of Homes Committee and my fellow builders and remodelers on the Parade, thank you very much for joining us and seeing the latest in-home design in Connecticut. I would also like to thank our presenting sponsors Connecticut Lighting Centers, and James Hardie Building Products. I hope you are inspired for your next home or home improvement project.

Thank you, Nick Uccello, Uccello Development 2020 Parade of Home Chairman

Jack Kemper Kemper Associates Architects LLC 860.409.7155 kemperarch.com Located in the historic center of Unionville, this Greek Revival style residence was originally constructed in 1868. It has been revised and added onto numerous times over its life. The currant owners have re-imaged this house in 3 phases. The first phase consisted of structural, mechanical, and electrical upgrades to bring the house to current standards. Originally 3 separate rooms, the present kitchen and living room are combined into one

space. The kitchen is designed to have a “furniture� feel to blend more comfortably with the living area. The wood siding was repaired and painted, and the front porch was rebuilt to preserve the integrity of the architecture.

The second phase consists of a new 3 car garage/barn that replaces a dilapidated 1 car garage. The new garage retains the original barn door facing the street, while providing modern garage doors on the side for everyday use. This space was designed to accommodate 2 car liftsmaking it possible to store 5 vehicles. The garage was sited to leave the largest view possible of the back yard on this narrow lot.

The third phase consists of the replacement of the previous kitchen wing with a new den and a PARADE OF HOMES | 20

new master bath plus walk in closet on the second floor. This new space sits on a new foundation 2 steps below the main floor- providing a 10-foot-tall ceiling in the den.

The finished house has 2469 square feet of living area with 3 bedrooms and 2 and a half baths.

This project is designed by Kemper Associates Architects of Farmington, Connecticut and built

by Atkinson Associates of Unionville, Connecticut.

Checklist for Finding and Hiring a Builder or Remodeler Use this checklist to help you select a home builder or home remodeler to work on or build your home.

• Contact the Home Builders & Remodelers Association of Central Connecticut for the names of member builders and remodelers. Search our members at hbracentralct.com. You can also ask family, friends or coworkers for recommendations.

• Make sure the builder or home remodeler has a permanent business location and a good reputation with local banks and suppliers.

• Find out how long they have been in the building business. It usually takes three to five years to establish a financially sound business. You want to make sure they will be around after the construction is complete to service any warranties.

won’t, beware. If they do, ask the customers if they would hire the builder/remodeler again.

• Ask if you can see the builder/ remodelers work, both completed and in progress.

Check for quality of workmanship and materials.

• Do you feel you can easily communicate with the builder/ remodeler? Remember you will be in close contact with them throughout the construction process and afterward as you live in your new home.

• Make sure the builder/remodeler provides you with a complete and clearly written contract. The contract will benefit both of you.

If you are having a new home

• Check out the company’s rating and if there have been any complaints filed with your local Better Business Bureau: bbb.org.

• Make sure the builder/remodeler has sufficient workers compensation and general liability insurance. If not, you may be liable for any construction-related accidents on your premises.

• Ask the builder/remodeler to provide you with names of previous customers. If they

PARADE OF HOMES | 46

built, get and review a copy of the home warranty and homeowner manual as well.

• Be cautious of unusually low-priced bids. If the builder/ remodeler is unable to pay for the materials and labor as the project proceeds, this may indicate a potential problem.

Keep in mind that less expensive does not necessarily mean better!

• Verify that your remodeler is an EPA Lead-Safe Certified Renovator if you are planning work in a pre-1978 home that will disturb more than six square feet of painted surfaces inside the home or 20 square feet on the exterior of the home.
