GuardFoam ® Insulation with UltraFitDS ® PLUS insulation creates a virtual air barrier envelope on the exterior walls.

New construction or retrofitting your existing home, insulation is more significant than you think.

NEW CONSTRUCTION: Nearly 50% of all wall cavities in today’s homes contain some type of obstruction (i.e. wiring, pipes, electrical boxes, etc.) along with non-standard framing in width and height. In response to these construction methods, Guardian Fiberglass Insulation developed the UltraFitDS® PLUS Spray-On Insulation System. Combined with GuardFoam® 55 spray insulation a virtual air barrier envelope is created on the exterior walls, keeping unwanted air infiltration out of your home and reducing energy costs*.

RETROFITTING: The easiest and the most important area of a house to insulate is the attic.

This is where your investment will pay off the most. According to the U.S. Department of Energy, an improperly insulated attic may be responsible for up to ½ of your home’s energy loss. By simply insulating your attic with Attic Guard® PLUS to the recommended R-value, you guard against unwanted heat loss or gain as well as save significantly on energy bills*.

Attic Guard PLUS is the perfect way to insulate any attic space; whether it’s new construction or retrofit. It is a premium loose-fill fiberglass insulation that installs easily and quickly for improved comfort in next to no time. Its white appearance and consistent coverage make Attic Guard PLUS a very attractive product for the attic.

Build the Deck of Your Dreams!

A deck is a popular home improvement that adds to the value of your home and gives you a focal point for enjoying the outdoors. As several elements go into your deck, many factors need to be considered when choosing the materials.

Builders Supply Company and TimberTech can guide you through the process.

The biggest consideration when designing your dream deck is determining the use and traffic your new outdoor living space will receive. This will help you plan your deck size and the types of decking materials you should use, including accessories such as railing, lighting and gates.

Some of the most important questions and considerations to factor in when planning your deck that will help you simplify the process and lead you in the right direction are: Will children or pets spend time on the deck?

What gate and fencing options are needed?

How often will you use or deck? What is your

entertaining style: big parties, intimate gatherings or a combination of both? You may want ‘rooms’ or levels on your deck for cooking, sitting, or sunning. Do you entertain at night? Consider your lighting options for safety and ambiance. Sun exposure, tree coverage, and privacy issues can be factors in determining your deck size, shape, and location. Are you planning a two story deck? An under-deck drainage system like TimberTech’s DrySpace can transform the space below your deck into a versatile, sheltered leisure or storage space.

The design of your home can dictate the look, color, and materials of your deck planks and accessories. At TimberTech.com, you’ll find support and ideas within our free deck design tool that will help you to plan the deck of your dreams. Learn what decking materials are best for you with our quick quiz, mix and match decking and railing colors with the

Color Visualizer and see other deck designs in the deck photo gallery. Create a free deck design with the online deck designer or visit Decks.com to download a variety of deck plans!

There are many material and color choices available; Builders Supply Company is here to help! Visit our showroom at 5701 S 72nd St. in Omaha, Nebraska, see us online at builderssupplycompany.com, or stop by at this year’s Omaha Home Show, Booth #1019 to get ideas. You’ll be amazed at the endless possibilities that exist to build your deck. If you need help completing your project, visit TimberTech.com to search for a qualified contractor near you to complete your outdoor living dream!

Tangerine Designs Kitchens & Baths A Modern Twist to a Dundee Charmer!

The homeowners wanted to open the kitchen up into the dining area, add seating for grandkids, maintain the window seat, add lots of countertop space and needed a double oven all while maintaining the integrity of this 1915 home. The main obstacles in the space were the plumbing stack and the three doorways.

This kitchen translates into some serious cooking/baking for her, a computer center for him and plenty of seating and fun for grandkids.

This renovated kitchen in Dundee features crisp white cabinetry, solid gray quartz countertops, original red oak flooring and fresh green backsplash tile--bringing this outdated kitchen back to life.

Entry 3

The Kitchen needed updating and the homeowner wanted to expand their Kitchen area out into their backyard. All new tile floor, granite counter tops, knotty alder cabinets, lighted backsplash, and Roger Schuller paint replaced an aging kitchen. Another aspect of the Kitchen was a new hidden pantry. The addition added extra room for the homeowner’s dogs to play including a doggy wash area and all new stamped concrete out into the backyard. This is very possibly the nicest Kitchen job we have ever done.

Apollo Building Corp.

“Can I take out this wall?”

That was the question presented to me by a past home owner who had purchased an Apollo Building Corp. spec villa nearly eight years ago. Since I have a hard time saying “No” to anyone who calls and simply asks for advice I made an appointment to stop over. Once I arrived and we spoke I knew what could and could not be done. I transmitted this information onto my homeowner. Getting ready to leave he asked me, “Would you do this for us?” This caught me by surprise but within an hour we’d come to terms. Eight weeks later we’d completely transformed their villa from one that had distinctive “formal” and “informal” areas (separated by that nasty wall) to one that is now very “open and inviting” and ended up being even better than we’d envisioned it, which totally pleased my customers.

COMPANY DESCRIPTION

Since 1976 Apollo Building Corp. has been adding value to property by being one of Omaha’s premier builders receiving the Better Business Bureau’s Integrity Award and State of Nebraska’s “Builder of the Year” awards. Primarily a custom home and villa builder Apollo has now entered the Remodeling field by giving one of our past customers a complete renovation of the public areas of their home. The same craftsmanship and attention to detail in new home construction which has set us apart for the last 35+ years is now available on a limited basis to select remodeling projects. Contact Terry Ficenec @ 402-502-7411 x 11 for a consultation.
