Yes, We can Build Your Home in Winter
Yes, We can Build Your Home in Winter
October 9, 2020
A common misconception is that builders don’t start new homes during the winter months. Korndoerfer Homes builds year-round, so it is common and customary for our trade partners. In fact, each winter we construct our MBA and RKBA Parade of Homes Models in addition to many customer and ready homes. Wolf Korndoerfer, co-owner of Korndoerfer Homes, has built several residences for himself in the winter as it offers many benefits.
Move in Summer Instead of Winter
One of the biggest advantages to starting your new home in the winter is the ability to move in over the summer. Moving in the summer allows you to take advantage of living in your new home before the new school year begins and to enjoy the Summer/Fall seasons in your new home. A summer move-in date also allows you to install a driveway and landscaping before winter sets in. When you start your home in spring, there will most likely not be time to complete these items in the fall leaving you with a yard full of mud and a gravel driveway until late spring the following year. That makes for a long time to be tracking mud and gravel into your beautiful new home.
Modern Technology
Winter doesn’t mean that you need to wait for your new home. Modern technology has continually improved building products and methods over time. Today’s building materials are engineered to withstand almost any building condition. We use superior Dupont™ Tyvek® HomeWrap®, designed to keep air and water out while letting vapor escape, even before the siding and masonry are installed on the home. Our subfloors are engineered to be self-draining with a notch system and resist moisture absorption. We also utilize a poured basement wall system that is efficiently installed and designed to the highest standards. These are just a few of the things we offer to ensure that we deliver you a quality home.
Take Advantage of the Current Pricing
Waiting to build can cost you more. Each spring, costs of labor and materials tend to increase which drives home builders to adjust prices. By making the decision to build today, you can take advantage of current pricing and the low interest rates.
