Whether you’re building your dream home, or just finishing off your basement for added living area, you may wish to think about using a relatively new product called BluWood. You may have noticed those odd blue studs at your local big box store and wondered (like I did a few years back)…just what the heck are those used for?
There is little that can give you a warm cozy feeling like flames of fire dancing in a beautiful fireplace. A fireplace becomes the focal point in just about any room whether it is mid-July or the dead of winter. Therefore it is safe to say that taking the time to properly plan and design your fireplace is essential.

We’ve all heard the expression; “they aren’t making any more land!” If you are in the market for a cottage, this may be good advice for you to consider. Many people find it difficult to find the right parcel of land. There are many items to consider, location, accessibility, amenities and above all price. Finding that vacant lot, on a secluded lake, accessible to Hwy400 (but without traffic) is a daunting task.
When searching for the right Builder, make sure you are considering all aspects of the project. Your Builder needs to have excellent hands on experience and knowledge of the local building codes. Interview each Builder to ensure they have a solid base of reputable sub-trades and suppliers that will be doing the work on your home. Ask questions related to other aspects of the building process, including financing, warranties, interior design, land purchase options, payment terms, etc. A good Builder will be well rounded and knowledgeable in all of these aspects.

There are more than 110 million websites on the web and there are a lot of interesting things that can be done online. There are even a few that can be productive… Did you know that you can build your home online?

Most new home owners cringe every time they hear the words “development charges.” Everyone knows they are expensive, yet necessary, and there is no way around them. Development Charges are paid to the municipality in which you are building your new home. Development charges are collected from new home buyers to cover the costs of infrastructure upgrades within the community. They are typically due upon release of the building permit. Development charges can vary significantly between municipalities.
