When my husband and I purchased our home in Lincoln, Nebraska, it was the perfect size for the two of us.
- Since we were just getting started in our careers and still paying off college loans, it was a relief to deal with a very low mortgage.
By the time we paid off our house, we’d added four kids and a pair of dogs to the household. Our little house was far too cramped to accommodate all of us. We planned an addition that would more than double our square footage. A new construction project of that magnitude required the assistance of a professional company. We found a local operation that is well-established, licensed and insured. There are examples of their work throughout the local community in Lincoln, and all of their customer reviews were positive. Their assistance proved invaluable throughout each stage of new construction. My husband and I had no clue how to design an addition. We wanted to make sure that the new structure blended into the overall look of the home. Our priorities included charming curb appeal, plenty of closet space, two full bathrooms, four bedrooms, a play room and lots of windows to open up the view. Plus, energy efficiency was important. With the severe summer and winter weather in Lincoln, we require both cooling and heating. Temperature control is a considerable drain on the budget. We looked to the construction contractors to help us determine the proper style and sizing of the HVAC system. They also ensure adequate insulation and ventilation. From managing the electrical system and plumbing to the vents, thermostat and light fixtures, every detail meets our specifications and needs. While the new construction project was disruptive, expensive, messy, noisy and lengthy, we are delighted with the end result.
