Find your neighborhood

Just like our homes, the neighborhoods in which we build are not all alike. Your neighborhood should reflect your needs and how you want to live. It's as much a lifestyle choice as your home's floor plan or design.

Here are a few things to consider when looking for a neighborhood:

Are schools a deciding factor?
What do you (and your family) like to do in your spare time?
Where do you work and how do you commute?
Is your home primarily a place for gathering or more like a quiet sanctuary?
What kinds of amenities do you look for in a neighborhood?
How does your family like to spend time together at home?

The Steps to Building Your New Estridge Home

Understanding the process of building a home is important to our homeowners. Knowing the stages of construction will help you to become familiar with all of the steps involved in building your new home.

Step 1 - Plans, permits

Before construction can begin, all preconstruction documentation must be completed and approved. This includes the contract, financing, plans, plot plans, etc. During this time, you will have a team meeting with your Estridge builder and sales consultant to review all documents. Engineering work will be completed, and an application for a permit will be submitted.

Step 2 - Foundation

In this stage, the site will be graded (if not complete already), and forms for the foundation are set in accordance with the approved plot plan. Plumbing and the foundation structure are installed and inspected. Then, the foundation is poured.

Step 3 - Framing

The home begins to take shape. Exterior and interior walls are framed and roof rafters are installed.

Step 4 - Roof/Windows

During this stage the exterior sheathing, roof deck, windows and doors are all installed.

Step 5 - Plumbing, electrical, HVAC

In this stage, the mechanical work of the home is completed. This includes installation of plumbing, HVAC, shingles, electrical, TV/phone/audio and security wiring. Inspections are then conducted for the mechanical work and framing.

Step 6 - Second Inspections

Once the initial inspections are complete, you will meet with your Estridge builder for a pre-drywall review. The house is then insulated and additional inspections are performed. Once this step has been completed, exterior surfaces, such as brickwork, can begin.

Step 7 - Drywall

Once the house has passed all rough-in and insulation inspections, the drywall is hung, taped, sanded and any texture is applied.

Step 8 - Trim/Paint

In this stage, the trim for the wood floors, cabinets, stair parts and interior are all delivered along with all doors. Interior painting takes place.

Step 9 - Tile/Tops

During this stage, all bath and floor tile and hardwood floors are installed, and countertops are delivered and installed.

Step 10 - Landscape and Finish Flooring

In this stage, the plumbing, HVAC and electrical systems are completed. This includes installing faucets, electrical fixtures, switch plates and outlets, and HVAC condensers and grills. Carpet is installed. Driveways and walks are poured and landscape plants and sod are installed. At the end of this stage, appliances are installed.

Step 11 - Your New Home is Complete!

Your home is now complete. Once a thorough final inspection of your new home is completed, a New Home Orientation appointment will be scheduled. At this meeting, your Estridge builder will help to orient you with all of the systems and will review all of the functions and features of your brand new Estridge home.
