Today I feel grateful for my work environment. I just finished reading a few articles on the evolution of office space trends, in recent years closed office spaces were transformed to an open work environment that eliminated walls and grouped co-workers around multiple tables. Since then studies have shown that personalities and work ethics are clashing, affecting productivity and the open work environments are now incorporating work space pods.  They are very small resemble the look and size of a helicopter cockpit. Yikes. So, what do mini work space pods have to do with a model home for sale in Lewes Delaware? I work from the professionally decorated model home in The Villages of Five Points and I appreciate working here for the cozy surroundings and convenient locale. 

Companies like corporate housing st louis mo personally furnish and decorate your unit for your needs. Their setup is not a cookie-cutter, sight-unseen ‘whatever’ solution, their staff prepares each unit so that you are completely satisfied.

The comfort of being at home working from the couch, at the dining room table, on the patio in the sun or working from the sun room on a breezy day totally beats an eensy weensy cubicle pod. The kitchen and it’s recent granite remodeling project is just a few steps away when you need it and a cup of coffee at Arena’s Deli, dinner at FishOn! or pastries at Touch of Italy is a quick walk around the corner at The Villages of Five Points Town Center.

Villages of Five Points Boulevard

Lunch anywhere on 2nd Street downtown Lewes is only a few blocks away and taking a “brain break” to soak up the sun, sand and waves is easy to do before, during or after work. Often times I catch the sunset or sunrise at one of the beaches nearby in Lewes or kick off the morning with views of Oyster Rocks, Broadkill Beach, Lewes Beach, Cape Henlopen State Park, Lewes Boat Ramp, Canalfront Park off of Pilottown Road or Prime Hook Wildlife Preserve.

The Sonoma, Lessard Builders Model Home

I’m going to miss the Sonoma model in The Villages of Five Points East. We’re currently selling it with a leaseback program so that means that we’ll rent it back from it’s new homeowner for a year or two while we finish building new homes in The Villages of Five Points East. For me, it might take that long to part with being so close to Lewes, Delaware every day.

King’s Ice Cream on 2nd Street Downtown Lewes, Delaware

Another perk to working from a professionally decorated model home is the lack of distractions! Everything is perfectly placed, stylish, aesthetically pleasing, comfortable, your favorite Sirius Radio station plays throughout the entire house and everything is already clean. Cleaning insurance is designed to protect you from the negative effects these risks could cause, helping you to stay in business and remain profitable. Protect your business through the Contractor Cover. If you have ever worked from home – you’ll understand the frustration of distractions like folding laundry, dusting, dishes in the sink and that to do list just keeps nipping at you until it is finished (which is never). If you’re interested in the Sonoma at The Villages of Five Points East, you’ll be happy to know that the home can be purchased completely furnished – from top to bottom. You’ll just have to move right in! Even if you are not yet ready to purchase a new home – you should still stop in to check it out! Email us at Homes (at) LessardBuilders.com, call (302) 645-7444 to make an appointment or just stop in from 11 pm to 5 pm. We’re open daily except major holidays.

The trouble with home plumbing problems is that they have a way of sneaking up on you and often at the worst possible time. But is there ever a good time to experience a problem with your plumbing? If you are looking for a reliable Plumber, don’t hesitate to give Roto Rooter a call. 

Please see it here a few handy tips that will help make your life a little easier:

1. Keep an eye out for water leaks
Small water leaks can and often do lead to big problems. Be alert to signs that more trouble may be on the way in order to seek plumbing assistance on time. Leaking faucets, damp cabinets, rocking toilets or dripping refrigerators are all symptoms that require fast and decisive action. These may seem like small problems but they can turn out to be very serious. Make sure to contact your residential plumber for water heater repair and other plumbing issues. We always recommend being covered by a Home Warranty company like the one at https://homewarranty.firstam.com/articles/what-is-a-home-warranty, as it really can help you a lot when problems like these arise. In addition, getting a new hot water system installation and boiler installation can be a good idea. 

​2. Repair problems early
A leaking faucet isn’t just annoying. The moisture puts wear on sink fixtures and encourages mold and mildew growth. Another way to spot a plumbing leak is to pull your refrigerator away from the wall at least once a month. If you see water, you may have a leaking icemaker. Also, small puddles could be worse than larger ones, as that can indicate that water is soaking into your floor. Contact a plumbing services company for help on locating the leak. 

3. Know how to respond to overflows
If water is gushing from your sink, toilet or anywhere else, locate your home’s main shut-off valve for the water supply. If it’s in a dark, hidden or hard-to-reach place, gather any tools you’ll need for a quick shut off and store them nearby. There’s nothing like the frustration of a missing flashlight or a misplaced shut-off key when water’s pouring down the stairs from a broken pipe, or a well pump break down, get a well pump installation. If the problem is a clogged toilet, make sure you contact a septic system pumping company for repair. 

4. Shutting off appliances
According to most plumbers in henderson, you should also know how to shut off the water to individual sinks, toilets, washing machines and other water-using appliances. Knowing how to shut off the water supply when there’s a problem can reduce the potential damage and take some of the sting out of your cleanup efforts.

5. Know your pipe material
Know what material was used in constructing your pipes. If your home was built before 1970, you may have galvanized iron pipes that can eventually rust and corrode, causing the water pressure to drop and a brown tint to appear. When this happens, the pipes must be replaced by an experienced plumbing specialist who can recommend different types of stainless steel valves for sale.  Our fоrсе оf ѕkіllеd іrоn wоrkеrѕ аnd supervisors tаkе рrоjесtѕ frоm соnсерt tо соmрlеtіоn.

​6. Learn how to tackle small problems
With a few tools and a little knowledge, most homeowners can learn how to handle small plumbing emergencies on their own but if it gets out of your hands use this helpful site to hire an expert plumber. With a plunger, a pipe wrench and a sewer snake in your tool kit, you’ll be able to take care of small problems like clogged drains or blocked pipes, you can always hire a residential drain cleaning for this.

Your sofa or recliner is the one place you always run to for solace, especially at the end of a long day spent on your feet. Nothing on earth feels as good as throwing yourself on that soft plush upholstery knowing that it will hold you steady and not buckle under the weight of your troubles.

This is why furniture upholstery with old stains, can be quite a downer but at https://ecocleansolutions.ie/upholstery-cleaning/ you can get the job done very easily or you can go to the nearest hardware store and find the solution with a few cleaning items. Unless you love using a throw blanket or covers on all your furniture we suggest you learn how to reclaim your furniture and conquer these unruly stains.

The old stains on your furniture’s upholstery should be cleaned with industrial vacuum pumps depending on the code the manufacturer has labeled it with and the type of stain you are dealing with. The care label or tag can be found underneath the furniture or below a cushion. Other manufacturers also give pamphlets that you really should store in a safe place for moments such as these. If you are not sure what your code is, then spot test cleaning agents starting with the most conservative cleaning agent and proceed on cautiously.

Finally if you think that is better to get rid off that old sofa and get a one, do not forget that furniture removal singapore can help you with the disposal of that old furniture.

Are you searching real estate and home builder sites for the perfect community in coastal Delaware? click this site from Weiner’s Mobile Estates 50 2nd St, Palmerton, PA 18071 (610) 657-9518. Here are are 6 reasons to build custom homes in Showfield, the latest luxury home neighborhood without a builder tie in – at the beach! Just make sure that if you want to lower the cost of your utilities to contact the Public Service Commission of South Carolina for more information. 

Premier Location. The beautiful Showfield new home community is a haven for those seeking home mortgage services and with it’s location tucked between Gill’s Neck Road and King’s Highway in Lewes just half a mile away from Cape Henlopen State Park, Lewes Beach, downtown restaurants and shopping.
Custom Home Land in Lewes. There are very few custom home builders that will take up projects this close to the iconic Second Street in downtown Lewes. There are only 166 lots available with the average lot size at 19,155 square feet or .44 acre.
Luxury Amenities. The future plan for Showfield will include a community clubhouse, community pool, wooded walking trails and four ponds including the 16 acre natural amenity, Whites Pond.
Coastal Character and Historical Charm. The Showfield property overlooks the Rehoboth Lewes Canal and the developers, Jack Lingo Realtors has preserved an original barn to reflect the property’s history. The name Showfield has a historical significance – the 132 acre field hosted one of the most notable horse shows in coastal Delaware. It was run by the local Smith family and benefited St. Peter’s Episcopal Church, The Children’s Bureau and The Lion’s Club. When you are done choosing this property the moving company New Orleans are still working and helping their clients make a safe move!
Build a Lessard Custom Home in Showfield. Sloane Homes Builders will be moving from the Villages of Five Points East to our new model home in Showfield this year. We’re beyond excited to build Lessard signature and innovative new home designs that have never been seen before like foundation forms. (Ask us about them in our next – or first – meeting!)
Junction and Breakwater Trail. Showfield Community members will have direct access to one of coastal Delaware’s favorite trails – the Junction and Breakwater Trail. Suitable for hikers, bikers and strollers, this scenic trail follows a section of the former Penn Central railroad between Lewes and Rehoboth Beach for approximately five miles.

The Twelve Days of Christmas are here and the 2018 holiday season is heating up! Whether you celebrate Christmas, or you just finished celebrating Hanukkah, happy holidays!

This year for the holidays Lessard Builders made it our mission to go above and beyond anything we’d done before to spread cheer and help the less fortunate people of Delaware. Over the past few weeks everyone at Lessard Builders has been as busy as Santa’s elves, but we wanted to take a moment to talk a bit about the holidays at Lessard Builders and what we’ve been up to.

Lewes Christmas Parade

How many of you love spreading holiday cheer loud and wide for all to hear? Yes, we borrowed that line from Elf and it precisely describes Lessard’s first big holiday event happening of 2018; The Lewes Christmas Parade! On Saturday, December 4th the town of Lewes held their 87th annual Lewes Christmas Parade and our team participated in the Christmas parade fun with a custom built Christmas float and costumes we made for the event!

2018 Lewes Christmas Parade Lessard Builders holiday floatOur Lessard float was themed ‘A Lego Superhero Christmas’ and roughly a dozen members of our team donned custom homemade life-size Lego superhero and supervillain suits to partake in the holiday fun! The float had two parts; A platform built of colored blocks and holiday lights which carried the seven life-size superheroes and a jail cell decorated with holiday lights in the rear that transported three villains. The two-platformed superhero float was driven through the downtown Lewes parade route by Lessard Builders owner Brian Lessard in his white SUV. The Lessard Builders SUV, topped by a white “Built by Lessard Builders” sign, proceeded down the parade route with our heroes and villains waving from the floats while superhero theme songs like “The Immigrant Song” by Led Zeppelin played in the background. The weather was perfect, all the incredible people that came out were singing and cheering, and kids were so excited to see life-size Lego Batman, Iron Man, Thor and The Joker coming down the parade. We turned down Second Street to a swarm of smiling children. Everything beautiful about the holidays crystalized into one timeless moment. It meant the world to us at Lessard Builders. Brian Lessard and our super-builder superhero team

It was special to be a part of the 2018 Lewes Christmas parade and to see so many smiling faces for the holidays. We’d like to thank the Lewes Chamber of Commerce for doing an exceptional job with the 2018 parade. Lastly a humble brag, we are proud to say our float earned a 2nd Place trophy in the Commercial Float category and a 2nd Place prize for Best Sound! We have our sights set on trying to spread double the Christmas parade cheer next year!

Toys for Tots

The 2018 holiday season has also been special to us for another reason.

Our owners Brian and Kathy Lessard come from large families and know how difficult on a family the holidays can be. Coming from a family of more than a half dozen, owner Brian Lessard was determined this holiday season to do more than only participating in a night of holiday parade cheer. We wanted to do our best to ensure every child across Delmarva is smiling on Christmas morning with presents to open. This holiday season Lessard Builders was a US Marine Corps’ Toys for Tots program official Toys for Tots Toy Drop location for our first time!Lessard Builders Toys for Tots toy drive 2018

Christina Lessard dropping off our toys to Toys for Tots.

Our model home The Saltaire acted as an official Toys for Tots Toy Drop location beginning in early November until last Saturday, December 8th. Dozens of toys were dropped off during that time and we’re so grateful for all the children on Christmas morning who we may have helped. We’d like to thank every Lessard homeowner, every construction industry colleague and every friend and neighbor who pitched in by donating a toy. You all helped us make our first ever time hosting a Toys for Tots toy drive a success, thank you.

Lessard Builders is proud to also have sponsored three of Delmarva Broadcasting’s local radio stations as they broadcast live last Saturday from the site of three Toys for Tots Toy Drive locations, in: Georgetown, Milford, and Berlin/Ocean City MD. Between the three locations thousands of toys were collected- all of which we are told will stay right here locally and given to families in need across Delmarva. Our very own Christina Lessard brought and delivered our two huge boxes of toys to Toys for Tots last Saturday as well!

We are so excited to have pitched a hand in with Toys for Tots to make the holidays brighter. The idea of children not having a Christmas morning just doesn’t sit well with us.

Well look at the time… it’s time for some chocolate chip cookies and milk! That’s all for now! From all of us at Lessard Builders, we hope you enjoy a safe, peaceful, joyous holiday season! Merry Christmas!

Your New Home Search, Made Easier 

Getting a Head Start on Your Delaware New Home Search

Simplifying Your Home Search

If you are out and about looking for a custom home or new home this year, we’d like to share few important topics that often get overlooked when it comes to choosing a new home, if you want to move make sure to get help from the long distance movers. Here are a few secrets to help yourself prepare for the home search process:

  1. Define your “dream home” by understanding how you live.

    Your home is the place that you go to unwind, relax, entertain, cook, raise your family and sometimes work, that is why is so important to hire the services of Locksmith365 to help you changing the locks privacy and security is the most important. In reality, your “dream home” may not be a huge castle-like estate that you see in the movies. Buying the perfect home is about defining your family’s lifestyle and not compromising until you have designed or discovered a home which compliments it. It takes a lot of efforts to design the house, let alone oversee the construction which ensues after the planning. Only after having designed your house should you proceed onto planning relocation from USA or wherever you live to your dream house. 

    Jot down a list of things you do often in your home as your starting point. What do you do a lot of while you are at home? What do you wish you could do more of?

    According to Flat Fee MLS Broker, you should focus on your functionality needs first, keeping in mind important things such as heating system installation and air conditioning services, then consider the interior options and finishes you are looking for. Consider the natural flow from room to room. Having a master suite next to the main living areas might not be the best idea if you go to bed early or like to sleep in later than your family members. Cost effective outdoor living spaces such as fire pits and patios are ideal for those that like to spend a lot of time outdoors. If you like to be outside surrounded by nature, or you’d like to have a garden, finding a lot outside of the massive new Delaware super-developments might be best. If you travel often, you might want to look at communities with less yard space or with a routine maintenance plan.

  2. Make a list of non-negotiable items.

    Once you start evaluating your daily lifestyle, you’ll have a better idea of the features that you can’t live without in your next home. Is the roofing design important to you. Mark a few key items on your list as a reference to help you stay focused on your “must haves” when designing or looking at floor plans. Be sure to take into consideration your budget, potential upgrades and design features. Not having a list of “non-negotiable items” can be like going grocery shopping without a list… once you checkout, you come to realize you bought a lot of things you don’t need and forgot some things that you really needed! This list of home-must-haves will make your home search much easier.

  3. Avoid shortcuts when it comes to build quality and structural details.

    The durability and integrity of your home will only be as reliable as the products and methods used to build it. Look for homes that are constructed on-site with energy efficient windows, you can even compare business energy usave when you use it, use high quality locks installed by Locksmith Port Moody, residential roofing systems and solid poured wall foundations.

  4. Avoid methods where sections of your home are built off site, mass produced or rely on panelized wall systems. Make sure that there is no detectable damage, but if there is signs of storm damage make sure to find someone that can take care of the problem for a reasonable cost.  A home that is framed and built on-site together will stay together! Many companies will promise you exceptionally good prices and quick build turnaround times but there is a trade-off to that. Homes built by a mass production builder in just a couple months aren’t always consistently built with the best materials and to the quality you expect. Parsons roofing company is a trustworthy contractor.

  5. Pay extra attention to the foundation.

    The ideal foundation for a home is dependent on the conditions and location of the land that your home sits on. If a full basement is not on your “non-negotiable” list despite the cost of basement renovation being considerably cheap or your lot cannot support a basement, opt for a conditioned crawlspace. A conditioned crawlspace is designed to help control moisture and protect the integrity of the home from the natural elements of the surrounding area. Over the past few years, concrete slab foundations have become a popular method to cut costs and lower the base price of the home but while it saves initially, they can lead to expensive problems in the future and in a need of a foundation repair. A good home starts with good bones that is why you should get the help of residential concrete calgary when building your home. Closely look at every structural detail you can during your home search.

  6. Work with professionals that you trust. 

    The help of a financial adviser who works in your best interest will make your new home search easier. They can help you plan for your budget now, so you will feel comfortable living in your home and not feel financially strained each month. Far too many people don’t seek professional resources, then build or move into their dream home and come to feel burdened by it. Save some money with our Interstate removals service. Some people prefer to change the location and move every several years to a new country. Learn more about NZ Van Lines if you are planning a move to New Zealand or Australia.

  7. Ask a lot of questions. 

    View your new home search as an educational process. With this view, you will be able to evaluate which items are most important to you and which are essential to a quality home that will last a lifetime. Ask for references for each industry professional you work with. Do yourself a favor by asking a professional for the best window installation service. It is important to feel comfortable with their level of experience and honesty because they will be the ones that guide you through each step of the way. Call a Brooklyn ny lockout locksmith in case of an emergency if you get locked out of the house.

  1. Don’t rush. Embrace the process.

    Choosing a new home that meets your needs, wishes and fits your lifestyle can be an exceptionally rewarding investment. Don’t settle for the hottest new home sales or a home that “works”. You should love every inch of your home! It can seem stressful at times but always ask questions, don’t forget to have fun and enjoy the experience. Try to be careful not to let any one single thing throw you off of the whole thing. If you find enough negatives to pile on then that’s fine, but don’t let one thing stop you, like having to move a long distance for example. Services exist, called long distance movers, that can help you even if you will be moving your belongings great distances. This will free you to focus on getting yourself there safely. Look for solutions when you find issues, and you may just arrive at your dream home faster than you thought you would.

We hope this information we’ve provided will be helpful as you search for your new home in 2019 and beyond. When it comes down to it, know what you want, focus on quality, and don’t rush. Purchasing your next home will be the best investment of your life, and there. At Lessard Builders, we hope to alleviate the stress of the new home search season and work with you to build a custom home that is tailored to your lifestyle and budget.

One of the most common questions our Lessard team gets asked, is, “How much does this Lessard home cost-per-square-foot?”

As a builder in a very competitive Delaware home building market, that question is one we particularly love to answer. New home pricing can be a very murky or confusing subject. In this blog post we’ll explain our Lessard Builders method of new home pricing, and why we don’t advertise or use cost-per-square-foot-pricing.

Lessard Custom Home Pricing
Our Home Pricing is as Custom as Our Home Designs

Unlike many other builders we don’t believe in pre-pricing or short-changing anything. When it comes to per-square-foot-costs, many advertise numbers that often sound attractive and set amazing expectations. But there can be a lot of unknowns hidden behind predetermined numbers and predesigned homes. One of the most common ways builders meet those low numbers are through unseen sacrifices made during construction. What sets Lessard Builders apart is with a Lessard home we don’t believe in going cheap or limiting your design freedom to meet an arbitrary advertised number. Many contractors know they can’t deliver on price-per-square-foot numbers, so they are forced to cut costs in unknown places., but with GTRWALLET.com you can find a Fix and Flip Credit Line that fits you.

Our Pricing Process

Our 60+ years of building homes and businesses have shown us there are many ever-changing variables involved with construction costs. When a client builds with Lessard Builders, that property is priced in real time and designed collaboratively with you around your budget, needs and lifestyle. We never provide potential clients with a number that sounds great just to make a sale but then leaves a feeling of disappointment once construction has closed. Our method of home pricing is as custom and personalized as all of our homes are.

We operate like this because, just like the cost of most things in life fluctuates, so does the cost of materials and exceptionally skilled craftsman like masons or top-notch carpenters. Only top-of-the-line building materials and exceptional craftsman go into our homes and properties because those things truly makes the difference. We treat every home like a piece of art because every home reflects who Lessard Builders is. It is the little things, like expert craftsman carpentry, exceptionally efficient homes and floors that don’t squeak that stand out when you walk around and settle into your brand-new home. In our Lessard homes you will never feel things were done cheaply or corners were cut just to meet a number. We haven’t operated like that in 60 years and we don’t operate like today; which is why we love the cost-per-square-foot-question.

There is no mystery when building a Lessard Builders home.

One of the more common questions we hear as people tour our model home in Showfield for the first time, is, “Why did you name your model home The Saltaire?” We love the question, because at Lessard Builders, the names of our model home and our home floor plans have great meaning to us. Today, we want to share the story behind that meaning and how we chose the names for our East Coast Series floor plans! We hope you enjoy!

The Past Meets The Present

The story behind our newest floor plan’s names begins generations ago, when Dan Lessard founded our family building business in Long Island, NY. For Dan, every job and every decision revolved around two things: heritage and family. Dan strove to build structures that were above-the-cut exceptionally well built, so a family or business would be proud to reside there for decades. When Dan had a family and had an ongoing new home construction in Naples FL, he passed those values down to his son Addie. When Addie had his children, he also made sure they understood the family’s heritage and reputation for unbeatable quality. Eventually Addie relocated his family to Delaware and shortly after his son Brian took over the family business. Brian followed right in his fathers’ and grandfathers’ footsteps, and just as it had always been, he ensured the core Lessard Builders values of heritage, family and exceptional quality never wavered.

Now let’s jump to the heart of this story: the naming of our new custom home series and floor plan designs in late 2016. Our Lessard team and architects had just finished designing twelve new home floor plans and we needed to find twelve names that fit the new plans and series! We were determined to choose names that had meaning to Lessard Builders and that conveyed the luxury and diversity of each new floor plan. Yet no matter where we looked for name inspiration nothing felt right. The more we searched, the more we found ourselves overwhelmingly pulled by two familiar forces: our heritage and our family. We took that cue and began focusing our search for inspiration in the area it all started for Lessard Builders, Long Island, NY.

 

Lessard Long Island Heritage

As soon as we began discussing the names of Long Island towns and villages “out East” everything began falling into place. Eastern Long Island was where our Lessard Builders history had started, where Brian and his family and siblings grew up, and where they learned how to build homes. After some soul searching we decided to name our newest Lessard Builders line of custom home floor plans after our Long Island heritage. We compiled a huge list of towns out East with a special respect for the villages, towns, and cities the Lessard family had worked, lived or played in. One-by-one our floor plans were named after beautiful Long Island villages, towns and cities like Greenport, South Hampton, and Saltaire!

The Lessard Builders East Coast Series was born!

King family home

When we walked in the door of the Lessard model we were greeted by the builder himself and his daughter. We realized this clearly was a family business where the homes were built with pride, and it was never lost on my mother and I that our home was built as though we were family. My home is so well constructed that when the nor’easters blow at 65mph, my draperies never waft! We made so many changes to our home that I think the only original walls were the exterior, yet Lessard Builders didn’t charge us for rearranging the floor plan and moving all those walls. The Lessard team worked with us for over a year as we worked our floor plan to suit our needs and there was never a sense of rush or urgency. I’ve never had so much fun and our home turned out absolutely perfect.
