Craftsmanship & Construction
Quality construction is found in the details. Explore insights from Equity Construction Northwest on materials, building methods, foundations, framing, finishes, energy efficiency, moisture management, and the construction decisions that influence how a home looks, performs, and lasts for generations.
The big decisions get most of the attention: floor plan, kitchen, cabinets, flooring. After years of building, I have found that people remember something else. In a Deer Park, Washington custom home, a fireplace mantel was carved so a snapping turtle emerged from the wood. It was not decoration. It belonged to the people who lived there. That kind of detail starts when a builder listens first.
