What Makes Arbor Gate Properties Different?

When builders use sub-par materials  in a kitchen the finished product tends to be short lived. Here at Arbor Gate we believe that your kitchen should look beautiful and function properly for years to come. We insist on using high quality cabinets and countertops that will be durable and hold up to regular use. Though cabinets may look the same on the outside there is a major difference in build quality between cheap contractor grade cabinets and the solid and sturdy cabinets we use.

Whether it is the beautiful tile work, or unique vanities and sinks, we strive to make our bathrooms a focal point of our houses. When you walk through one of our bathrooms you will notice special touches that you wont readily  find in other ready to move in new homes.

Our longstanding relationships with flooring distributors allow us to use higher quality flooring while still keeping it affordable. We ensure our floors are durable and installed properly to maintain a long life.

In our many years of remodeling and repairing homes we have seen the damage that can occur from poor foundation work. Water is the natural enemy of a home. With the everchanging environment and unprecedented rainfall totals in our area many homeowners find themselves with foundation issues. To remedy this situation we take the time and effort to make sure our foundations are properly graded and waterproofed to keep water diverted away from the home. We use proven experienced methods and high quality materials to provide a solid strong foundation that will save you from costly repairs down the road.

Often overlooked beneath painted walls and beautiful flooring is one of the most important parts of your home: the structure. Here at Arbor Gate Properties we ensure the longevity and strength of our homes by using qualified experienced framers. We don't take the shortcuts all to often found in the building world today. We feel that saving a few dollars is not worth the risk of compromising quality.

The exteriors of our homes have to endure a lot. Changing weather and beating sun can wear on exterior finishes. That is why we use highly rated lifetime architectural shingles and composite siding on our new homes. Whether lap, board and batten, or shake you can be sure that our siding will stand the test of time and look great for years to come.

We have the privilege of working with an excellent company based out of Ohio, who help us bring you energy efficient, high-quality, double-hung vinyl windows. They even come with a transferrable lifetime warranty.

All of our homes are equipped with architectural "lifetime" shingles. This ensures the longest life for your shingled roof. While some builders cut costs by substituting three-tab shingles, we choose to go for longevity, quality, and a warranty we can pass on to our customers.

When building a deck, a contractor has multiple options for framing styles and structural designs. While the building code states a minimum, you will find that merely meeting these requirements will not provide a lasting structure for you and your family to enjoy. We pride ourselves on consistency and going a step beyond the required; after all, one of the most used structures of your home should be built to last.

A simple and commonly overlooked feature of every home is the driveway. You may not notice it when you go house shopping, but having a durable and lasting driveway will keep you pulling in and out of your new home with ease. Whether gravel or concrete, we ensure proper base materials and underlayment. These small steps many contractors overlook can save you from pricey fixes later down the road as natural settling occurs.

Stay warm and toasty or cool and relaxed with a home that won't strain your heating and cooling system. We fully insulate our homes and even seal the gaps around doors and windows with foam. These little touches will keep you in a temperate and efficient environment inside your new home.
