thank you for all your hard work and dedication

We know we’ve told you before how much we love the community we’re located in, but we also love the people we work with. We realize that we have so much to be thankful for and our subcontractors are a big part of that. Nearly all of our subs have been with us over 5 years and some have been with us since the beginning. It is because of the talent that lies in these individuals that we can build the kind of homes we build. We’re proud of our subs and we’re proud to say that they have all dedicated their lives to their professions and they have chosen us to work with.


So how long have they been with us?

we'd like to introduce...

We have something we'd like to share with you! We're always trying to find new homes that hit a certain price point and wrap the homeowners in a blanket of luxury and comfort that only our homes do. So, since we work with you, we understand what you want and need which brings us to our NEW home plan! In the photos below there are two, second floor plans. The one home plan features three bedrooms and the other four - it all depends on your needs. Maybe you have a big family or you're looking to have one or perhaps you have a smaller family, but want room to grow, maybe you just want to live in an Ashford home - whatever your reason, we hope you love this home as much as we do! (the floor plan with four bedrooms is 1,959 square feet and the three bedroom plan is 1,915 square feet) Interested? Contact us, we'd love to tell you more about it!

you may be green, but is your home?

the idea of living life in a more green manner has become more mainstream in recent years. more people are recycling, driving fuel efficient vehicles and doing what they can do to lessen their carbon footprint. (if you're interested in knowing what your carbon footprint is and how to offset it check out the website carbonfootprint.com and use the calculator)

the building industry is also taking steps to make things more environmentally friendly. we get the magazine Green Builder and while flipping through it this month we found something that we want to share. it is a tool that can benefit builders as well as home owners.

visit the website nahbgreen.org and click on the tab labeled 'green scoring tool'. you'll have to create a user name and password, but it is free and worth it. from there you can go through your home and answer questions to determine the to extent to which your home is green. the site will score your home and say whether it is bronze, silver or gold. we're using it on our homes and you should too!
