Benham Brothers Project
Completed in 2017
First Contact
Our first contact with Jason Benham was when we were building a new home for a customer in the subdivision that Jason lives in. He knew the customers that we were building for and stopped by one day to see the home and to check out the quality of our workmanship. After we met and walked around we discussed his desire to do an addition to his home, we then proceeded to provide him with an estimate, and after several conversations and looking at his home, we were hired to proceed with the construction of his addition.
Project Description
This addition involved the expansion of a beautiful master suite to his brick home in a nice established neighborhood. Jason wanted to add a master oasis with a covered porch that would allow him and his wife Tori tranquility as they enjoy their step down sitting area with a beautiful fireplace, a wet bar area, a gorgeous bath, a huge walk-in closet, and a covered porch area with a bed swing for the ultimate outdoor relaxation.
Benham's Project Goals & Challenges
The homeowners were residing in the home throughout the construction of their new addition. They wanted to add some architectural character to the slightly outdated appearance of their brick home and garage. They wanted to remodel 2 bathroom in their home.
Solutions
We had a solid contract price with the Benham’s but after discussing some possible changes they may want to make we decided to go with a cost plus which would enable them to have more flexibility with any changes they wanted to make. We helped them create and design their project and while building the addition to their home we strived to maintain a professional and clean atmosphere for the family as they were living in the residence. The exterior of the home was modernized by painting the brick, adding railings, shutters, and cedar trim. Lastly, the 2 bathroom remodels were renovated when the family was away on vacation, so they were able to come back to the completed project, keeping their family routine without a disturbance. Collin Homes, Inc. strived to ensure the Benham’s an enjoyable and gratifying building process, which would leave them loving their beautiful master suite addition and bathroom remodel.
Werner Residence
Completed in 2016
First Contact
While building our own craftsman style home, the customer showed up at the job site to speak to us about building a home for them, explaining to us that they have been searching for a custom home builder that would work with them on building a craftsman style home on their property. They we excited when walking through our home, admiring the quality of the construction.
Project Description
Build a 465 square foot Casita (In-Law home) to be built on the property and then a year later build a 2,400 square foot home, home would consist of 3 bedrooms, 2 ½ baths, formal dining , office, and bonus room, both homes would match in architecture and color.
Werner's Goals & Challenges
Customer had the blueprints designed out of state and they were not to code for Mecklenburg County. Lot was extremely tight for both the Casita and the home. Customers lived in the Casita while the new home was being built.
Solutions
We had our architect and engineer make the necessary changes to meet county requirements. Due to the lot being extremely tight, we needed to make sure the survey was done to the exact inch to make sure both the Casita and the home would fit on the lot properly. We worked with the customers to create and design some aspects of the homes.
Collin Homes strived to ensure that the Warner’s building process was an enjoyable one and that we exceeded their expectations. We worked diligently to complete the building in a timely manner keeping in mind that the customers were residing in the Casita while their home was being built. We strived to maintain integrity and cleanliness to produce a beautiful home that Paul & Tara would love and enjoy.
