The Sheldon will be closed this weekend. To all the Father's out there, we hope you have a fantastic Father's Day!

The Starling is going to boast one beautiful kitchen. We all know that the kitchen is the heart of the home and no matter what, people always tend to gather in the kitchen during family functions (no matter how many times we try to shoo them out). To the left is a 3D rendering of what the kitchen will look like. There is plenty of cabinets, deep drawers to the side of the stove (perfect for your pots and pans) and a beautiful span of countertop space! We've listened to you, our customers, when you told us that you missed kitchen spaces with islands. We've used some modern touches with the island, which can seat 3 people around it and has cabinets for extra storage. If you are a wine lover, consider building this island with a wine fridge and glass storage underneath. 

As you can see, this open concept kitchen will allow for a kitchen table with large seating capacities. No longer is the cook of the house segregated while cooking during the holidays! And hey, maybe since the family can see what you are doing, you might even get offered some help! 

We will be updating the Starling as we move along in the process. Expect to see a photo of the kitchen cabinets and countertops soon! 

 In observance of Memorial Day, our office will be closed on Monday, May 27th. We'd like to thank those who serve or have served in our nations military. For your services and your sacrifice, we Thank You.

Building your dream home comes with a lot of questions. When talking with builders, ask to see a list of what is included for your base price when you build. Then compare builder to builder. While one may be less of a base price, they may not include everything that another builder does and then really won't be less when all is said in done. We'd also suggest asking if permits are included in the base price. Those can be costly and dealing with those offices can be quite frustrating. Our standard features are what we include when we build your house. We are a turn key construction, so when you are done and handed the keys, you can live in your new house! Download our Standard Features and see for yourself! 

From our family to yours, we wish you a Happy Easter! 

Our model home will be closed this weekend in observance of the holiday and will reopen Monday at 3pm. 

There are a LOT of questions when you build a house ( even if you have built one before!). Every builder has their own process that their clients go through. Here at Joe Koch Construction, we try to make that process as easy for our clients as possible. Read on to find out more on our process!

So you've graduated college, you've gotten the job, gotten married and now you are ready for the next step in being an Adult; Home Ownership. It is a rather scary step (one that I've just started the process on). There are a thousand questions to sift through and even twice as many opinions. However, our friends at This Old House have a great little article about the "47 Skills You Need to Survive Home Ownership". Most of these are great tips and definitely handy skills to learn. Whether you decide to build your own home or buy pre-owned, knowing how to unclog a drain or get a stripped screw out will come in handy someday. Read it and then bookmark it for later (and when the article saves you some money on calling that plumber, you can thank us later!)
