Capehart Homes

Capehart Housing refers to military family housing built under the Capehart Act of 1955. These projects were typically standardized, post-war residential developments on military bases, and often require comprehensive modernization to meet current standards.

Curb Appeal

A term referring to the visual attractiveness of a property as seen from the street. Enhancing curb appeal involves exterior improvements such as new finishes, landscaping, and architectural details to create a positive first impression.

Energy Efficiency

The practice of using less energy to provide the same level of service, or reducing overall energy consumption. In construction, this is achieved through upgrades like modern HVAC, better insulation, and efficient windows.

HVAC Systems

Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning (HVAC) systems are core mechanical components that regulate the internal environment of a building by controlling temperature, humidity, and air quality, crucial for occupant comfort and health.

Privacy Fencing

A barrier erected to visually screen private outdoor areas (like backyards or patios) from public view or adjacent properties. It enhances resident comfort by defining personal space and providing seclusion.
