Top 10 Reasons to Buy New with Bigelow
- Personalized Design: With the ability to customize
the size, number, and presence of distinct rooms, new homes are designed
to meet your family’s needs and current lifestyle.
- Safer Homes: New homes are built to the Minnesota
State Building Code. The code is updated every few years to insure that
new homes continually improve in terms of safety from year to year.
- More Insulation: By using 2x6 walls, with better
and more insulation, new homes include the latest technology for energy
efficiency. Featuring R-40 insulation in the attic as well as sealed
air barriers throughout the house, new homes offer increased temperature
control.
- Less Air and Water Infiltration: With exteriors
wrapped in housewrap, new homes have a reduced level of air infiltration.
Housewrap is also integrated into the flashing around each penetration
point of the house, which prevents damage caused by moisture to the home.
- Windows and Doors: New homes built by Bigelow feature
Andersen Windows – The beautiful way to save energy. High performance
glass, such as that used in Andersen Windows, provides benefits beyond
dual-pane glass and can reduce energy bills up to 25%. Fiberglass door
systems offer five times the insulation value of a wood door and won’t
rot, crack, or split like real wood.
- Siding: Low maintenance and maintenance free Vinyl,
Steel, and Cement Fiber sidings encasing new homes offer durability,
exceptional weather resistance, and a heightened curb appeal through
personalized color schemes.
- Engineered Wood: Floor and wall sheathing, along
with I-Joists and laminated beams, provide an increased strength in the
soundness of new homes. Engineered lumber has several other benefits
in that it is environmentally friendly, and won’t warp, twist,
or shrink reducing squeaky floors and costly drywall repairs. The availability
of longer lengths and deeper joists of engineered wood offer designers
the freedom to create more open spaces by lessening the need for walls.
- Cabinets, Flooring, Lighting, and Appliances: New
homes offer endless options in style and design of cabinets with several
types of woods, finishes, and surface tops to select from. The newest
materials for floorings including stone, tile, wood, and carpets, encourage
the personal customization in new homes. New appliances and lighting
styles have expanded features and continue to become more energy efficient
from year to year.
