Building New Apartments for You

This week, we were featured in the El Paso Times! We have always built new and custom homes for El Paso. But now, we are doing more! We have two small apartment projects that are being built and plans for a third one.

All are located in Central/Downtown El Paso, which makes it easy for those who work Downtown, at the hospitals, and UTEP. If someone is moving to El Paso, there are now more living options available. One of the projects, the Franklin Avenue Apartments, is a 14-unit, that sits just down from the ballpark. If you feel like seeing a game or want to head Downtown for dinner, you are just steps away.

We are very excited that we can build for you in so many different ways, whether you need a 4-bedroom home for your family, or you live alone and love the Downtown lifestyle. We hope to keep building for you, El Paso!

Desert Landscapes in El Paso | New Home Builders

The days are longer, and that bright beautiful El Paso sun is shining. This weather definitely makes you want to start gardening, or garden more if you've already started! Gardening can definitely be fun, but we know that El Paso gets so hot come July or August, that taking care of your lawn becomes more difficult and time-consuming.

A great (and also beautiful!) solution for our climate is a desert landscape for your yard. A desert landscape is low maintenance, so taking care of it is an easy job. Plus, if you've just moved into your new home, you'll probably want to spend more time taking care and decorating the interior or just spending time inside with your family.

Since you will be using less water, it is great for the environment. Water is a precious natural resource, and by using less water for our lawns, we are helping this earth a step at a time. 

Plus, with the gorgeous desert all around us, a landscape like this matches perfectly. There are several desert plants to use on your lawn. You can even get creative with large rock or flat stone. In the end, you'll have something more interesting to look at than a regular yard with grass!

As one of the top home builders in El Paso, we strive to always give you excellent craftsmanship and outstanding customer service. We have over 30 floor plans for new homes available that can be modified to your needs and budget. Give us call today to find out how we can start building your new dream home!

Stay Warm, Stay Happy! New Homes El Paso

We're lucky we haven't seen any bad winter storms. But we do hear a cold front is coming in! We know heating new homes can get expensive. To help cut heating costs, there are some things you can do around your house to help! Huffington Post gives their tips.

By closing off unused rooms, you can help prevent cold air from moving around the house and help contain the heat you've generated. 

Believe it or not, your ceiling fan can also help! "By setting them clockwise in the winter at a lower speed, you can drive warm air down towards you and your guests."

Add some layers to your floor. "Floors account for as much as 10 percent of heat loss if they're not insulated, according to the National Energy Foundation, and rugs can be that missing insulation. They'll keep cool air from seeping up into the room..."

Grab some foil from your kitchen and put it behind the radiators in your home. It will reflect heat back into the home and not let it escape through the walls. 

Move that furniture around your new home and keep it away from windows. "Sitting by the window can cause radiant heat loss from your body to the glass make you feel cold."

And of course, blankets, sweaters, and hot water bottles still do the trick!

Buying a new home is a big investment, and any penny you can save is important! By following simple tips like these, you can help keep your heating bills low in your new home this cold season.

Tools You Should Have in Your New Home

As time passes, your new home may need small repairs. If you need to fix something in your home, you can call someone to help you with the repairs. However, if it is something easy, you can take care of it yourself. It is good to always bee prepared with the right tools. House Beautiful lists the top tools you should always hold in your new home.

SCREWDRIVERS
Be sure to always have an assortment of sizes and types like Phillips, slotted, and square-drive.

TAPE MEASURE
House Beautiful recommends a 16 or 25 foot Stanley Powerlock, which is big enough for projects around the house but not too bulky to carry around.

HEX KEYS AND TORX SECURITY BITS
It's best to get a multi-bit driver with hex key bits. "The bits have hex shanks so you can turn them by hand or chuck them into an impact driver or drill."

UTLITY KNIFE
There are two styles to choose from: traditional push-out and a foldout pocket-knife style. Always use caution when handling knives.

FAST-ACTING CLAMPS
Clamps come in several sizes and always come in handy!

WORK GLOVES
You always want to protect yourself when you're doing home repairs. Gloves can prevent burns, splinters, and cuts.

LASER LEVELS
Even doing something as simple as hanging a frame on a wall will be much easier with a level. The best ones to get project a 360-degree beam vertical out the front and out the side.

These are just a few of the tools you should have in your new home to take care of simple jobs and repairs. To see the full list from House Beautiful, click here.

Cleaning Your New Home | El Paso Home Builders

Sometimes our lives get so busy, our homes can get dirty very quickly! But giving your new home a good cleaning can be done by following six steps. Better Homes and Gardens gives their tips that can be done in every room of the house!

1. Declutter Just a Bit. You don't need to worry about cleaning anything behind a closed door, but anything that does not belong in the room and is visible, Better Homes and Gardens recommends finding a new place for it or even getting rid of it. 

2. Start High Then Low. Hard-to-reach surfaces are a pain, but cleaning them is easy by taking care of them in this order: ceiling, ceiling trim, ceiling light fixtures (including bulbs), walls, the rest of the trim, and baseboards. "The best tool is a clean microfiber mop or duster with a telescoping handle. (They're so thin you can get behind the sofa without moving it.)" To tackle anything above eye level, you just need to spray some water on your mop. For lower levels with dirt and dust, "use warm water mixed with a drop of dish soap. (In bathrooms, add a splash of white vinegarto stop mold.)"

3. Always Clean Windows. Yes, cleaning the windows in your new home is not fun, but it'll pay off.  To start, vacuum the sills and tracks. Then spray the entire window with cleaner. Let it sit  for a minute, then squeegee it off.

4. Spruce Up Those Window Treatments. You don't need to take down blinds or shades in your home to clean them. Simply vacuum them using the brush attachment. "And instead of laundering and ironing curtains, just fluff them in the dryer for a few minutes (while you wipe off the rod and rings). Then hang them right back up."  

5. Get Rid of Dust. Use a petroleum distillate-free, beeswax-based wood cleaner to clean all remaining hard surfaces (wood furniture, shelves, built-ins, etc.), and take a lint roller to the lampshades.

6. Refresh The Floors. You'll need to move around the furniture. To make this task easier,  put furniture gliders under the big pieces. Use your vacuum's crevice tool "to get at dirt in corners and along baseboards." Clean hard floors with a microfiber mop and the prescribed cleaner. "If you have carpet, now is a good time to rent a professional-grade cleaner." 

Buying a new home is a big and exciting time in your life. But now that you've bought your new home, be sure to take good care of it so it can last you a lifetime! As one of the top home builders in El Paso, we know how important buying a home is. We're here to help you every step of the way. Give us a call today to find out how we can build for you!

Dining Areas in New Homes | El Paso Home Builders

Your new home is unique to you! It should accommodate all your needs for your daily life. When it comes to the dining room, you can arrange the perfect eating area, whether you prefer a more formal dining room or a casual breakfast nook. 

DINING ROOM
If your home style is more traditional, a separate dining area can be a better experience for you and your family. And if you still want a more casual eating area, you can include your dining area as a party of your family room. This way, it can be both a formal and casual space.

EAT-IN KITCHEN
An eat-in kitchen is a great option for a more casual dining area in your new home. It's also great for families because it provides a space to keep an eye on the kids while cooking or just a place to socialize with each other. 

BAR TOPS AND ISLANDS
Stools surrounding a kitchen island or against a bar counter provide another casual experience in your new home. Plus, by integrating a table on one end of the island provides more room.

BANQUETTE
If you have limited space in your home, a banquette long a wall is a great option that can be placed in the kitchen, dining room, and living room.

BREAKFAST NOOK
For a separate space away from the kitchen, but still keeping it casual, opt for a breakfast nook. It provides a cozy space to spend time with the family but more traditional than a bar top.

Whether you are ready to move in to a new home or you want to build a custom house from scratch, Pointe Homes can help you every step of the way. Your needs and budget are important to us, and we are dedicated to accommodating you and your family by building you your dream home.

In the bathroom, "you need a variety of sources that provide illumination in three layers: ambient, task, and accent" ensure adequate lighting. According to Better Homes and Gardens, "lighting serves many purposes in a bathroom.
