J&B Construction Receives Three Awards from Milwaukee NARI
Feb 09, 2016J&B Construction Company, Inc. recently received three awards from the Milwaukee NARI Home Improvement Council, Inc. at the association’s annual Wisconsin Remodeler of the Year Awards event.
J&B won two awards in the Residential Exterior Under $100,000 category, a gold and a bronze, and it won a gold award in the four-color brochure category.
The gold award was for a home in Waukesha where the homeowners desired a front porch with a swing to allow them to enjoy their wooded lot, plus have an inviting front of the home. The objectives were created through the installation of LP Smartside Composite Siding with 5” exposure and Timber Tech Terrain decking and skirting, neither of which requires maintenance. Louvered black shutters were added to both stories of the home, with repetitive spacing to ensure uniformity, with new trim added around all windows and new aluminum soffit and fascia installed. The renovation provides additional seating for at least five people, with end tables for serving refreshments.
The bronze award was presented for a project completed on a Port Washington home, as the homeowners desired maintaining the historical look of their 1880’s stone and log home, but wanted no-maintenance materials installed. They sought to maintain the quaint feeling plus use natural materials. The renovation was to be reminiscent of the home’s period and tie into the original stone, which was accomplished by using standard lap siding in Tuscan Olive and Quiet Willow, along with GAF Woodland roof shingles. As part of the renovation, a new fireplace chimney was installed, plus a new ridge vent system was added, featuring two new roof vents in brown to match the color of the roof shingles.
The main objective of the new company brochure was to better promote the full range of exterior product offerings that J&B Construction provides. An additional objective was to reinforce the branding mission established to market the company’s services and products.
