We are coming into the warmer months of the year and we could not be more excited! With the snow melting, ground thawing, and nights becoming warmer, we are well on our way to starting our seasonal work for 2021.
For any Daytona homeowners who have or will take possession of their new home between November 2020 and June 2021, this blog is for you. If you want to learn all about seasonal work and what to expect in the upcoming months, keep reading!
Seasonal work is defined as any construction task that cannot be completed during the winter months due to weather conditions (temperature, precipitation, frost penetration, etc.). These tasks are instead completed when the weather permits in the warmer months.
Types of seasonal work can include:

Decision making about which communities/streets we start with is solely based on the rate at which the ground thaws. A number of factors affect this, including community location and orientation of your home.
Community Location:
Orientation of Home (North/South):
