Quality Homes. Quality of Life.

Customer Satisfaction Important at Lowder

So you have chosen the area that you want to live in, maybe even the neighborhood. You want a new home, not a fix-it-upper. You know the general floor plan that fits your lifestyle. You want a new home just the way you want it. 

Now, who are you going to trust to build your new home? Your home, well, is your home, but real estate is an investment too. You want to make the right choice in the builder that not only builds your home, but that will stand behind it. 

A lot goes into choosing a builder for your new home. You have to consider the company’s history, financial stability, whose name is going to be behind your home? You also have to consider things like the timeline for building, availability of options and upgrades, and do they have the resources, the personnel and the expertise to make your home special?

That’s why building with Lowder New Homes is the best solution. With more than 50 years of experience and more than 200 years of expertise in our team, we have the process and the people to take care of you. We have implemented a customer service system that answers your questions and keeps you informed. It starts from the time you pick out a home site, continues during the design and selections process, and it continues during construction with on-site visits with our construction team. But our customer service doesn’t end with the completion of you new home. All throughout the warranty period and beyond we are happy to respond to your questions and your needs. We know that every time we have the opportunity to serve you, we have the opportunity to make a customer for life.

Listen to what a homeowner wrote this week to tell us:

“I must admit that when I recently called Lowder about a problem only to be told that the only person I had discussed this with had retired my confidence level plummeted!  I’ve had my fair share of bad experiences (not with Lowder New Homes) but with resolving home repair issues so I really wasn’t too optomistic about this situation. But boy did ya’ll ever prove me wrong!!  To say that I’m happy that this has been resolved is an understatement.  I’m actually ecstatic and will be singing your praises for years to come! I will be a cheerleader for Lowder New Homes.”  Ms. Judy Brown

It’s this kind of response from our customers that makes us proud to not only be in this business but to wake up every day! We also know that the relationship with our customers will be rewarded down the road. In fact, we’ve made it such a part of our customer philosophy that more than 98 percent of our customers said that they will recommend us to family and friends.

Guard Your Yard from this Weekend’s Scorching Heat!

Local weather experts are predicting the hottest weekend so far this year for the River Region. Will your lawn be ready for the heat? Homeowners all over Montgomery, Prattville and Millbrook are looking for ways to keep their grass from withering to a sad brown crunch this summer. Take a look at some tips from the Home Builders Association of Alabama to help keep your lawn as beautiful as your brand-new Lowder home.

Avoid Summer Lawn Stress
Care, patience and a little bit of knowledge can make the difference between a lush healthy lawn and an arid brown eyesore. But proper lawn care is more complicated than setting out a sprinkler every once in a while. You can water or fertilize a lawn too little or too much, and even the time of day matters.

Overwatering is the most common lawn care mistake home owners make, according to the University of Florida’s Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences. It can damage or even kill a lawn. Too much water leads to a shallow root system; it makes a lawn more vulnerable to weeds, insects, and diseases; and it reduces tolerance to drought and other environmental stresses.

Before you pull out the hose, though, you need to find out how much water your lawn is getting by measuring the irrigation and precipitation rates. You don’t need sophisticated tools to figure this out; all you need is a coffee can.

Here are some tips from The Cornell Cooperative Extension Service:
Determine the irrigation rate by placing a can on an area that is being watered and taking note of how much water is in the can after 15 minutes.

Calculate precipitation amount by leaving a can in the yard for a week and seeing how much rainwater collects in it.

Actively growing turfgrass requires about one inch of water a week; water your lawn for as many minutes a week that are needed so that precipitation plus watering totals one inch.

Water your lawn in the early morning to reduce evaporation and so plants dry by mid-morning. Letting the leaves stay wet for too long can lead to disease.

Don’t mow your lawn too short. Keep it about three inches tall to reduce stress and pest problems.

Wait until fall to fertilize, about two weeks after the last time you mow. If you fertilize in the spring, you will get fast-growing leaves, but weak roots, which will make the plants more susceptible to diseases and insects. Heeding these few guidelines will go a long way to helping you maintain and enjoy your lawn, even through the hot, dry summer.
