Custom Build in Farragut Serves As Model Of McCamy Quality
Thursday, January 31st, 2019
From framing to finishing, Kim Frasch knows his way around new home construction. He got an early start by working on his father’s construction crew when he was in college, and then by building six homes of his own throughout the years. So when he and his wife, Karoline, decided to return to her native East Tennessee from Atlanta for retirement, there was little question that they’d build a custom home. The first one they built in the area was in Rarity Bay, where Kim soon became a superintendent working with other new homeowners and builders.
- 5 heating and cooling zones for energy efficiency and precise temperature balance.
- Hot and cold water spigots in upper and lower garages for washing the car or dog.
- Electrical plugs on stairway in case an electrical chair is needed when they’re older.
- Waist-high outlets in the basement for musician friends to plug in instruments.
- Entry level Anderson windows that open so that it’s easy to clean the outside panes.
The Building Process
Kim believes that when you build a home with McCamy, you’re buying into their process, their team, and their quality of workmanship. He says, “McCamy has local and loyal subcontractors. With some builders, there’s no telling who your masons are going to be, or who will be doing your wiring. But when we were getting bids we knew McCamy’s masons are using the best technology concepts and that the framers are very good. We met the finish carpenters, who were very articulate when explaining their work and are extremely good at what they do.” The other McCamy factor that gave Kim and Karoline great peace of mind was the team’s use of a digital app that keeps homeowners up-to-date about a project’s progress on a daily basis. “Every night, Greg Johnson, our Job Superintendent, put notes and pictures in the app,” Kim explains. “I would get a notification to see the update and I could message them back. Ashley and I could communicate on what was being done through the app at any step. “The brilliant part is that the app creates a daily documentation of the whole project—what has been done, what’s been decided or changed. With all that documentation, it’s clear what needs to be done and errors are prevented or virtually eliminated. This communication model would be perfect for an absentee homeowner who can’t be at the site every day. They can go to their app every night and see what has been done.”Opening Their Home to Pay It Forward
