Most people never think about insulation... until their energy bill arrives in January. ❄️
 
We’re mid-build on this Valparaiso home, and before a single sheet of drywall goes up, Mike is walking the site to make sure every wall is blown-in to R-20.
 
Why does that matter? Because NW Indiana winters are no joke. And the difference between R-13 and R-20 isn’t just a number: it’s how warm your home feels at 6am, how much you’re paying to heat it, and how well it holds its value for years to come.
 
Most builders insulate to R-13. That meets code. That passes inspection. But it’s the minimum, and minimum isn’t how we build. This is the work nobody sees. But you’ll feel it every single day.

Opening up walls in an older home can feel scary. Here's why it shouldn't. 👇

When Hendren Custom Homes takes on a remodel or renovation, we treat what's behind the walls with the same care as what's in front of them.

In older NW Indiana homes, outdated plumbing is one of the most common things we find, and one of the most important things we fix.

What homeowners can expect:
A thorough assessment before any work begins
Clear communication if something unexpected comes up
Plumbing updates that meet current code and protect your home for decades

Updating your plumbing isn't just maintenance. It's an investment in water pressure, home value, and the kind of peace of mind that lets you actually enjoy your remodel when it's done.
