Now and Later - When to Start Planning

Spring into Action: Pergolas and Hardscapes

With the sun shining brighter and the days growing longer, April brings the promise of summer — and with it, the anticipation of outdoor living and entertainment. Now is the perfect moment to start planning your outdoor oasis. Dreaming of enjoying your Fourth of July under the shade of a new pergola or amidst the beauty of a custom hardscape? The time to act is now. This week, set those plans in motion and get the bidding started. At Whalebone Homes, the Fourth of July isn't just a celebration of independence but also a favorite holiday to unveil the spaces where memories will be made for years to come.

The Forward View: Post-Christmas Renovations

Looking further ahead, as the tinsel fades and the holiday cheer winds down, the post-Christmas period is the ideal time for interior renewals — think kitchen revamps and master bathroom overhauls. To breathe new life into your home's heart by early next year, the planning should commence right away. Collaborating with a designer can span a few months, ensuring every detail of your vision is meticulously mapped out. While the bidding might be swift, securing a spot on the construction calendar could take six to nine months. So, let's start planning today to turn your dream kitchen into a reality.

What's Brewing at Whalebone?

Excitement is in the spring air at Whalebone Homes as we gear up to launch two stunning projects in Rhode Island by the end of April. Soon to be on the market are gorgeous coastal homes each with its own unique charm — one, a historic remodel in Barrington, carries the whisper of the past into modern luxury. The other, a new build in Bristol, stands a stone's throw from one of Rhode Island's most enchanting downtowns. As mortgage rates begin to tip in favor of buyers, it's a prime time to settle into a new home crafted by Whalebone's commitment to excellence. Keep an eye on these projects; they're the perfect start to a fresh, new season.
