The Corbo Group is now in process of framing 9 Windy Ridge, a new home in Watertown, CT.
The Corbo Group has been working hard this summer to make significant progress on several custom homes in Connecticut.
The home builders in Connecticut are currently in process of framing 9 Windy Ridge, a new home in Watertown, CT that was announced in a previous post in July. This picturesque home at 9 Windy Ridge is set on 2.29 acres and features a 3-car garage, 2.5 baths and 4 bedrooms for $429,999. More information on this home can be found on the Featured Homes page of the Corbo website.
Starting at $469,900, another featured home at 18 BellaVista, Watertown, CT is complete and ready for move in! This home features an open layout that’s perfect for family living, with a 3-car garage, first floor master, 3 secondary bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms. More information on this home also can be found on the Featured Homes page of the Corbo website.
A new custom home in Washington, CT is in the beginning stages of construction, while custom plans are being prepared for several homes at Owl Ridge, an executive neighborhood that features homes priced at one million and up.

As summer comes to an end, work picks up and the kids go back to school, home maintenance can often be put on the back burner for a less busy time. But using the fall to “winterize” your custom home in Connecticut can save you money, increase your energy efficiency and keep your home more comfortable through the cold-weather months.
Here are some easy home winterization projects, as seen on TheDailyGreen.com:
1. Lower Your Thermostat
For every degree you lower the thermostat during heating season, you’ll save between 1 and 3% of your heating bill. Make it easier with a programmable thermostat!
2. Insulate, Insulate, Insulate
For just a few dollars, pick up a window insulation kit at your local hardware or discount store. Don’t worry – properly installed, window plastic is essentially invisible. Save even more by hiring a pro to install a high-tech “low-e” film directly to the window glass. Many homes by Corbo come standard with low-e ENERGY STAR windows.
Pay less for hot water by insulating pipes. That can also help decrease the chance of pipes freezing, which can be disastrous. You can get pre-slit foam at most hardware stores. Cut it to size and fasten in place with duct tape. Ideally, choose the insulation with the highest R-value practical, which is a measure of its heat-blocking power.
3. Dodge the Draft(s)
According to the U.S. Department of Energy, drafts can waste 5% to 30% of your energy use. Start simple and adopt that old Great Depression fixture – the draft snake, which you can easily make yourself.
4. Change Furnace Filters
It’s easy to forget, but it’s important to replace or clean furnace filters once a month during the heating season. Dirty filters restrict airflow and increase energy demand. Consider switching to a permanent filter, which will reduce waste and hassle.
5. Run Fans in Reverse
Most people think of fans only when they want to be cool, but many ceiling units come with a handy switch that reverses the direction of the blades. Counterclockwise rotation produces cooling breezes, while switching to clockwise makes it warmer: air pooled near the ceiling is circulated back into the living space – cutting your heating costs by as much as 10%!

It is The Corbo Group’s mission to bring the latest ideas to their customers through their experience, training and continuing education. One of the ways the Corbos stay up-to-date on the best homebuilding products and techniques is by attending various seminars, conventions and trainings throughout the year.
Colin Corbo recently attended the Denon CI (Certified Integrator) yearly re-training. This training ensures that the home builders in Connecticut sustain their Denon Dealer status, which keeps The Corbo Group up-to-date with the latest and greatest AV and technology features to incorporate in their custom homes in Connecticut.
In April, Ralph Corbo attended a convention for Boston Custom Builders at Kohler Co. in Kohler, Wisconsin. Attendees heard presentations on a variety of elegant plumbing options, including kitchen faucets, custom showers and unique fixtures. During the three-day event, builders also attended training on Kohler’s state-of-the-art products — bath & showers, Kohler sinks, one-piece toilets and cast iron/stainless steel Kohler sinks.
