WELCOME! Who we are: SFAHBA Welcome to the 32nd Annual Santa Fe Home Show LETTER FROM THE PRESIDENT Hard to believe how time passes so quickly.

Here we are in 2020. As we begin a new decade, so begins new leadership and events at the Santa Fe Area Home Builders Association. Our first event being March 14-15 Santa Fe Home Show.

Like all of our annual events, the Home Show acts as an ideal vehicle for members to meet and show off their wares and skills to the public who are looking to build or improve upon their dream home here in Santa Fe. In June, the annual golf tournament at the Marty Sanchez Links de Santa Fe allows active fellowship between suppliers and contractors while enjoying a day of chasing the little white ball across the scenic high desert. The tournament not only builds long-lasting friendships, but also steadfast business relationships.

Finally, our year rounds out in August with the Parade of Homes where builders show off their skills along with demonstrating the latest techniques in architecture, building technology and construction. The Parade of Homes also spotlights the local tradespeople who help supply products and services that make the homes practical as well as beautiful.

All these events are put together and are successful due to active volunteer members who make the time to help out and contribute away from their paid careers.

As one of these members, the return is not immediately tangible. As an active member since 2003, I have been personally blessed to have my efforts returned from years of volunteering with a seemingly endless list of builders, remodeling professionals and design members passing me clients for my appliance offerings. Truth is, most of these relationships were in large part established and strengthened over the planning meetings and execution of these association events.

As your 2020 elected SFAHBA president, I am reaching out to all our members to please join me in becoming more active in helping the association. I know you will find that the return will be worth the investment, and you may even have a great time doing it. Let’s all get active in these events, and enjoy a prosperous and productive 2020 together.

Marty Sanchez Links de Santa Fe will host our annual fun day of golf with SFAHBA members and friends. Consid­ered one of the most beautiful public courses in New Mexico, Marty Sanchez Links de Santa Fe is the perfect venue for a four-person scramble. The shotgun start begins at 9 a.m., giving you plenty of time to hit a few balls on the driving range or join us for a breakfast burrito.

We have cash prizes for first, second and third place finishers, but we sell unlimited Mulligans, which means everyone has a chance to win big. The day of fun is not restricted to SFAHBA members, of course, so call Tanya at 505-982-1774 to form a team or find out about spon­sorship opportunities. Join us for a great day of fun and relaxation with your friends at SFAHBA.

Haciendas: A Parade of Homes August 7-9 and 14-16

The Southwest’s premier home tour is a must-see event and a highlight of Santa Fe’s summer season. Santa Fe style has become iconic over the years and many people dream of owning a place in our beautiful community. The chance to meet and talk with builders and see their outstanding work is what makes the tour so popular. The tour is selfdriven, and houses are available to tour over two weekends.

Tickets are only $15, available at the homes on the tour and online.

This year we will once again invite local students to sell tickets at the homes. Over the years, SFAHBA has donated thousands of dollars to local schools in gratitude for their volunteer work during the parade.

Monthly Lunches for Builders and Remodelers: Networking and Education Our move to Santa Fe’s southside in 2016 more than doubled our office footprint, which provided for a great space for luncheons and other activities. Now able to seat up to 75, our room hosts many events beyond our regular monthly builder­-focused luncheons.

In the recent political season, it’s been a great venue to engage candidates on issues of importance to Santa Fe and Northern New Mexico. We have also been proud to establish ourselves on the burgeoning southside of Santa Fe and to see our presence ap­ preciated by the community.

Lunches are open to members for $15 and to nonmembers for $20.

GLASSplash collaborates with artists, photographers and designers creating a new canvas on glass to enhance the artistry of your home with limitless possibilities.

CASITAS

PHOTOS COURTESY OF SITEWORKS

BY ELAYNE LOWE

Maybe the kids are all grown but need a place to stay when they visit. Maybe a caregiver needs his or her own space. Maybe it’s time to downsize. Or, maybe having a flexible space for whatever the unpredictable future holds brings comfort, not to mention the bonus cash flow from renting it out in the meantime.

Whatever the reason, building a casita or guest house offers homeowners an adaptable space. However, is your backyard ready for such an endeavor?

While municial guidelines may feel daunting, there are a variety of resources homeowners can seek out to evaluate their properties and conceptualize their dream casita.

“There are often, even when it seems tight, creative solutions,” said Zane Fischer, the chief executive officer of Extraordinary Structures, a local design and build manufacturing company.

20

Haciendas

In order to come up with creative solutions, one must be familiar with the extensive and not always user-friendly building ordinances. Fischer can easily cite the specific dimensions needed to keep in mind when building near property lines and the codes related to water drainage and roofing. He said using contractors or designers already familiar with Santa Fe’s building codes can streamline the process and make it more navigable for homeowners.

Once a property has been evaluated against city codes and terrain limitations, Fischer said a backyard still may not be suitable for the ideal vision homeowners set out with.

Instead, he said to think of alternatives such as building something above a garage, or plopping prebuilt structures such as a tiny house on the property.

“People can be surprised how something that small can feel quite spacious,” Fischer said. “Even with a small yard, you can do something really quite elegant.”

Fischer’s ultimate advice is to remember a casita is an investment. Since kitchens and bathrooms are the more expensive parts of a house compared to wide empty spaces for living areas, homeowners should still expect to spend at least $125,000 to $150,000, he said. Even if the initial construction finishes and there isn’t that perfect tile surrounding the kitchen or bathroom, homeowners can add on through the years.

“You don’t have to finish it as your absolute dream casita from the start,” Fischer said.

What does matter from the start is efficiency, said Scott Cherry, the builder and owner of Lightfoot Inc., a building company focused on using natural materials. He said starting with an energy efficient design can be more important than décor details to ensure future savings. To create this efficiency, he evaluates properties and designs homes by considering natural resources that will contribute to or hinder the building’s functionality.

Cherry said he looks at where the sun will be in relation to the building in order to strategically place windows to try to hit the sweet spot between natural light, heating and insulation. Lightfoot Inc. uses a light straw clay mixture as the wall in-fill system, which Cherry said is not only environmentally friendly but also affords better insulation and moisture management.

Even though wall fillings or window placements may not feel as personalized as faucet selections or flooring installations, the builder said they can make the biggest difference.

“If you start with all that then your heating loads and cooling loads go down so your bills are less expensive,” Cherry said.

By being methodical and thoughtful from the beginning, homeowners can make the most of their small structures, he said.

“The more money you spend in design, the less money you spend in construction and the less frustrated you’ll be with the building,” Cherry said.

Building a casita will require financial planning, which Mike Loftin said can be possible for anyone as long as homeowners are evaluating their current costs of living.

Loftin is the chief executive officer at Homewise, a Santa

Fe nonprofit aiming to make homeownership more accesible.

He said no one should construct an additional building unless they are comfortable with their current mortgage and home ownership expenses. Renting this new guest house can help homeowners manage the operation costs, but Loftin warns a casita shouldn’t be viewed as an instant source of profit.

“It’s not the solution to financial trouble,” Loftin said. “I wouldn’t rush into it.”

Loftin said it’s about working within one’s means. A lot of times these guest homes don’t need to be luxurious but can cater to young couples or families looking to rent something simple, Loftin said. If a homeowner is building an add-on intending to lease it, Loftin said they need to decide on a business plan.

“You’re not just owning your own home; you’re a landlord too,” he said.

Homeowners must be prepared to pay for maintenance costs associated with the guest homes — even if a tenant trashes the estate, he said. In this way, evaluating one’s finances, discussing what the casita’s intended use will be, and checking backgrounds for potential tenants can help prepare homeowners.

“We want people to be successful in the long haul and not overreach and stumble,” Loftin said. “It doesn’t have to be this big, expensive thing.”

THREE QUESTIONS FOR SAVVY HOMEOWNERS

I

IN NEED OF A NEW ROOF

BY MATT SEGURA T’S THE OCCASION no homeowner looks forward to — reroofing time.

Often time as homeowners we don’t see our flat footing systems and what’s out of sight is out of mind until there’s a problem or it is time to replace them. The process of getting estimates, doing research on companies and products, and taking the time to meet with potential roofers can be a daunting task. Asking three fundamental questions during your research can focus your efforts and help you be more successful in your project.

Before we get to the questions, let’s remember some of the fundamentals of hiring a contractor. Never forget to verify your contractor is licensed and insured, ask for references, and do not pay excessive deposits.

It is important for your roofing contractor to diagnose the issue prior to installing a new roof, not just make a sales pitch. There are numerous factors that can lead to leaks and you must understand what is causing the active leak.

22

Haciendas

Though estimates are free, they are not free for the contractor. Many companies may offer high commissions to sales staff to close the deal and bring in a deposit that day.

Ask a simple question: “Will re-roofing, or the process you are proposing, address the leak I am experiencing?” There is a chance that the leaking could be related to a detail or building component not related to the roof. The last thing you want is the exact same leak after the next storm after installing a new roof. Asking this question will require the contractor to take your concern seriously, and change their mindset from selling to problem solving.

Your home’s specific design is critical when selecting a new roof. There are hundreds of different roofing systems and specifications to follow. Most homeowners do not get into the details of the specific roofing specification being used. In New Mexico, obtaining a re-roof permit is required. In order to obtain a permit, specifications must be submitted to the city or state permit office.

Another question to ask is: “Can I get a copy of the roofing specifications that your team will follow?”

The specifications will provide a detailed outline of how this roofing system should be installed according to the manufacture. Most roofing failures are a result of installation failure, not material. Do not be sold by long term material warranties on residential applications. The materials typically do not fail; the method of installation does. Understanding the manufacture’s specifications will help you as a homeowner to understand if the system being purposed is appropriate for the design of your home.

Re-roofing in Santa Fe and its surrounding areas is different from other regions. Due to flat roof and exposed ceiling design, re-roofing means more than just applying another layer of shingles. Re-roofing can mean removing several layers of roofing, repairing decking, creating slope, adding insulation, and finally, installing a roof covering.

Because of the added costs of these steps, roofing manufactures have introduced coatings as a way to prolong the life of an existing roof. Coatings are quite a bit less expensive, and in some cases, are the perfect solution to a weathered roof.

Coatings are not themselves considered roofing systems, they are designed to supplement an existing roofing system and require specific conditions to be effective and meet the manufacture specifications.

Finally, it is important to ask: “Will this application address my leak and is the existing surface appropriate for coating application?” The specifications for coating application will provide detailed information about substrate requirements.

Overall, be clear about your expectations in terms of cost, change orders, timing and duration. The challenges of Santa Fe’s signature architecture have led to the development of some of the best roofing craftsmen and installers in the country. By asking these three simple questions you will find the right team to address your roofing needs.

HELOC

Home Equity Line of Credit

BY ELAYNE LOWE

F

LIPPING THROUGH THIS ISSUE OF HACIENDAS, there are a lot of beautiful renovations and home transformations that might inspire new ideas and plans for your own home. Getting that dream kitchen or updated floor plan can seem difficult to balance on top of your other financial commitments. However, there is a way to use your house — as is — to help.

Home equity lines of credit are similar to a credit card that uses your house as collateral, according to the Federal Trade Commission. Unlike a home equity loan, a HELOC enables homeowners to only pay back what they borrow.

Homeowners can borrow as much as they need up to the credit line. According to the Federal Trade Commission’s website, a HELOC will typically offer up to 85 percent of the house’s appraisal rate once the amount still owed on the mortgage has been subtracted.

Diego Muñoz, assistant vice president for marketing and communications at Del Norte Credit Union, said the beauties of a HELOC are the easy repayment options and the ability to break home improvement projects into financially feasible steps.

“It gives you that peace of mind that you can go at it on

24

Haciendas

your own terms and at your own pace,” Muñoz said. “You can focus on that small project and not feel like you’re overwhelmed.”

Not only do homeowners have control of how much money to borrow at a time from the credit, but the finance rates tend to be lower, Muñoz said.

Muñoz said because a homeowner takes out against their mortgage, it enables them to enhance the overall value.

“In today’s financial market, second mortgages and HELOCs enable people to build on equity,” Muñoz said. “You’re really building wealth in that.”

The Federal Trade Commission warns homeowners on best practices for seeking a HELOC, such as doing research and asking questions to lenders. The Federal Truth in Lending Act requires lenders by law to disclose the terms and costs of a loan plan when someone gets an application.

The best thing, Muñoz said, is to stop by in person for a chat.

“When you come into a credit union looking for a HELOC, it’s a simple process,” Muñoz said. “You can pay more or less depending on how comfortable you feel.”

2019 GRAND AWARD: TIERRA CONCEPTS

CREATING MAGIC

IN THE SPACE BETWEEN CONTEMPORARY AND HISTORIC

BY ELAYNE LOWE | PHOTOS BY WENDY MCEAHERN Even ghosts would have rethought making the 130-year-old formerly white and turquoise adobe building on East Palace Avenue their home.

Doors hung ajar. The patch of dirt out front hardly warranted the label of a yard. Drop ceilings made the rooms, which were chopped into separate apartments, a hazard to anyone with claustrophobia.

Where others saw a headache of repairs, remodeling and rewiring, Keith Gorges saw possibility.

“The thing I’m most proud of is having the guts to take on this house,” said Gorges, builder and homeowner of Tierra Concepts’ 2019 winning Remodelers Showcase entry.

Tierra Concepts is a custom home building and design company, which has won the Grand Hacienda Award in the annual Parade of Homes six times. Gorges said having his home win the 2019 award is an honor, but also a testament to perserverance after facing the difficulties of being both the 28

Haciendas

builder and the client for the year-long renovation.

“It’s the hardest relationship you’ll ever have,” he said with a laugh.

Gorges and his life partner of 18 years, Ricardo Sanchez, wanted a home that reflected both the structure’s historic beauty and their shared passion for contemporary design. Gorges said while the repairs posed unique struggles, he was almost more stressed by finding the balance between old and new styles.

“The most daunting challenge was knowing how far to take it and when to stop,” he said.

The goal was to make the Santa Fe Historic Preservation Division smile while welcoming the house into the 21st century with style. The historic facade was restored to a warm sand color. Landscaping brought new life to the front with local vegetation. Kitchen updates made the space functional. Gorges, alongside Tierra Concepts builders, tore down walls to open the interior spaces, built a master bath suite, and developed outdoor living areas.

The best surprise, Gorges said, was finding the original vigas

under two drop ceilings. This was also one of the scarier parts of the renovation, because, he said, they had no idea what they would find. All the original vigas, minus one, were in excellent shape, he said, and once the team removed dirt buildup from the roof, the beams snapped back into place.

While challenging, he said, juxtaposing styles ended up enhancing both.

“If you create this tension between the two you create this effect where they both stand out in this special and magical way,” Gorges said.

Saguna Severson, Tierra Concepts marketing director, said this was a challenging job in terms of both design and construction.

“It shows that we have a fantastic team at every level,” she said. “Not many people would have the vision or the talent to take on this dark and cramped home, retain the historic elements, satisfy the [Historic Districts Review Board], and come out with a fabulous family home.”

Gorges advises other homeowners looking to accentuate their historic abode while modernizing it to seek out examples of what they want.

“Find people who’ve done things that resonate with you and pick their brains,” Gorges said. “It’s nice to show people there’s a whole other palette you can do to showcase these older homes.” sfahba.com

Many people who work from home and occasionally host family staying overnight probably would prefer a separate room for each function. But the problem is a lot of those people have only one extra room instead of two.

So they have to combine a home o∞ce and a guest room into one space.

We asked Gabriela Gargano, owner of Grisoro Designs in New York, for tips on how to design and decorate a room so that it works equally well as a guest room and as a functional workspace. Here’s what Gargano wrote in an email: Start with a list of requirements for the office.

What type of storage do you need for the o∞ce? Is it filing cabinets or bookcases? Do you need space for a printer and other technology? Having a good grasp of the functionality you require will allow you to design a space that’s optimal for you.

Play around with different layouts. Ideally, the bed will face the entry to the room, so that your guests have a warm welcome into the space. However, if your room

obody wants a roof leak to find out it’s suddenly time to spend thousands of dollars.

The roof is probably the most important reason to remember the word “maintenance,” and that means one of two things: call aCondesa rooferCtfor a free inspection and estimate or get up there yourself.

Most flat roofs in this area will last from 20 to 30 years, if they’re maintained.

The trouble areas typically are penetrations (where vent pipes and skylights, for example, come up through the roofing material) and terminations (when there is no parapet and the roofing material extends all the way out to a drip edge).

“And the flashing along parapet walls,” said roofer Hillary McPartlon. “If you get cracks in the stucco, water can get underneath and into the roof deck. It follows gravity until it can get down.”

Gravity is annoying.

“It is,” she agreed. “And it gets so hot here and evaporates water, so it can take a really big storm, or a three-day rain, or a lot of snow melting, for a leak to show up.”

If you’re a do-it-yourselfer, get up there, walk around and look for problems, including places where the roofing material has curled away from pipes or skylights or around the canales, and look for cracks.

The flat part of the roof, which roofers call the field, rarely shows problems. “Unless somebody has dropped something big or the satellite-TV guy drilled right into the roof.

I’ve seen that,” McPartlon said.

There can also be pecking damage from birds. Cats, and even bobcats, like using gravel-surface roofs as litter boxes. Last year, a

A traditional patching method is to smear on roofing asphalt with a putty knife, add a layer of fiberglass cloth, then more asphalt.

Brian McPartlon Roofing crew saw a hole in a canale, and it turned out there was a 3-footlong beehive inside the parapet.

Gaps and cracks should be filled with the appropriate repair gunk. A traditional patching method is to smear on roofing asphalt with a putty knife, add a layer of fiberglass cloth, then more asphalt.

There are lots of products available. Many of them may not last long under Santa Fe’s strong sunshine.

“Coatings are hugely popular with do-it-yourselfers, but you have to follow the

directions explicitly or you’re wasting your time and money,” said Hillary McPartlon’s father, Brian McPartlon.

Even with the best material, the homeowner might miss cracks that an experienced roofer wouldn’t. The elder McPartlon, owner of Brian McPartlon Roofing, said many patch jobs done by his crews will cost around $2,000 for an average house. It will be more if the house is larger or if the previous roofer was careless and there are more problems.

Old Santa Fe charm gets new life

New homeowners wanted to rejuvenate this Quail Run house’s lackluster Southwestern style to showcase their antique Native American art collection and furnishings while introducing contemporary design elements. Fabu-WALL-ous Solutions, in coordination with subcontractors and out-of-state designer Tad Watts, not only reconfigured and revitalized the interior spaces, but completed everything within 100 days to meet the homeowners’ projected move-in date. The complex initiative included: extending floor and stairwell tiling; finishing all walls and ceilings with Venetian plaster; custom staining the plank ceiling and vigas; and installing custom ambient art lighting. The master bathroom tub was eliminated to accommodate a sitting area. All three showers were remodeled with designer tiling. Custom kitchen cabinets with artisanal tin inserts were mounted above tiled countertops. The home’s detailed transformation now fuses old Santa Fe style and 21st century elegance to make this a dream-worthy home.

This 30-year-old kitchen got the modern update it needed with a harmonious and natural design. The homeowners wanted the kitchen to be more open, have more cabinet space, sport better lighting and boast modern appliances — all with as many sustainable materials as possible. Home Construction Doctor delivered on the contemporary design while keeping functionality at the forefront. All the appliances were kept in easy-to-reach locations and situated to follow a logical workflow. The old Saltillo tile flooring was replaced with Amish hand-hewn hardwood as a way to help ease back pain and to complement the kitchen’s vigas.

Bamboo cabinets provide ample storage. Lighter colors brighten the relatively small room while still highlighting the original adobe walls.

Bringing art deco to the 21st century

Jean Cocteau Cinema is a cultural staple in Santa Fe, and its renovations helped supplement the theater’s nostalgia for bygone days. Constructive Assets helped bring the old theater back to its glory days with a festive art deco theme reminiscent of the theater’s opening in the 1980s. The new bar area with polished steel doors is the new highlight of the space with glass chandeliers to draw patrons to the adult refreshments. The glass front concession stand was replaced to accommodate candy, pastries, and theater memorabilia. The floors and walls were updated with color and textures to bring a pop to the space. Modern electrical systems were installed, including new digital film and sound equipment. Within six months, the theater was given new life with old charm.

Minimal carbon footprint, maximum comfort

Making the Donaciano Vigil House into a comfortable, modern home that still honors its past was a tall order. Removing its carbon footprint at the same time made it even taller.

Lightfoot Inc. transformed the more than 200-year-old adobe building by balancing environmentally friendly upgrades with stylish renovations. The natural materials building company incorporated its signature light straw clay wall infill for maximized insulation and moisture management. All electric heating systems are solar powered and the house no longer uses gas. Passive solar designs, including a solar conservatory and a mass brick floor, give the homeowners greater solar gains.

Lightfoot Inc. installed more kitchen cabinets, modern appliances and new countertops to rejuvenate the home’s function while ensuring the house retained its cozy southwestern vibe.

Arpad Builders, LLC

Brightening the mood

The more than 40-year-old master bathroom got the makeover and upgrade it needed after the homeowners decided it was time to brighten the space.

Arpad Builders were contracted to renovate the 375-square-foot space as well as surrounding upgrades such as correcting drainage around the house and replacing water damaged acoustic ceiling tiles in the basement. Within 45 days, Arpad Builders transformed the outdated bathroom by removing the original plaster, tile shower enclosure, and fixtures. A sleek, freestanding bathtub creates an air of luxury while the new vinyl flooring fosters functionality with a warmer and more cushioned surface than the original Saltillo tile. The homeowners wanted a cool, contemporary look and a brighter space without adding skylights or additional lighting besides a dimmer light installed by the tub. Now the homeowners can either relax in the tub or enjoy a shower in a large glass enclosure in a bright, modern space.

The homeowners were specific: Renovations must be seamless with existing finishes, everything must be completed in the old style, and “nothing should be slick.” Siteworks Inc. converted the master bedroom into a living room. A new master bedroom was built adjacent to the old master bath and closet, connected to the living room with a new living portal. In the kitchen, Siteworks Inc. moved cabinets and utilities to create space for a range and plastered hood. The center bay window in the pictured dining room was replaced with a masonry fireplace. Siteworks Inc. configured the space to have a smooth flow so people no longer felt like they needed a map to navigate the house.

WHOLE HOUSE REMODEL

7

To be young again

This 1970 Northside home received a much needed face lift, making it feel new again. Taken down to the framing, D Maahs Construction updated the home’s look. Wood floors were installed throughout the space. The bathrooms were updated with modern fixtures. New interior alder doors add rustic charm. The smooth walls bestow a streamlined look while boasting improved insulation. The star of the living space is a Spanish Pueblo style fireplace at the entrance, which D Maahs Construction modified to ensure it stood out. By the end of the whole-house remodel, the homeowners were left with a rejuvenated home full of southwestern charm.

HHHH We’ve had numerous contractors in our house over the years, but we’ve never had a group we were more pleased with than the Hubbell guys. They were friendly, courteous and very careful not to disrupt the household. This was a first-class installation, following a precise proposal, which was adhered to meticulously.

Carol and Dick Hrdlicka HHHH Thanks for the excellent installation . Your personnel are outstanding: experienced, patient and skilled. Patching and painting of the ceiling where you removed the swamp coolers is flawless. We’ve talked to friends and they say their finish work isn’t invisible like ours is.

Paul Wrenn HHHH We had the most delightful experience with you and your employees in the design and installation of our Mitsubishi Electric system.

You are blessed with great employees: Zak, Loren, and Nathan have to be three of the best HVAC professionals in the industry with exceptional knowledge, patience and passion! The paint touch-up by Fernando was perfect.

John Onstad, President HHHH Once in a blue moon, you run across a resource that truly impresses. Hubbell hit a home-run with me. The cost proposal was right the first time. No edits or “bait and switch.” The job was estimated to be completed in two days. They took exactly that and not a minute more.The final invoice was exactly as estimated Would I use Hubbell again? Yes, I already have and the service level was the same...just another home-run...outstanding!

BATHROOM REMODEL

Chic and sleek replace ‘90s blah

The homeowners of this 25-year-old home wanted to enhance their space with a modern farmhouse feel. Modern Design + Construction delivered a luxurious master bathroom that would have anyone craving a soak in the freestanding tub. Replacing outdated 1990s finishes, Modern Design added new tile and sleek finishes that brought the bathroom into 2020’s. Since the couple spends a lot of time cooking together, the homeowners also requested a chef’s kitchen with more cabinet and counter space alongside top end appliances. Within four months, Modern Design transformed the bathroom, kitchen, and main hallway into a farmhouse chic space with all the modern conveniences the couple could ask for.
