At On Time Contractors, we believe the best details are often the ones you don’t see.

We’re installing a vented soffit with concealed ventilation — unlike traditional vented soffits, there are no visible vents. The ventilation is discreetly hidden between the boards, creating a cleaner, seamless, and more sophisticated architectural look.

Proper ventilation without compromising the design.

On Time Contractors — craftsmanship is in the details.

We are building 25' x17' deck from tone treated wood and discovered that Home Depot's tone treated wood is much lighter than Menard's. It looks almost like pressure treated. Maybe it was a bad batch? We are switching it out.

To make this home more energy efficient we have installed in floor heat for the entire house and poured 3/4'' of gypcrete over it. Gypcrete creates a thermal mass and when it gets hot from the in floor heat, it will hold the temperature and you can lay down on the warm floor in the winter. With a regular duct work and forced air furnaces hot air risers while the area by the floor stays cool. and the floor in the winter stays cold. With in floor heat the floor stays warm and you spend less money on gas to heat your home.
Here is the link to the video how we did the pour.

The project that we are working on now we installed 6'' EPS foam insulation for the in floor heat. Why install 6'' foam insulation under concrete slab when code doesn't require any? Ground temp in MN in the winter under the frost line is 46-52 degrees. This is why basement floors are very cold in the winter and very moist in the summer. While the majority of the builders do not install any insulation because it is not required by code, some install 1.5''-2'' if a customer wants to have in floor heat. For this project we installed 6'' instead of typical 1.5-2''.
6'' of insulation under the concrete slab provides a thick thermal break between the ground and concrete floor, and basement floors will stay warm in the winter and dry in the summer. Does it cost more money to do this? Yes, it costs about $5/sq ft for labor and materials for a typical basement to install, but it will pay for itself in less than 3 years assuming that energy prices stay the same, but we know they are always going up.
