When Rain & Wind Test the Best: Paraprin Construction’s Approach to Weather’s Toughest Challenges

by Paraprin Construction, Experts in New Home & Custom Home Construction

As we stand in the middle of another summer construction season in northern Ohio, weather is, without a doubt, top of mind for every home builder, contractor, and dream-home aspirer. Building a custom home is already an intricate dance, and when Mother Nature turns on her unpredictable playlist, it takes a maestro to lead.

Enter Paraprin Construction: the northern Ohio builder that’s turning custom home visions into dream home realities despite the challenges posed by our wild Ohio weather. I sat down with their COO, Jon Sherer, and Senior Project Manager, Dave Linna, to delve into how they navigate the tricky terrains of excessive rain and wind during construction.

“Weather, especially in Ohio, can be a wild card,” said Jon, leaning forward with a glint in his eye. “It’s about planning, preparedness, and quick adaptation. In our years of building homes, we’ve seen it all. And every time we face a challenge, we emerge with a lesson and an even stronger approach.”

The impacts of excessive rain and wind on new home construction range from soil erosion and safety risks to potential mold growth and decreased productivity. With Paraprin’s stellar reputation, it’s clear they’ve discovered ways to manage these issues seamlessly. Dave Linna weighed in, highlighting their dynamic strategies.

“We’ve always got buffer days in our schedules to account for unpredictable weather. But it’s not just about the wait; it’s about what we do in the meantime,” Dave emphasized. “Protecting our materials, securing ongoing structures, even sometimes working flexible hours based on the weather forecast. It’s a 360-degree approach.”

It’s this attention to detail, this dedication to not just getting the job done but getting it done right, that sets Paraprin apart. When I brought up the topic of materials being affected by the rain, Jon was quick to elaborate on their approach.

“We’ve had situations where the forecast predicted clear skies, and then a surprise rainstorm would hit us,” Jon recalled. “But with our proactive measures, like storing sensitive materials offsite or under protective covers, we’ve prevented any significant damage. It’s all about thinking two steps ahead.”

Dave echoed this sentiment, emphasizing the importance of regular safety briefings. “The well-being of our team is paramount. We ensure that everyone is well-aware of the risks associated with wet conditions and knows how to navigate safely. After all, it’s the people who make Paraprin the trusted name it is today.”

Indeed, it’s clear that Paraprin’s approach is both holistic and people-centric. As we wrapped up our conversation, I couldn’t help but feel a surge of confidence in the homes they build and the hands that build them. Rain, wind, or shine, Paraprin Construction remains the name you can trust to turn your custom home vision into a lived-in dream.

As Jon Sherer aptly put it, “Nature might test us, but at Paraprin, we pass with flying colors every single time.”

Speaking of turning custom home visions into dream home realities, Jon boasts about the homes they’re building at Cold Creek Crossing in Sandusky & the incentive the city is offering to those who build their dream homes there.

“We’re currently crafting these dream homes at Cold Creek Crossing in Sandusky, using premium materials like Pella windows, because we believe in creating nothing but luxury for our clients,” Sherer proudly states.

He adds, “With the city of Sandusky offering a 10-year tax abatement for those building residences and our partnership with Civista Bank, working closely with mortgage banker and CTP loan expert Tim Ott, we ensure the financial journey towards your dream home is as smooth as a well-oiled engine.”
