❄️ IS YOUR HOME LOSING HEAT THROUGH THE ATTIC?

Cold Idaho weather is right around the corner, and one of the biggest places your home can lose heat is through an underinsulated attic.

Before winter arrives, take a few minutes to check:

βœ”οΈ Is your attic insulation evenly distributed?
βœ”οΈ Are there bare spots or areas where insulation is missing?
βœ”οΈ Has insulation been compressed or disturbed?
βœ”οΈ Do you notice dark stains that could indicate air leaks?
βœ”οΈ Are there signs of moisture or roof leaks?

πŸ’‘ HOMEOWNER TIP:

If you can easily see the tops of your attic floor joists above the insulation, there's a good chance your attic could benefit from additional insulation.

Proper insulation and air sealing can help lower heating bills, improve comfort, and reduce heat loss during Idaho's cold winters.

⚠️ Never cover attic ventilation openings, and avoid disturbing insulation that may contain asbestos.

Sawtera is looking for 1–2 experienced construction guys to help on an upcoming remodel.

Looking for people with strong general construction experience who can step into a remodel and actually know what they’re doing.

Bathroom remodel experience is a must.

You need to have:
β€’ Reliable transportation
β€’ Good general construction/remodel experience
β€’ Bathroom experience
β€’ Ability to work independently when needed
β€’ Reliability and good communication
β€’ Flexibility with scheduling and project needs

This is initially for one remodel, but for the right person or crew, it can turn into consistent ongoing work with Sawtera.

Sawtera is looking to add a licensed plumber to our subcontractor list for upcoming residential remodel work in the Nampa/Caldwell area.
We’re looking for someone experienced with bathroom remodels, fixture relocation, tubs/showers, drain work, and crawlspace access.
Must be:
- Properly licensed and insured
- Reliable and responsive
- Comfortable working as a subcontractor
- Able to coordinate well with a GC and other trades
- Interested in ongoing remodel work, not just one project
Experience with custom showers, wet-room style bathrooms, and freestanding tubs is a plus.
Please email [email protected] with your company name, license info, service area, and best contact number. Please do not DM us on Facebook.

Sawtera is continuing to build our subcontractor network.

We’re looking for reliable, professional SUBCONTRACTORS interested in ongoing project work as we continue to grow.

We are specifically looking for:

β€’ Framing / carpentry
β€’ Drywall & texture
β€’ Painting
β€’ Flooring
β€’ Concrete / masonry
β€’ Roofing / siding
β€’ Electrical
β€’ Plumbing
β€’ HVAC
β€’ Excavation / dirt work
β€’ Fencing / decks
β€’ Tile
β€’ Cabinets / countertops
β€’ Other skilled trades

A quick clarification: We received a lot of responses on our last post from general contractors. We respect other GCs, but what we are primarily looking for here are tradespeople and subcontracting crews who understand the subcontractor relationship.

That means Sawtera contracts the project, manages the customer and coordinates the job, and we hire qualified subs to complete specific scopes of work.

We’re looking for subs who:

βœ… Show up when they say they will
βœ… Communicate well
βœ… Carry appropriate licensing/registration and insurance where required
βœ… Take pride in their work
βœ… Can provide clear bids for a defined scope
βœ… Understand that subcontractor pricing needs to leave room for the GC who is selling, managing, coordinating and standing behind the overall project

We are not looking for the cheapest person. We want good people at fair, sustainable subcontractor pricing so we can build long-term working relationships and keep sending work your way.

Our primary service area is Nampa, Caldwell, Emmett, Fruitland, Payette and Weiser.

Interested? Message Sawtera with your trade, service area, contact information, and a few examples of your work.

πŸ‚ CHECK FOR WOOD ROT BEFORE WINTER

Fall is a great time to walk around your home and look for wood that's starting to deteriorate before another wet winter makes it worse.

Pay special attention to:

βœ”οΈ Fascia and trim along the roofline
βœ”οΈ Wood around windows and exterior doors
βœ”οΈ Deck boards, stairs, and railings
βœ”οΈ Fence posts and boards near the ground
βœ”οΈ Areas where water regularly splashes or collects

Quick test: gently press suspicious areas with a screwdriver. If the wood feels soft, spongy, or easily flakes apart, moisture may already be causing rot.

Replacing a small damaged section now is usually much easier than waiting until the damage spreads.

Looking for reliable subcontractors in the Nampa, Caldwell, Emmett, Fruitland, Payette, and Weiser areas.

Sawtera is building out our trade partner network for upcoming remodel and construction projects.

I’m looking to connect with experienced, dependable subcontractors for drywall, painting, flooring, framing/carpentry, tile, electrical, plumbing, and HVAC.

Must be properly registered/licensed for your trade where required, carry current insurance, communicate well, show up when scheduled, and provide clear pricing.

I’m looking for established trade partners who are comfortable working as subcontractors on residential remodel and construction projects.

If interested, email me ([email protected]) with your trade, service area, contact info, proof of insurance/licensing or registration, and a few examples of your work. Please do not message on facebook. I need a clearly written email with all requested information.

Potential for ongoing work for the right people.

Please send all requested information to [email protected]

Thank you

Looking for an individual with epoxy flooring experience to come help me on an upcoming project.

I am not looking to hire an epoxy company or subcontract the job out. I’m looking for someone I can hire to work alongside me who already has experience with floor prep, mixing, pouring, and applying epoxy.

This could turn into steady work for the right person if you also have construction/remodeling skills.

Treasure Valley area. Pay will be negotiated based on experience.

Message me with your epoxy and construction experience if interested.

❄️ DON’T WAIT FOR THE FIRST FREEZE

One of the easiest fall maintenance jobs can also prevent a surprisingly expensive repair: check your outdoor faucets and plumbing before freezing temperatures arrive.

Before winter:

βœ”οΈ Disconnect garden hoses from outdoor faucets
βœ”οΈ Check hose bibs for drips or leaks
βœ”οΈ Make sure frost-free faucets are working properly
βœ”οΈ Drain irrigation or exposed water lines that require winterization
βœ”οΈ Know where your home's main water shutoff is before you actually need it

A frozen pipe can turn a small maintenance item into water damage, drywall repairs, and a much bigger bill.

A few minutes of prevention this fall can save a lot of trouble this winter.
