St Barts Renovation:
Anguilla Construction:
|
This is the web site for the three villas that I built on Anguilla and the villa that I am
renovating in St Barts (see Azu Villa Renovation Page), plus
tropical construction tips and resources as well. These construction projects started in 1997, although
land acquisition and architectural planning started in 1995. Every stage of the construction is recorded here.
We rent the villa in St Barts and the guest cottage in Anguilla (La Vanda)
and the villa at the top of the Anguilla property (Mimosa), but we
keep the beachfront house and pool for our own use. And we
have created a name and web page for the overall completed property:
Bellamare
For details on the main Anguilla beachfront house, visit the Residence Construction Page.
For the technology center,
visit the "Clubhouse" Construction Page.
And finally, for the guest cottage, our first attempt at construction on Anguilla,
visit the La Vanda Construction Page.

We use three Mosquito Magnets to keep down the bug population on our
property and are happy with them. Here is a supplier that promises
the lowest price:
Mosquito
Magnet Depot - Lowest price guarantee on Mosquito Magnets; effective
control for mosquitoes and no-see-ums.
Where to Get 3-D Insteel Panels?
Some of the links we have for 3D panels, which we used in our
constructions, are now dead. Andy Fox at Georgia Tech found this supplier
in Vista, California:
Where to Get Stainless Hinges?
We get a lot of requests for where to buy stainless steel hinges. George Rathgeber
in the Bahamas has good experiences with
JEFCO
They have a wide variety available in stainless. I spoke to a super gal
named Charlene who was very informative and helpful. She related that she
does a lot of business with people in the Bahamas and she has had no
problems with their hinges holding up to the corrosive environment of the
beach. Their number is: (954) 527-4220.
