ENERGY-EFFICIENT GREEN BUILDING

Being green in the construction world is as much about process as it is materials. It involves use of products that are project appropriate and time tested. It also means accommodating your desire to use more environmentally friendly products in your project. If incorporating green products and methods is a priority for you, we will guide you through what is available and what makes sense for your project and budget.

At a minimum, all our building projects are designed to be highly energy efficient. We build using dense pak blown cellulose as well as spray foam insulations for a tight envelope, add outside fresh air with heat recovery ventilators (HRV), and use interior materials and finishes that have low VOC (volatile organic compounds), including trims, plywoods and paints. We are also dedicated to minimizing negative environmental impact from building. Waste from projects is kept to a minimum and recycling is practiced when ever possible and practical.
