The things we do to Keep GREEN |
| Remodeling Starts Here! Do you want to work with a Green Home Addition Builder? We take actions to reduce construction related waste, create healthier and more resilient homes, minimize operating costs for homeowners and support local manufacturers and suppliers of resource efficient building materials. |
Our construction materials come from a certified GREEN material supplier.
| We recycle aluminum during demolition phases.
| We drive energy efficient vehicles to jobsites & appointments whenever possible.
| We use OSB sheathing, OSB is made from fast-growing, small-diameter trees that can be harvested from plantations, avoiding the need for cutting old-growth.
| We caulk around windows and door frames to prevent air infiltration.
| We install low-flow shower heads (<2.5 gpm - 22% of individual water use is showers).
| We install high efficiency low-flow toilets, such as those from American Standard, Kohler, and Toto.
| We install light dimmers where possible.
| We install fluorescent lighting in recessed cans & lamps.
| We install motion sensor lighting where applicable to provide outdoor lighting only when someone is present.
| We ensure that every cavity of your home addition is well insulated.
| We maintain dust control during interior demolition and remodeling. (All areas not being worked on are quarantined with plastic sheets. If interior doors separate the work area than we tape around the door especially the gap on the bottom) This improves air quality in the parts of the home that are not being remodeled. | Even our website is hosted at a carbon-neutral organization: DreamHost.
| YouGet all the credit and the benefits of using a remodeling company that cares about you and the world we live in! | | Don't you want to save energy, help conserve our natural resources, and live in a home that comforts you? |
