Go Green!

More and more we have become aware of the impact of building upon our environment. We can work to build home that sits lightly on the land, minimizing the effect of building. Many of the decisions we make as we design and build our homes have long-ranging results. Building a green, sustainable home gives us the opportunity to maximize the efficient use of resources, have a healthier building, and have long term cost savings.

Green Building at its Finest

Green and sustainable buildings use products that are readily renewable, provide for long term energy efficiency and will maintain their structural integrity far longer than typical buildings. Timber frames are by nature of their structure, green, and when enclosed with insulated panels, provide energy savings for years to come.

Benefits of a timber frame that equate with green building:
Maximum building life
Design flexibility
Energy conservation
Timber is a renewable resource

A green home addition should live well and rest easily on it’s land. It should be a healthy home, with abundant natural light and natural ventilation. Since both timber frame and panels are built in a controlled environment, making best use of materials, there is very little waste either in production or on site. A green, sustainable home will provide a home that uses resources sensibly while reducing the impact of building on the environment. A well-sited timber frame addition with structural insulated panel enclosure goes a long way toward building a better tomorrow as you renew your home today.
