Constructing a home is a monumental effort that requires planning and a significant amount of resources. Resources that, at times, are extracted from our earth in an unsustainable way.
Thanks to thousands of years of improvement and innovation however, today’s green home building is lighter on the earth, and less expensive in maintenance and operation costs.
The sustainable construction landscape is replete with options, different materials and processes that come in all different types and flavors, allowing homeowners to choose what is most important to them. It encompasses green technologies and best practices at all phases of the game, including:
- Design/Planning
- Financing
- Construction Materials
- Other Building Supplies (flooring, insulation, windows, paints, stains, and finishes, etc)
