Certainly you want your home to be comfortable and up-to-date. But you also want a healthy living space. As green builders, we’re on the same page. 

As a certified Build It Green contractor, we specialize in green building practices using materials such as formaldehyde-free fiberglass insulation or other higher efficiency insulations. Our cabinetry and shelving are crafted using MDF, medium density fiberboard, manufactured with formaldehyde-free glue.

 

 

As green remodelers we use eco-friendly materials whenever possible:

• Demolition lumber from your home
• Good quality recycled lumber
• FSC certified lumber and plywood, sustainably grown and harvested
• Engineered lumber made from wood fiber harvested from farm grown trees rather than old growth forests
• Bamboo or recycled wood floors
• Formaldehyde-free fiberglass insulation or recycled cotton insulation
• Water and energy saving fixtures and appliances
• Fiber-cement siding-economical, won't rot, insect proof, fireproof

who share our vision by providing:

• Marmoleum floor coverings rather than vinyl
• Radiant floor heating systems

• High efficiency furnaces for forced air heat
• Indoor paints that emit minimal or no volatile organic compounds
• Cabinets built with sustainably harvested wood
