BENEFITS OF BUILDING A GREEN HOME

‘GREEN’ HOMES ARE DESIGNED AND BUILT WITH YOU AND THE ENVIRONMENT IN MIND. THEY’RE BUILT TO PROVIDE A SAFE, HEALTHY, AND SUSTAINABLE PLACE TO LIVE, CREATING HEALTHIER FAMILIES AND COMMUNITIES.

AS WE BECOME MORE AWARE OF ENVIRONMENTAL CHANGES, THE DECISION TO BUILD MORE ENERGY-EFFICIENT HOMES HAS BECOME MORE POPULAR.

THERE ARE MANY BENEFITS TO GREEN HOMES, INCLUDING:

​SAVING MONEY

THE WAY THE HOME IS BUILT AND THE MATERIALS USED DURING CONSTRUCTION HELP LOWER ENERGY AND WATER BILLS, AS WELL AS REDUCE MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR COSTS OVER TIME.

ON AVERAGE, GREEN HOMES USE 20-30% LESS ENERGY AND WATER, HELPING TO DECREASE MONTHLY UTILITY BILLS.

EVERYTHING FROM THE LIGHT BULBS TO THE STYLE OF ROOF IS CONSIDERED IN THE DESIGN PROCESS IN ORDER TO CREATE THE MOST ADVANCED ENERGY-EFFICIENT HOME POSSIBLE.

THESE HOMES CAN ALSO QUALIFY FOR DISCOUNTED HOMEOWNERS INSURANCE, PROVIDE CERTAIN TAX BREAKS AND OTHER MONETARY INCENTIVES.

​HEALTHIER LIVING

GREEN HOMES ARE DESIGNED AND BUILT TO MAXIMIZE FRESH AIR INDOORS AND USE MATERIALS THAT MINIMIZE EXPOSURE TO AIRBORNE POLLUTANTS.

ADVANCED INSULATION TECHNIQUES AND EFFICIENT HVAC SYSTEMS ARE USED TO NOT ONLY LOWER ENERGY COSTS BUT TO KEEP YOU COMFORTABLE YEAR-ROUND.

AND, MOST MATERIALS USED TO BUILD YOUR HOME ARE ENGINEERED OR RECYCLED, CONSERVING OUR NATURAL RESOURCES.

​GREATER DURABILITY

UTILIZING GREEN BUILDING METHODS WILL HELP CREATE A HOME THAT IS BUILT TO LAST. THE HIGH-QUALITY MATERIALS USED DURING THE CONSTRUCTION PROCESS REQUIRE LESS UPKEEP AND MAINTENANCE.

THE OVERALL STRUCTURE OF YOUR HOME WILL BE DESIGNED WITH SUSTAINABILITY AS A PRIORITY. YOUR ROOF WILL LAST LONGER WITHOUT NEEDING REPLACEMENT, ALSO HELPING REDUCE THE IMPACT ON LANDFILLS. YOUR FLOORING WILL BE MORE DURABLE, COMFORTABLE, AND HEALTHIER.

EVERYTHING IN YOUR HOME, DOWN TO THE SMALLEST FIXTURE, WILL BE PLACED WITH THE PURPOSE OF LONGEVITY.
