Advanced framing techniques

Advanced framing is framing your building for minimal air intrusion. We have a few different options of ways to accomplish this. The main thing we are doing that is not common practice in this area is sealing plates and any gaps in the structure as we proceed and changing the typical framing style to reduce or eliminate dead air space in your walls. Solid headers, better installation practices with windows and doors create a tighter more energy efficient home. All of our sub contractors are on board with our way of creating a greener more efficient home for you. 

For us to build your house as energy efficient as possible the cost is minimal approximately .50-1.50 a square foot. And the reason the cost is so low is because as a general contractor and builder we dont have the overhead that a GC that subs all phases out to other contractors. Basically we cab build a better product for the same or less money than many others in our industry 

All of these practices lead to a few major things. Less expensive heating and cooling of your home. A air tight home is much more cost effective over the life of your home. Heating and cooling bills can be expensive and anything we can do to make that better is not only better for your wallet its also better for the environment.
