Quality Construction

How do you really judge construction quality? After a project is built, even the best inspector can only access a fraction of the space. To demonstrate our uncompromising commitment to quality (and to help you sleep at night), we ensure each new project is tested by a professional third-party consultant and given a HERS rating, which is analogous to the Miles Per Gallon information provided with a new car purchase. Projects we’ve been involved with have exceeded ENERGY STAR standards by at least 50%, and were 20% more efficient than the average LEED-certified building.

Smart Design

We strive to marry the trendy with the timeless to create a clean, classic feel that you will appreciate for years to come. Resource efficiency (lower utility bills), functionality, and healthy living (e.g. cleaner air) are top priorities. The result is a an environment that will improve your quality of life.

In addition to the above, we implement innovations like flex rooms that let you change your space to suit your needs. Because they often have separate entrances and ensuite baths, they could even be rented out for extra income. Other uses include a den, in-law unit, live-in nanny, or home office.
