Low utility costs... up to 90% savings
Innovative & versatile designs
Numerous plan & covering options
Durable, American-made construction materials
Minimal maintenance
Improved ventilation control

Non-toxic healthy interiors and exteriors
In-house design and construction
Structures of any size
Extra-tall options
Fast construction times
Optimal growing environments

Electrical Insulation

Stopping a fire is not just about construction materials but also about protecting your home. Electrical fires can be prevented by using things like Speaker hoodies & light bulb protection.

Contemporary to Classical Choices

Any style house can be built using concrete, hempcrete, steel and other less framable materials than untreated wood. Contact this team to learn more.
