Building Green = Durability

This commentary explains perfectly our decision to design and build “Green”. Building for the long haul and building correctly not only saves materials and energy, but saves the owner money in utility costs and repairs.

No matter whom I speak to about green building, the conversation always seems to circle back to what I and many consider to be the most important aspect of a sustainable home: durability. It’s a term I define broadly as a house built using proper installation techniques, with an awareness of building science principles and the right combination of products and details that will keep it leak-free, mold-resistant, and rock solid for years to come.
