Single-Family Residential

Imagine, "A Home with a Difference". For most people, their home is the largest investment that they will make in their lifetime, so why not make it a wise one. An Insulated Concrete Form (ICF) home offers lower energy bills, a healthier living environment with an unlimited list of design possibilities.

ICF homes are the latest breakthrough in concrete technology for the residential construction industry. ICF's consist of stay-in-place polystyrene forms that are initially used to form the fresh concrete and end up being the insulation for the walls of the building.

 

An ICF home has many benefits over a conventional home constructed from traditional building materials. Due to the high insulation factor and low air leakage in the home an ICF home will experience lower heating bills in the winter and lower cooling costs in the summer.

 

Nothing beats the solidity of concrete for the reduction of sound transmission. Having a wall constructed of concrete sandwiched by insulation on both sides produces an environment on the inside of the home which is virtually free from the noise and the distractions of the outside world.

 

By incorporating concrete floors in the home design the sound transmission between the different levels in the home is reduced even further. The home theatre system can be booming in the den while you enjoy your favorite storybook in the family room.

 

ICF homeowners agree that once you own a home constructed with ICF technology you will never live in a home constructed from traditional framing materials. Join the rapidly growing list of happy homeowners and insist that your next home is constructed with ICF.
