We enjoy working with clients in building beautiful, sustainably crafted spaces. At each step in the building process you will receive choices to help customize your home in varying shades of green.
Spring Green focuses on new construction, additions, and renovations that utilize green materials and technologies. Together, Spring Green and homeowners navigate everything from sub-flooring, to HVAC systems, to hot water heater options. Homeowners can rest assured that they will be able to make healthy, informed decisions with Spring Green’s professional guidance.
New Construction
We begin with site orientation and the elemental choice of exterior walls. We offer advanced framing, timber frame, conventional modified, SIP infill, and ICF options. We are also willing to entertain other models if clients come to the table with a strong interest in alternative methods.
Additions & Renovations
We focus on maximizing the energy efficiency of the existing structure, while enhancing the home environment using non-toxic, sustainable materials. With additions & renovations, we choose products that are locally harvested, renewable, or recycled. So, when we do a covered deck, we pick out Applachian hardwoods that can be used either as structural or decorative members. Using regional hardwoods highlights the natural beauty found in our mountains, while enhancing the look of your home.
