Energy Efficiency and Green Building
As one of only a handful of individuals designated by the National Association of Home Builders as Certified Green Professional, Rick Hessick and the team at BR2 Custom Builders, work to incorporate green building principals into homes without driving up the cost of construction. As the market leader in building in using energy-efficient methods and green practices, BR2 can provide a wide range of options in building to deliver long-term energy savings for customers.
BR2 allows customers to be as environmentally-friendly and energy-efficient as they would like to be. We work with our customers to determine the right mix of products and features to preserve the environment, reduce long-term energy consumption, and provide a reasonable payback for the investment. Since not every product achieves the same level of overall savings, BR2 helps customers identify those products that have the proper benefit-to-investment balance for the client’s liking.
We have worked with numerous home owners to help achieve a LEED certification by independent, third-party professionals, allowing home owners significant environmental and financial benefits associated with LEED designation, including:
Lower operating costs and increased home value.
Increased durability of homes utilizing lifetime products.
Conservation of energy and water.
Reduced waste sent to landfills.
Healthier and safer living through improved air quality.
Reduction of greenhouse gas emissions, and reduced impact on natural resources.
Even the building we do as a standard to improve the energy-efficiency of a new home, many other builders will charge as an upgrade.
BR2 is committed to the long-term viability of our new home construction, and we strive to not only create a home of beauty and distinction, we also look to create additional value through energy-efficiency and green building techniques.
