By planning ahead and taking simple steps, we can reduce unnecessary waste.
Green building refers to a method of construction that is environmentally responsible and resource-efficient throughout a building’s life-cycle: from design to construction, operation, maintenance, renovation, and demolition.
When we do demolition carefully, we can save useful building materials and things like doors and windows. Donating these to re-use stores allows another user to get more service from the same item and saves the energy and raw materials consumed in making new ones.
When we design carefully, we can help you incorporate natural sunlight into living spaces. This can not only be healthier and more pleasing, but also reduces the need for artificial light and even provides some winter heating.
By being green, Route 9 Design Build is helping the environment stay waste free, and helping you lower your cost of operating your home.
The foundation of any construction project is rooted in the concept and design stages; it is the concept stage that has the largest impact on cost and performance. In order to maintain efficient use of electricity, water, and building materials, Route 9 Design Build is with you from step one, with energy efficiency as our goal.
