Green Home Construction

Did you know that by increasing the amount of natural light in your home you can reduce chronic respiratory diseases, which include allergies and asthma?  We can design your rooms to allow the entrance of sunlight – it has been proven to be a natural and powerful healer – the healing power of sunlight and vitamin D is a medical fact.

Heating and cooling interior spaces can account for 50 percent of a home's energy use. That’s the reason we use foam installations and build strong exterior walls. We can stop drafts with spray foam insulation - it seals to the surfaces in walls and attics and prevents air gaps. We can use high-efficiency, Energy Star-rated windows and of course we caulk all gaps around windows and doors.

You can also consider Energy Star equipment for heating and cooling systems, water heaters, and light fixtures. The advantages of reduced Energy Costs — according to government reports – include the fact that Energy Star appliances can reduce your home appliance energy usage, and the related costs, by anywhere from 10 percent to as much as 50 percent. That’s a significant annual savings and BCGI can help you initiate it for your home!
