Align Pro LLC
Green Building Companies
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsAugust 25, 2017
“Align Constructions has done several major projects around our house in the past year and each time Scot and his crew have done an excellent job. Whenever I call Scot with a project he comes over to give me a quotation within 24 hours. His work is always on time and high quality.”
Halm & Perkins, LLC
Green Building Companies
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsNovember 1, 2014
“Halm & Perkins just remodeled our kitchen & 2nd bath (they remodeled our main bath in 2013). They are super courteous, honest & trustworthy! They regularly communicated with us throughout the entire process assuring that the work done met with our expectations, yet within the confines of our budget. They are also extremely creative so they were able to help us determine what would look the best in the end. We are extremely satisfied and thrilled with the end results!”

“Mulder Construction Group added our sunroom and we couldn't be happier. Their quality of work is fantastic. If/when we come up with future projects, we will definitely be calling Silas Mulder.”
Renaissance Conservatories
Green Building Companies
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJune 29, 2012
“I am in the process of selecting the perfect garden bay window for my upcoming kitchen remodel. At first, I was warned by several contractors of potential problems with leakage and how it's a major headache for both installer and homeowner. A couple of big window manufacturers didn't even want to take it on (my proposed window is 48x48, not the small one that most people may associate this window with). However I sourced a few companies that specializes in specialty windows and although I haven't made the final decision (pending some more information), this company in particular stands out for the following reasons: 1) my project gets individual attention from the same person instead of being tossed around to several folks where info can get lost or you have to repeat yourself. My emails get answered in a very timely and helpful manner. 2) they provide beautiful, detailed brochures including their pricing structure so you know exactly what feature cost will cost how much. They even include schematics of the window construction which was personally important to me. It appears that they do all wood windows which I have a concern with because of potential maintenance concerns so I'm awaiting on info if they offer other material options so that's why I haven't graded the company until I make a decision to go with them. Aside from that , my take on this company is excellent personal attention, very helpful and informative written and illustrated product brochures with artful samples of their windows and the overall sense of their attention to quality, detail and beauty.”

Deck or Patio Builder FAQs
The duration of a green building project can vary widely based on its complexity, size, and specific green technologies employed. On average, a green building project may take slightly longer than a conventional one due to the careful selection of materials and implementation of innovative practices. A small to medium residential project could range from 6 to 18 months, whereas larger or more complex projects might take longer. Clear communication with your chosen company will help set realistic timelines.
Green Building Companies prioritize materials that are sustainable, recycled, or recyclable, have low VOC (Volatile Organic Compounds) emissions, and are sourced locally when possible. Design trends lean towards maximizing natural light, improving indoor air quality, and incorporating energy-efficient systems. The choice of materials and design elements is influenced by environmental performance criteria, client preferences, and architectural trends focused on sustainability and resilience.
Homeowners should start by defining their goals for sustainability, budget, and design. Researching green building principles and familiarizing oneself with key concepts such as passive solar design, energy efficiency measures, and water conservation can be very helpful. Gathering inspiration and creating a vision board can also aid in communicating your desires to the building company. Lastly, securing financing and understanding any eligible green building incentives or rebates is crucial.
Challenges such as sourcing specific sustainable materials, adhering to green certification requirements, and managing costs are addressed through experienced project management, innovative problem-solving, and robust supplier networks. Companies stay abreast of the latest green technologies and strategies to navigate these challenges effectively, ensuring project goals are met without compromising on sustainability standards.
