Responsible House

Over 20 years of general contracting experience coupled with our expertise in energy efficient building uniquely suites us for energy efficient custom building and renovation. Projects with more challenging elements, that other builders might shy away from, are attractive to us as we enjoy thinking through problems and finding the best solution. We are accustomed to working with architects or home owners who just have an "idea." The size of the job doesn't matter to us, we bring our same work ethic to everything we do. As Energy Efficiency Experts, our specialties are energy efficient new construction, remodels and additions, energy retrofits, and energy audits. We pride ourselves in building and remodeling in the most air-tight and earth-friendly ways to make your house a Responsible House. Our customers see a 30-50% cut in the air leakage in their homes, which results in more comfort, higher air quality and lower energy bills. We can build a new home or addition to the highest environmental standards while also bringing you added comfort, savings and peace of mind. Responsible House is a local, family owned business. William, our president grew up in the valley, attended JMU for his undergraduate studies, and obtained his graduate degree from the University of Illinois. William ultimately chose to do what he loves, build. Melissa is from Richmond and joined the company when she married William in 2011. If you are ready to schedule a meeting with William or if you have any questions, she is the one to contact.
