Green Building Companies in Hartville

“I was very impressed with their work. The detail was excellent, I was out of town while they did the work. I was pleasantly surprised to see how good it looks. When I got back. They didn’t leave a mess cleaned up.. Ben kept me updated on everything. It was very easy to communicate and professional.”

“Hallie was an easy person to collaborate with while designing my age-in-place, zero-steps, energy efficient home. Her ideas and suggestions were valuable in arranging for flexible spaces connected to the greater outdoors. Because I live in a frequently cloudy location, it is important for me to avail myself of available natural light. Hallie tracked the path of the sun throughout the seasons then strategically situated windows to maximize natural light throughout the day and through the seasons. My home is airy and light filled with a robust connection to the surrounding environment. Hallie has extensive technical knowledge of green building, including prioritizing excellent interior air quality, efficient heating and cooling systems, and suitable insulation types and applications. Besides being energy efficient, she designed my new home to be solar-ready. My home, which will soon be completed, has to satisfy many roles. It will serve me as an age-in-place home that is also accessible for a frequent visitor who has significant physical disabilities. The extra wide doorways, halls, and roll-in shower are equipped to accommodate a wheel chair user. Furthermore, by locking two doors, my home will provide me with some retirement income as a two bedroom, one bath rental with its own entrance. This is a lot to achieve from a single-family, three-bedroom home, and with Hallie’s guidance and design knowledge it has been effectively accomplished. Additionally, Hallie paid attention to the livability of my home with strategically placed widows to watch the sunrise, and a much desired highly functional and beautiful kitchen, with an attached porch. In my garage she included a large south-facing window design for starting seeds as well as a much-needed dog wash. It is her excellent listening skills and her being attuned to my lifestyle that will make my new home comfortable throughout the year, and a joyful space for my visitors and myself. Working with Hallie has been a positive collaborative experience that resulted in a multifunctional, energy efficient, and decidedly livable home.”

“Hurst did an outstanding job designing and building our outdoor Dream Space - complete with a spacious porch for entertaining and an outdoor kitchen, all perfectly blending into our home as if it was always here. The owners were very hands on, always available for questions. The designer did a fantastic job bringing our shared vision to life. Additionally the communication, planning, and craftsmanship were all exceptional. The entire staff was a pleasure to work with, and the contractors they selected for the more complicated aspects were at the top of their trades. Look forward to our next project with Hurst!”
