Go GREEN on Your New Home or Remodel with Benedict Builders!
“GREEN” means many things to many people. For some, it means using only materials from sustainable resources like recycled products or renewable resources such as bamboo. For others, it’s about using products that do not contain harsh chemicals (like formaldehyde) or use harsh chemicals during their manufacturing processes. And yet another group, it means designing in ways that improve energy efficiency and water conservation.
We here at BENEDICT BUILDERS try to incorporate just the right amount of each to fit your project, needs and budget. Whether your project is building a new home with ICF BLOCKS ( Insulated Concrete Form Blocks- R-Value 24 ), changing your windows to Vinyl Insulated Double pane Low-E, installing tankless hot water heaters, or remodeling your home using GREEN Products such as green cabinetry, recycled glass, or concrete counter tops, green label carpets and wood flooring, low-VOC paint and Energy Star appliances. For you these choices can mean energy savings of $1,650.00 per year, compared to conventionally built projects. BENEDICT BUILDERS is committed to the learning process of GREEN BUILDING and REMODELING.
As exciting new technologies, products and scientific breakthroughs constantly emerge, we stay educated on the hows as well as the whys of GREEN. BENEDICT BUILDERS is FGBC certified as a Green Builder and Remodeler and our staff maintains a high level of continuing education each month. 
We have been building Green for many years, since before “Green was in” and many Energy Efficient and Green products come standard on our projects. In fact GREEN can be more cost effective, for example using 2 layers of High-R insulation on the walls of your new addition or home will allow for a A /C unit that costs less to buy and saves you money each month on your energy bills. And this is just one of the many ways to put money back in your pocket!
A GREEN HOME incorporates smart design, technology, construction and maintenance elements to significantly lessen the negative impact of your home on the environment, improve the health of your family, and saves you money on your energy costs.
The opportunities for living a GREENER life at home are limited only by your imagination.
