ICFs - Insulating Concrete
Forms - are a great way to
improve the energy
efficiency of your home.
ICF homes are better
insulated (R50) much quieter
and much cleaner. ICFs offer
significant savings on energy
costs compared to the cost of
heating and cooling over a
conventional stick framed
home! An ICF home is fire
safe, environmentally
friendly and will stand the
test of time.
Insulating Concrete Forms are constructed with
high density polystyrene (styrofoam) blocks inside
and outside. They are available in different widths,
but we typically use an 8" wall.
The blocks are glued together to form the outer
walls of the house, with steel rebar tied vertically
and horizontally inside.
The window and door openings blocked out, and the
concrete wall is then poured to fill the formed walls
and give you the beginning of one of the best home
construction methods available!

Polyurethane Foam Insulation
In place of fiberglass insulation, the
polyurethane foam insulation is
sprayed in place, filling ever corner
and every joint.
