Construction methods

Construction methods we build with.

Our construction-method library brings together flyers and visual explainers on performance, assemblies, and building practice.

Energy-Smart Upgrades

Energy-Smart Upgrades

Renovations are the best moment to cut energy costs: better windows, air sealing, and heating upgrades while walls are already open.

Insulation Upgrades

Insulation Upgrades

Older North Shore homes routinely fail modern comfort standards. We upgrade insulation during every renovation that opens a wall or ceiling.

Rain Screen Assemblies

Rain Screen Assemblies

When a renovation touches the exterior, we rebuild wall assemblies with proper rain screen detailing suited to coastal rainfall.

Airtightness Testing

Airtightness Testing

Blower door testing verifies that a renovated home actually performs, instead of guessing at drafts and heat loss.

Indoor Air Quality

Indoor Air Quality

Ventilation planning, HRV integration, and material choices that keep renovated homes healthy for the people living in them.
