Your Turnkey Net-Zero Home Partner

We are a dedicated design-build team specializing in high-performance, net-zero homes that merge architecture, engineering, and construction into one accountable process. From feasibility and modeling to permits, procurement, and commissioning, we deliver verified outcomes, transparent budgets, and long-term support—making advanced sustainability practical, beautiful, and financially smart.

Net-Zero Home Fundamentals

Understand exactly how a net-zero home balances ultra-low energy demand with on-site renewable generation, delivering measurable comfort, resilience, and lifetime savings through science-based design, airtight construction, and verified performance benchmarks tailored to your climate and lifestyle.

Defining Net-Zero and Performance Targets

We establish clear performance objectives using recognized metrics like site and source energy, HERS Index, and modeled Energy Use Intensity. These targets guide decisions about envelope, systems, and renewables, ensuring the final home achieves true net-zero in real-world operation, not just on paper or during isolated test conditions.

Climate-Specific Strategies and Resilience

Your home is engineered around local climate data, grid reliability, and extreme weather risks. We tailor passive strategies, insulation levels, glazing ratios, shading, and battery sizing to keep your family comfortable during outages, minimize seasonal energy swings, and protect your investment against future heat waves, cold snaps, and rising utility rates.

Certification Pathways and Documentation

We map your project to trusted standards like ENERGY STAR, DOE Zero Energy Ready, and PHIUS, then assemble the documentation required for approvals and incentives. This structured approach provides accountability, improves appraisals and resale value, and demonstrates that your home’s net-zero claims are both verifiable and independently recognized.

Passive Design and Architecture

A business professional planning for alternative energies.

Architectural decisions shape energy outcomes, so we integrate passive solar principles, thermal zoning, and daylighting with functional floor plans, achieving comfort, beauty, and efficiency while respecting site constraints, neighborhood context, and your personal aesthetic preferences and space requirements.

  • Orientation, Massing, and Solar Access We analyze your site’s sun path, shading, and prevailing winds to position living spaces for winter heat gain, control summer overheating, and enable future solar arrays. Smart massing supports daylight, stormwater management, and privacy, while preserving views and neighborhood harmony through thoughtful setbacks and glare mitigation strategies.
  • Daylighting Without Overheating Glazing types, window sizes, and interior finishes are coordinated to distribute natural light deeply without glare or excessive solar gain. Exterior shading, tuned overhangs, and selective low-e coatings balance luminous comfort and HVAC loads, minimizing artificial lighting needs while preventing hotspots that undermine thermal comfort and energy performance.
  • Thermal Zoning and Space Planning We cluster rooms by usage patterns and thermal needs, separating quiet, low-load areas from high-activity zones. This enables right-sized systems, duct routes that actually fit, and optional zoning controls, ensuring bedrooms stay serene and consistent while kitchens and living spaces adapt effortlessly to entertaining, cooking, and dynamic occupancy.

High-Performance Building Envelope

Your envelope dictates energy demand and comfort, so we specify insulation assemblies, airtightness details, and high-performance windows that reduce heat loss, block moisture, and silence outside noise, creating a healthy, durable shell that dramatically lowers mechanical system size and lifetime operating costs.

Renewable Energy Systems

We design solar and storage solutions that align with your mode of living, handle critical loads during outages, and integrate seamlessly with utilities for net metering, providing predictable bills and resilient power without compromising aesthetics or roof longevity.

HVAC and Healthy Indoor Air

Right-sized heat pumps, balanced ventilation, and smart controls deliver consistent comfort, humidity management, and clean air in every room, meeting strict efficiency goals while reducing noise and maintenance compared with traditional systems sized by rules of thumb or outdated calculation methods.

Water, Waste, and Efficiency

Reduce potable water demand and protect resources through rainwater capture, greywater reuse, efficient fixtures, and leak detection, gaining resilience and lowering utility costs while supporting a healthy landscape and responsible stormwater management that benefits your home and neighborhood.

Rainwater Harvesting and Storage

We size cisterns based on roof area, rainfall patterns, and intended uses—from irrigation to non-potable indoor supply—ensuring filtration and overflow controls meet code and protect quality. Thoughtful distribution supports drought resilience, reduces stormwater burdens, and offers an elegant, visible expression of your home’s commitment to circular resource use.

Greywater Reuse and Plumbing Design

Greywater systems route lightly used water from showers and laundry through treatment steps appropriate to your jurisdiction, then distribute it for sub-surface irrigation. Integrated plumbing layouts minimize hot water wait times, reduce pipe heat loss, and make maintenance easy, delivering everyday convenience with measurable efficiency gains.

Efficient Fixtures and Leak Detection

We specify WaterSense fixtures, pressure-compensating aerators, and smart valves that automatically close upon detecting unusual flow. Whole-home monitoring tracks usage trends, sends alerts, and supports predictive maintenance, preventing damage and unnecessary bills while encouraging mindful consumption through live dashboards accessible from any connected device.

Low-Carbon Materials and Health

Choose durable, low-embodied-carbon materials and healthy finishes that perform beautifully, reduce environmental impact, and safeguard indoor air quality, supporting sustainability goals without sacrificing aesthetics, longevity, or tactile comfort.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does a net-zero home mean, and how do you achieve it reliably?
A net-zero home produces as much energy annually as it consumes, measured by trusted metrics and verified with monitoring. We achieve this by combining passive design, airtight construction, right-sized heat pumps, balanced ventilation, and on-site solar plus optional batteries, then commissioning systems and validating performance data against your energy model.
How does the free quote work and what information should I provide?
Our free quote begins with a discovery call, site address, rough size, bedroom count, and desired features like solar storage or rainwater reuse. We assess site constraints, incentives, and code requirements, then deliver a written estimate with scope options, timeline assumptions, and next steps for accurate pricing through detailed design and modeling.
How long does a turnkey net-zero build typically take from start to finish?
Timelines vary by jurisdiction and complexity, but most projects follow a 2–4 month design and permitting phase, 6–9 months of construction, and 2–4 weeks of commissioning and homeowner training. Early procurement of long-lead items and proactive inspections help us maintain a predictable schedule without compromising quality or safety.
What is included in your turnkey service, and what extras might add cost?
Turnkey includes architecture, engineering, energy modeling, permitting, construction, commissioning, and training. Potential extras include extensive site work, septic or well systems, extraordinary structural conditions, high-end custom finishes, oversized battery banks, and unique features like living roofs. We identify optional upgrades and price them transparently before you commit.
How much does a net-zero home cost and how can incentives help?
Costs depend on size, finishes, and site conditions, but envelope quality, HVAC efficiency, and solar drive value. Incentives, tax credits, and utility rebates for heat pumps, insulation, solar, and batteries can reduce upfront costs significantly. We structure the project to capture available programs and maximize lifetime savings with clear ROI.
How do you ensure quality, safety, and long-term performance after move-in?
We implement documented quality checks, third-party testing, and thorough commissioning before handover. After occupancy, monitoring and seasonal tune-ups verify performance, while maintenance plans and clear manuals keep systems running efficiently. Warranties, responsive service, and data-driven support protect comfort, health, and savings for the long run.
