Introduction: We do all phases of construction. We bring over 40 years of hands-on experience in green, sustainable building and development to your project. New construction, existing homes, light commercial, and environmentally sensitive land use are all part of our repertoire. We were building green long before it was a hot topic. Our passion is building enduring quality while treading lightly on mother earth, and we can show you that being green doesn't have to be expensive. SureGreen can assist with all aspects of green and energy efficient building and development. We offer the following services: * Site assessment and planning * Custom home construction * Existing home remodeling * Light commercial construction and remodeling * LEED AP and CGP consulting * Existing home and building energy audits * Consulting services * Education What our clients are saying: "The most important, and most expensive, lesson we learned is to obtain a contractor who understands and promotes the concepts of energy efficient, green construction, rather than resisting and cutting corners at every step of the way. Experience clearly is important, but so is a willingness to learn about and employ new materials, techniques and technology. Tim Shipley and Chris Frank at SureGreen not only embraced these concepts, but also brought new suggestions to the table that made our house better. Furthermore, Tim provided by far the most accurate and detailed bids, with materials and methods all determined in advance, which meant no surprises or cut corners. We knew exactly what we were getting and what it cost. SureGreen was open, honest and fair when it came to overruns (rare), add-ons, and the contingencies that are inevitable during construction. In short, we could not have completed our house without them. (We can say this with confidence because we tried, with disastrous results.) Chris Frank of SureGreen was on site every day (and sometimes night), overseeing every detail of construction. He insisted on everything being done correctly, identified and often corrected problems before we were even aware of them, and refused to tolerate substandard work. He was not only fair and honest, but also exceedingly patient with our detailed requests, and rather than rolling his eyes at the installation of another cat door, always remained focused on getting us exactly what we wanted. Construction is not always an enjoyable process, but Chris made it fun even when he (or we) wanted to cry. When we started working with Chris, we thought of him as an overqualified foreman; now, we consider him an indispensable partner and friend, without whom we could not have attained our goals." -- Shawna and Sherwood Johnson, Gibsonia, PA

FAQs

  • What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?

    n the context of construction, green is much more than a color. Green building begins with the suitability of the site and assuring that the structure lends itself to the land. Minimizing site disturbance and managing erosion and sediment control during construction is just the beginning. Waste management and use of renewable resources for construction minimizes energy use and impact on our natural resources. Green building methods include efficient foundations, building envelope, indoor environmental quality, water management and sensible exterior hard and soft-scapes. The good news is that all this does not have to come at a cost premium. Many efficient building products have come down in price as demand for them has risen. SUREGREEN’s knowledge with these products and methods assures you that there is no cost premium to account for a learning curve. We have done it and know what it will cost. Energy savings of 30% or more are easily accomplished at no cost premium. Savings of 70% or more are available at a small incremental cost with quick payback. Tax credits, grants and other programs can make once expensive features affordable. The benefits go far beyond energy and cost savings. Comfort, a healthy environment and knowing that you are minimizing your impact on natural resources are the true payoff.
