"US Green Building Council's Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design certification has become a badge of honor in the world of design, construction and home ownership.  We are striving for a high level LEED certification on several of our projects.  According to a recent article in the New York Times, LEED Certification has taken on a "designer label" status.  For most of our clients however, status takes a serious back seat to their commitment to doing what is right for the environment.  Their homes play a role in demonstrating their commitment to the environment, and are becoming part of their legacy."

Construction Begins with Auger-Cast Driven Pilings - a neighborhood friendly

alternative to "driven" pre-cast pilings. .

Concrete is pumped through the center of the drill-bit to specifications

managed by an on-site structural engineer.

After Concrete pilings have cured, the site is excavated to reveal the pilings.

Pilings are cut to the proper height, re-bar is trimmed and readied for piling caps.
