Our purpose is to help you achieve better lives in smaller living spaces.
Since 1960, Americans have doubled the size of the average new home. Today, homes in the USA are two times the size of other developed countries.
With that comes greater housing burden, sprawl and major environmental impacts.
It's time to reduce stress, reduce living costs, simplify, and build a smaller, more efficient home!
We know that smaller homes and ADUs aren't just "little big houses". There is no room for waste or inefficiency in small design. As experienced home builders we use the right design approach to make the most out of space and to deliver what clients want including real kitchens, multifunction spaces, lots of light and great use of the outdoors.
Most people think carpenters build the house, but carpentry represents just 5% of the cost. A home construction project relies on over 20 trades and suppliers which need to be carefully selected and managed to meet quality requirements, budget targets and schedules. As general contractors, we focus on project management to bring great projects in on time and on budget.
As a certified Earth Advantage Builder we hold the skills and experience to build your project to certified standards of efficiency and sustainability. To hold the Earth Advantage seal the home must be built to 25% above code energy standards and meet additional goals for health and sustainability.
