Our Solution

Safety

Fire is a real concern. While homes have gotten safety, thanks largely to regulations and safety improvement, fires are still destroying homes, lives, and memories. Because home fires are still a threat, insurance rates are still increasing. People shouldn’t have to worry whether a fire burns down their home or their savings.

Affordability

It’s harder to own home today than in the past. Home prices are increasing, and mortgage rates don’t make it any easier. This leaves a lot of people stuck in unstable situations or temporary solutions. A house helps create stability. A safe place to sleep and eat can change whole communities.

Durability

We’ve often heard people saying, “We’re building something for the landfill.” That’s not what we want. We want a home that lasts generations. A home that can weather not just your life, but your grandchild’s. Why build something for the next generation to trash, when you can build something they get to keep.

What if there was a way to help create this change. Homes which last longer. Homes a person making a living wage could afford. Homes to help communities get people feeling like people again, like they matter, like they deserve a clean and beautiful place to live. A home someone would say, “I want to live there.”

What if it was Simple. Affordable. Reliable.

Stick frame houses are constructed with five layers. It takes them five layers to get the house stable, insulated, and protected. That’s also five separate costs. Homes built with our stabilized CEBs don’t need five layers. They only need one. It’s pretty simple. The 12” thick wall acts as structure, support, insulation, breathable membrane, and beautiful veneer. One layer, one cost. One layer does the work of five. Making it more affordable. And since our blocks solve The Big 5, reliable is something you can count on.

The solution is under your feet.

Whatever the problem, be part of the solution. Don’t just sit around raising questions and pointing out obstacles. We’ve all worked with that person. That person is a drag.
