Green Remodeling & Environmentally Conscious Renovation Practices In Duluth

In recent years, Home Solutions Pro Inc. has seen more and more Duluth homeowners opting for green remodeling projects. Whether it's because they want to be more environmentally conscious when it comes to their home improvement or they know eco-friendly homes are of higher value, we think it's a great way to do things. This is why as a home builder and handyman in Duluth, we also strive to be as "green" as possible when working on remodeling projects in our area.

Green remodeling involves seeking out energy efficiency, conserving resources, using recycled materials, and creating healthier indoor environments. If every home remodeling project was treated with these things in mind, each homeowner would experience lower utility costs, improved home comfort, and healthier air quality, all of which sounds pretty great, right? If you'd like to experience these benefits in your next remodeling project, all you have to do is pair up with Home Solutions Pro Inc. and see exactly what we're about when it comes to green remodeling.

Environmentally Conscious Renovation

When we take on a green remodeling project, there are a few techniques we use to ensure that you end up getting the most out of your home once we're done. These include:

1. Passive solar design - This is useful for natural heating and cooling of the house. Skylights, floor-to-ceiling windows, or greenhouse rooms in the house would mean too much heat gain, making the building hot. This would require your air conditioning unit to work harder than it needs to.
2. Attic spaces ventilation - Attic spaces can also accumulate heat, especially in hot climates, thereby causing the house to become very hot. On the other hand, moisture will remain in these attic spaces which are not ventilated, causing the wood to rot and smell.
3. Use of recycled or renewable materials - We ensure the materials used to remodel your home are not damaging to the environment. Some examples are using waste wood to build decks, using materials that are locally produced and can be renewed easily, or recycled wood for the flooring of the home.
4. Use of safe materials - Products that are water-based, non-toxic, and biodegradable are more environmentally friendly, and we always aim to use these kinds of materials in your remodel. We also ensure that there are no materials that contain ozone-depleting chemicals, which are detrimental to the environment.
