Seattle General Contractors and Green Building

Green building is a loaded term these days.  Seattle general contractors are constantly striving to reuse and recycle in an effort to be more green.  There are many products available to Seattle builders and remodelers that claim to be green and more coming everyday.  What really makes something green?  The reality is that not one thing makes a project green and trade-offs are inevitable when walking the line between green and practical.

What it means to go green-

• Should be a positive benefit to a healthy environment for the inhabitants.
• Should conserve energy which is good for the earth and good for your wallet.
• Should be manufactured with materials that are sustainable.
• Should be durable and able to perform for a long period of time.

In my opinion longevity is of the highest importance.  Seattle green builders and general contractors need to incorporate "green" materials and methods that will last.  Keever and Associates - Seattle general contractors provides green building services and construct buildings that last a lifetime.
