Commercial Construction &
​Energy Sustainability Consulting

Church, business, light commercial, and multi-purpose construction
​We start with reviewing your needs, studying any existing buildings and operations, help you plan how you would like to operate in the future, and then collaboratively design a building that cost-effectively meets your goals. Better building organization can improve the effectiveness of your operations and increase employee satisfaction.
 
For churches, we are accustomed to talking with the many stakeholders in your community and working with committees to collaboratively develop and present ideas for community approval and fund raising. For design purposes, many church building areas are well served with high energy saving construction, while sanctuaries and similar rooms that are used for short periods of time with large numbers of people and then left empty, require a different construction for energy and moisture management.
 
For commercial and manufacturing clients, available post-process energy can be captured and repurposed with heat recovery systems to decrease purchased process energy or cover building energy requirements.
 
With decades of experience serving clients, meeting user needs, delivering quality design and coordinated drawings, with construction savvy and strong contractor relationships, we can help you navigate the visioning, planning and construction process to achieve the building you are looking for. We’ll be around during move-in and while your up and operating to answer any questions and help you celebrate your accomplishments.
