Frequently Asked Questions
     

  Speed of Installation
  SIPs slash costly time delays and increase efficiency. SIPs can be installed 70% faster than a comparible insulated framed wall. SIPs are 250% stronger and eliminate on-site delays due to weather. SIP are completely predictable and reduce costly labor delays and material delivery problems. We plan every phase of the project so that installation times are maximzed and labor is minimized.

  Energy Efficiency
  The greatest "source" of heat loss is thru the roof. With the use of the SIPs, you can expect that your savings in energy costs may be reduced by a minimum of 60% and, the efficiency will increase every year as the cost of gas and/or electric continues to rise. The rigid insulation (EPS) is non-toxic and EPA-approved, which is both fire and smoke rated to provide the ultimate in comfort and performance.

  Installed Costs
  SIPs are manufactured under rigid and predictable quality control requirements. You get the benefit of precise material and labor control. Since labor is the single costliest item in construciton, when you 'manage' labor, you manage costs that can not otherwise be controlled. Waste (another 7-8% cost) is virtually eliminated.
