Comox Valley Custom Home Builder Nutmeg Homes Blogs About Building Their Own ICF Home

Follow along on the Nutmeg Homes Blog, as Custom Home Builders Paul And Shareen Witt tackle building their own Insulated Concrete Form home, complete with a living roof.
Paul is an enthusiast for living roofs. They cost more to create than a traditional shingle roof, but they can help conserve a lot of energy, add to the soundproofing qualities of a building, and can dramatically extend the life of a roof.
As a contractor for custom designed housing, he's ready to build your new Insulated Concrete Form home as well. Based in the Comox Valley, Nutmeg Homes uses innovative concrete construction methods in building homes for their clients, to create green, energy efficient new homes which are built to last for generations.
The Nutmeg Homes website features a number of the new custom homes the company has built in and around the Comox Valley since 2000, and features details about the ICF construction process. 
Nutmeg Homes is also currently exploring options for building LEED certified homes. 
ICF Construction offers greater heat retention and soundproofing. The construction techniques also add huge strength to buildings, allowing even more ambitious roof gardens or patios.
