New Construction — SIP and CBS
We build from the ground up — site through certificate of occupancy — in concrete block (CBS) or structural insulated panels (SIP), as the state-certified general contractor of record. One team carries the permit, the schedule and the trades, so there is one number to call and one name answering for the work.
A new build is a sequence before it is a structure: survey and site work, foundation, shell, dry-in, rough trades, the county's inspections at each stage, finishes, and the final sign-off that lets anybody move in. Most of what goes wrong on a job goes wrong in the order rather than in the workmanship.
CBS — concrete block with a poured tie beam — is the South Florida standard. SIP is a different method: a rigid foam core laminated between two structural skins, so the panel is the frame, the sheathing and the insulation in one piece and the envelope goes up in days. The honest trade is that SIP decisions move earlier — openings and layout are fixed before the panels are cut — so we price it as its own method and show you both.
Additions are built the same way and tied into the house that is already there: the existing structure, the existing systems and a family still living in it.

SIP construction
- Continuous insulation and a tighter envelope: less heat getting in, lower cooling bills.
- Strength under wind load: the panel is the frame and the sheathing in one engineered piece.
- A faster dry-in, so the inside is out of the weather sooner.
- Less waste on the job site: the panels arrive cut to the plan.
- Quieter rooms: the panel's solid core damps outside noise.
Eco-friendly is how we build, not a badge: insulated panels, air-conditioning sized to a load calculation, and less waste on site.
