Explore the over­looked val­ue of ICF con­struc­tion in resilient build­ing insur­ance, low­er­ing risk while boost­ing safe­ty and effi­cien­cy.

Tech­no­log­i­cal inno­va­tion is chang­ing the way we live, and homes are no excep­tion. From light­ing and secu­ri­ty to air qual­i­ty and com­fort, sys­tems that once required man­u­al input are now han­dled auto­mat­i­cal­ly, adjust­ing in real time to meet chang­ing con­di­tions.

Green build­ing con­struc­tion meth­ods have emerged as options for not only reduc­ing envi­ron­men­tal foot­prints, but also cut­ting down ener­gy expens­es. These meth­ods are based on eco-friend­ly prac­tices and mate­ri­als, and are aimed at pro­mot­ing both envi­ron­men­tal and eco­nom­ic sus­tain­abil­i­ty.

Both ver­ti­cal and hor­i­zon­tal ICFs con­struc­tion cre­ate mois­ture- and dis­as­ter-resis­tant walls with excel­lent R‑values. But which is the bet­ter ICF wall?

Cab­ins and cot­tages often start as a sec­ond home or week­end retreat. ICF con­struc­tion ensures year-round use of the cab­in.
