Dueck Builders

Green and gorgeous As an example of the quality, energy-efficiency, and costeffectiveness that Dueck Builders can achieve, Cal and Josh point to a home they recently completed in Stonewall. That project was a two-storey infill design, and was described by the Winnipeg Free Press as an “elegant yet eco-friendly two-storey.” It comprises about 4,600 square feet of total living space spread out over three levels. The eco-friendliness starts with the home’s design. Taking into account the trees a customer wishes to save, the path of the sun, the length of the overhangs and the services available, all form the basis of good eco-friendly design. From there the foundation – like all Dueck Builders’ homes, is an ICF foundation, which is quieter and more energy efficient than standard concrete foundations. Insulated concrete forms provide continuous insulation on the inside and outside of the basement walls. The insulated forms help to prevent the “cold basement” feel.
