GREEN CONSULTING

Workshops & Classes

We periodically offer Green Building 101 workshops. Please visit the BGBG for more information.  The classes qualify for Continuing Ed credit for both AIA and the Colorado Realtor’s Association (Van ED).

 Feedback from our workshops:

“The class was AWESOME…I learned so much. Now I am ready to build on my own. Also, the next day, I received a call from a gentleman in Louisville who wanted to talk to a realtor about adding green items to his existing house, evaluations, and whether he can make the investment back when selling in a couple of years.  I used a lot of knowledge from the class.  It was perfect.  Thanks again!”

– Pam Oden, Realtor, Remax

“I have taken college classes on energy and have attended numerous workshops on green homes.  I learned more in this workshop from Scott and Ron than in all of my past educational activities combined.  They pulled it all together for me.”

- J.C. Martel, Center for Resource Conservation

Fire Resistant Construction

Many of our homes are built in the mountains of Colorado where there is a high risk of wildfires. By incorporating state of the art fire resistant construction techniques that have been carefully designed to simultaneously create highly energy efficient green homes we can achieve many goals at the same time.

This topic has been the subject of a great deal of attention since the Labor Day Fire in Fourmile Canyon. On October 3rd, 2010 we gave a presentation on the topic at the Four Mile Rebuild Forum.

Additionally, we have compiled some of our favorite tips on the subject.
