ENERGY EFFICIENT BUILDS (article)

While Compound is a building company and not a global environmental engineering firm, we believe we can do our small bit to make our backyard a better place. Building a passive home is one way to achieve that - Using solar for your energy needs, looking into the impact of the materials that go into your home, and choosing a great architect that knows how to design for efficiency and comfort are some examples. “This passion is what gets us up in the morning, continually learning about better ways to build to make your home something you can be proud of”.

Renovations are another way to minimise your impact and improve the livability of your existing home. “We have found an increasing number of clients are renovating their existing homes in preference to selling and building new”. Given the price of land in our region, this has proven to be a wise decision in many cases.

Improvements to the New Zealand Building Code are inevitable. Building with good quality products, high insulation values, and efficient design, is not only good for the environment and your health but also result in financial gain in the long run. Our experience in building homes in Otago for the past four years has taught us that Central Otago is certainly no exception to the need for quality, healthy homes.

Compound will be proud to be associated with your renovation or new build in Queenstown.

Josh Atkins and his skilled team of builders provide a high level of transparency, communication skills, and of course the highest-quality workmanship.
