Our foundations are the best in the industry.
We fully understand how critical it is to a well-built home. We build steel reinforced concrete with continuous footers for girders and beams. Our girders are actually steel I-beams. Unlike conventional wood, steel has superior strength and will not shrink or compress. Our Stem Walls are much stronger than conventional code requirements. Utilizing Thermal Mass construction we build sealed conditioned crawl spaces & absolute dry waterproof basements, both are insulated and both with a poured reinforced concrete slab/floor. Literally no dirt under your house! ESMB developed this exclusive method by incorporating both building science technology and green build practices. The result is a dry pressurized crawl space or basement that is not susceptible to dampness, mold, critters and termites while dramatically reducing heat and air conditioning energy costs.
“All Homes are designed, few homes are designed well”
Thermal Mass construction Throughout
When building a conventional home with wood framing, ESMB only uses genuine sawn lumber for floor joists and wall studs. Conventional sawn lumber is much stronger, has less deflection and is naturally more fire resistant than fabricated floor joists commonly known as T.J.I.’s. Fabricated floor joists (TJI’s) are made with wood chips and glue (known accelerants) and will actually delaminate over time. The (TJI’s) have an estimated lifespan of about 50 years. From the footing of the foundation to the last shingle on the roof, our building materials are carefully selected for quality, value, & performance. We stay on the cutting edge of our industry carefully researching and scrutinizing the latest innovations concerning materials and methods of construction.
