Company Description:
Reiss Building and Renovation has been building custom homes with a focus on quality and craftsmanship since the early 1980's. We have also been dedicated to educating our customers about "green" construction or sustainable building practices since the company has started. Our company has been and continues to be actively involved in the development of the Vermont Builds Greener Program which is a state wide voluntary program that certifies homes that have been built green. We have experience in the construction of energy efficient, super insulated homes, including both passive and active solar homes.
Equally important focus for the homes we build, is the attention to good indoor air quality. We are very careful about air sealing the homes we build and that necessitates that we provide fresh air to the house. Each one of our homes has mechanical ventilation, with most homes having an air-to-air heat exchanger, which captures a percentage of the heat in the exhaust flow.
In addition to providing fresh air we recommend building products that do not contribute to poor indoor air quality to begin with. We are concerned about building products that out-gas and products that may prove to be harmful to the occupants. As we build we clearly see our role as one of an educator in addition to the group of people who physically put a house together. Understanding what sustainable construction involves and communicating that to our customers is an important part of our work.
We enjoy opportunities to be creative in an aesthetic sense and in ways that can also be cost effective. Our subs have been working for us for many years and share our appreciation for green building and quality work. Our company has built homes as small as 512 sq. ft. Our homes have been featured in Vermont Builder/Architect magazine and in Custom Home magazine. We have won awards from the Northern Vermont Homebuilders Association, the Burlington Preservation Society, the Vermont Energy Star Program for energy efficiency and the Governor's Environmental Excellence Award. Two of our homes have won the Best of the Best Award at the annual Better Buildings by Design conference in Burlington, Vermont. Our careful attention to detail is evident in how our homes perform and in the quality of our work.
Thank you for your interest in our company. We enjoy what we do and feel that building can be one of the most rewarding endeavors a person can under take. Building a healthier home for you and the planet is what our company is all about. If you have any questions or would like more information about our company please feel free to contact us
