Building Green

David Brooke Rush Builders has been a leader in building energy efficient projects for the last 30 years. By using a core team of subcontractors and environmentally friendly materials, we have set the pace for others to follow. As the world awakens to the need to build smarter, we will continue to strive to find new and innovative materials to stay ahead of the curve.

Brooke currently serves on the Keystone Green Building Initiative ™ (KGBI) committee of the Home Builders Association of Bucks/Montgomery Counties. The KGBI is a program developed to promote and facilitate practical approaches to green construction. The goal is to help leverage this important trend and provide tools to implement green building strategies for builders and to help market green homes to the public. This program is based on the ANSI approved NAHB Nation Green Building Standard and is geared towards a market driven answer to conservation. We believe the educated homeowner should be empowered to make the choices, not some government agency.

Below is a link to a hands on, nuts & bolts presentation that Brooke produced for the committee to help explain some simple techniques for better building:
