Recycle & Reuse Within Your New Eco Home
Excelsior Residential Builders are builders of Eco Homes and sustainable builds in Hamilton and the Waikato.
There is a growing awareness that the way we live has an impact on the planet, this is also true about how we build and live in our houses. There has been a growing trend to build in a more sustainable ways.
- It is not about being a 'tree hugger' it is about being socially responsible
- It is not about being 'hippies', it is about respecting the planet that gives us life
- It is not about being 'trendy', it is sensible and financially prudent
On some building sites you will see a full bin of potentially recyclable material taken away every week, only to end up in a land fill. Not on an Excelsior site…
It is estimated that up to half of the waste that goes into New Zealand landfills comes from construction and demolition. At Excelsior we are committed to continually educating ourselves of ways we can build your dream home, without having a negative impact on our environment.
Building a home can be a wasteful business...
At Excelsior we are committed to continually educating ourselves of ways we can build your dream home, without having a negative impact on our environment. At the start of a project we offer a waste management plan, which helps everyone involved in the building process reduce the waste going to New Zealand landfills.
We are constantly coming up with new ways we can recycle ‘waste’, produced by a new home or renovation, and have a team of sub-trades with the same philosophy
Building For The Future
This doesn’t mean that we compromise on what we believe to be the standard of housing we want, it is about ensuring we use sustainable practises to tread more lightly on the planet and create homes that last for generations whilst having minimal impact on the environment. At Excelsior we have embraced the desires of our clients to build in a more eco-friendly way and actively work with them, their architects and other material suppliers to ensure we help with the process.
We have built many types of ‘Eco Friendly’ homes including Straw Bale homes and other eco-friendly building techniques
