Performance
ICF Construction for Hurricane Resistance
An integrated structural system built around engineered resilient construction for extreme coastal conditions. ICF exterior walls, reinforced-concrete floor and roof systems such as InsulDeck where appropriate, structural steel, engineered framing, and impact-rated openings work together as one complete structural envelope.
Proven Performance in Real Storms
Our homes are designed to perform when it matters most, in real coastal conditions. Net Zero Construction has completed homes that have been tested by actual Florida hurricane conditions.
Energy Smart & Net Zero-Ready
A high-performance building envelope can significantly reduce heating and cooling demand while improving comfort. Energy efficiency comes from the entire building, including continuous insulation, air sealing, high-performance windows and doors, and efficient HVAC.
Hands-On, Family-Run Builder
Led by John Wolterman with 25+ years of experience and direct involvement in every project.
Transparency
