Green Building

Thomas Jacobson Construction, Inc. is dedicated in philosophy and in daily practice to building superior homes while maintaining an active focus on our impact on the environment. We are proud to be one of the first green construction firms in Seattle and are current members of the Master Builders Association's Built Green program, the Northwest Ecobuilding Guild, and the U.S. Green Building Council. We utilize our knowledge and combined skill base to make your new or remodeled home as healthful and efficient as possible for your family and for the earth.

Even if you haven’t approached your project with “green” building in mind, we can help you incorporate materials and methods that will create less of an impact on our world and make your home a better place in which to live. Green consturction uses less natural resources, minimizes waste, improves indoor air quality and can lower your electric and heating bills. Visit the links below for more detailed information, including the incentives and advantages of implementing new eco-friendly technology into the contruction of your home.

For our customers, we are pleased to offer a free “green review” of each project to present sustainable building options.
