Fresno CalGreen
We have been providing Fresno CalGreen services for over 10 years. We are specialists in the CalGreen code. As a result we and can help you avoid unnecessary permitting and construction costs.
CalGreen Residential Checklist
Specifically our services include authoring your CalGreen checklist, dealing with the city of Fresno Building Department and consulting during the construction process. In addition, our ICC certified CalGreen Special Inspectors can provide the final inspection required for occupancy.
The goal of CalGreen is to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, promote healthy environments and reduce wastage of energy and water resources. These lofty goals can come at a cost to the unwary new home builder or commercial developer.
We provide value to your project by ensuring you do not commit to any more CalGreen obligations than are necessary.
One of the very real problems with the CalGreen checklists is they include every single CalGreen requirement. Many of these may not be required for your project. It takes a CalGreen specialist to properly review your checklist and clearly identify only those items that you must comply with.
As a matter of fact, many home builders end up spending more money on their CalGreen compliance than is necessary. This is often because person they hired to author the checklist simply did not understand the details of the code.
The language in the checklist is a bullet-point list of code issues. It does not mean you have to comply with every issue on the list. In-depth knowledge of the code is required to determine if an item is applicable.
CalGreen Commissioning
CalGreen commissioning is required on all new commercial projects over 10,000 square feet. It is important to understand that this requirement does NOT mean you have to pay for a full-blown commissioning process. The California Green Building Standards Code defines what commissioning is required.
Here’s our challenge. Call any specialized commissioning company and get a quote from them. Then call us and get our fee. I can guarantee you will be shocked by the difference. The difference is only paying for what the CalGreen Code requires!
