In This Episode: More than a construction project, Best Builders, working with a skilled team to rebuild Phoenix House from a devastating fire, strive to be a model of innovation incorporating cutting-edge materials following a meticulously crafted blueprint for what will be the first Zero Carbon home built in Canada.
āWhere can I find savings for my client? And when Elizabeth first came to me and said, you know, if we do a carbon neutral home, you donāt have to tear up the foundation. And Iām thinking, I just saved them $200,000.ā Todd Best, Best Builders
āāYou begin to realize you hire smart people so they can tell you what to do and not so you can tell them what to do. ⦠We didnāt want a fancier house. We wanted a better house. A higher quality home. I didnāt need a media room and I donāt need a swimming pool. I just want a house⦠thatās not going to blow down in 80 years. Weāre getting the best out of everybody because everyoneās invested in it, because weāre allowing them to do what they do best. The one thing I would leave everybody with is build a team before you build a house.ā Homeowner, Phoenix House
