When Paul Lazowski of P & P Construction located in Camano Island, Washington, visited with a couple wanting to build a new home, he found they had done their research. They wanted their home built with manmade materials that save trees, and they wanted it to provide comfortable even temperatures throughout the year. Their research had led them to Reward Wall Systems ICFs.

Lazowski called the couple after receiving a lead from Reward, and invited them to meet him at his home. After experiencing what a Reward home is all about, that’s all it took. They liked what they saw, and the project was a go.

The couple’s house is built on two levels in a beautiful setting overlooking Fidalgo Bay on Puget Sound. They said it is everything they were looking for and that when they moved in during January, the outside temperatures were still quite cold in their area, but the inside temperature was “grand.” They went on to say that in the summer, by opening the windows to get the fresh breeze off the bay at night, they use no air conditioning at all because the house has captured and held the cool air. They did mention that they had to use “…just a couple of fans when it gets hot in July!”

After their home was completed, the homeowners watched a basement being constructed and poured across the street using wooden forms. They said, “The whole process took about three weeks, with several more days to remove the forms. It all looked very archaic to us!”
