Rebuild­ing after a wild­fire with Fox Blocks insu­lat­ed con­crete form (ICF) con­struc­tion can pro­tect a new struc­ture and its occu­pants from future wild­fires.

When it comes to build­ing a stur­dy, ener­gy-effi­cient foun­da­tion for your home, insu­lat­ed con­crete form (ICF) tech­nol­o­gy is rapid­ly grow­ing in pop­u­lar­i­ty. By pro­vid­ing supe­ri­or insu­la­tion, an ICF foun­da­tion can sig­nif­i­cant­ly reduce heat­ing and cool­ing costs. Build­ing an ICF foun­da­tion can also be eas­i­er and less labor-inten­sive than tra­di­tion­al con­struc­tion due to the light­weight mate­ri­als involved. How­ev­er, the ini­tial cost can some­times be high­er than tra­di­tion­al con­struc­tion meth­ods, so how much does an ICF foun­da­tion cost?

The own­ers want­ed an ener­gy-effi­cient facil­i­ty where they could pro­vide inde­pen­dent liv­ing, pal­lia­tive, and end-of-life care in Ontario, Cana­da.

This arti­cle will out­line the impor­tance of con­struc­tion work­flow in com­mer­cial projects, the process­es that often take the most time dur­ing con­struc­tion, the ben­e­fits of using ICF and how specif­i­cal­ly Fox Blocks’ ICF can help save time and costs on your next project.
