Qualified Energy Smart Builder
Canvas Constructions Co is proud to be the first Gold Coast and Northern NSW Builder to become a Green Building Institute Qualified Builder through the Energy Smart Builder program.
With this new qualification, Canvas Constructions Co has also joined over 400+ signatories in the Sustainable Builders Alliance with a common goal to revolutionise the way homes are built and minimise our reliance on carbon-driven energy.
By engaging a builder with accredited knowledge in energy efficiency and healthy home principles such as: sealing the building envelope, improved air flow and quality, low VOC materials, utilising product with high thermal mass; you are future proofing your home and community, reducing your carbon footprint, and enjoying savings in energy use and costs. Furthermore, by correctly implementing these principles, you are also improving air quality and reducing volatile organic compounds (VOCs) to ensure a health space for your family.

Improving energy efficiency is not just for new builds - existing homes can be retrofit to maximise your homes energy efficency potential.
However, the learning doesn’t stop there. Michael (Builder & Director) is excited to continue his professional development and further his understanding of the building science principles of passive homes, as well as, techniques to improve wellbeing within the home.
