Kurk Homes is proud to be a part of the Guardian Certified Home Builder program. Our homes are built for maximum longevity, durability and efficiency, saving our clients time and money. Every Guardian Certified Home is required to meet rigorous engineering and energy standards and will receive multiple inspections throughout the home-building process. It is very important to Kurk Homes to not only build a beautiful home for your family but also to ensure that it’s structurally sound and efficient. Here are a few of the extra steps we take under the Guardian Certified Home Builder program to ensure our customers receive quality craftsmanship:
- Foundation engineered by a Certified Guardian Engineering Firm
- Foundation inspected before concrete pour by a licensed ICC Code Certified Inspector
- Engineering representative on site while concrete is being poured
- Engineering representative to verify cables are elongated to correct tensioning
- Structural frame designed by a Certified Guardian Engineering Firm
- Frame inspected by a licensed ICC Code Certified Inspector for structural, mechanical, electrical and plumbing integrity
- Insulation inspection performed by a Certified Energy Rating Inspector BEFORE sheetrock is installed
- Final code inspection performed by a licensed ICC Code Certified Inspector
- Final blower door and duct blaster testing performed by a Certified Energy Inspector to confirm HERS Index
Oftentimes the excitement of building a new home is centered around all the new finishes — flooring, faucets, countertops, exterior finishes, paint — but what we feel really sets us apart is the commitment we have to building a structure that maintains its integrity and efficiency while still looking beautiful for years to come.
