A REMODEL IN STAGES
A phased remodel over time is a technique that is growing in popularity. The basic concept revolves around identifying long-term goals and designing around strategies to perform the work over a few years. With a good design concept, the later phases can be done without having to compromise previously-finished work. This home features the first few projects of a staged remodel with plans for the future.

*The HERS Index is a scoring system for a home’s energy efficiency, like an MPG sticker for a motor vehicle. HERS starts with an average home for a point of reference called the “HERS Reference Home” which is valued at a HERS Index of 100. On the other side of the spectrum, the most energy efficient, net zero energy home scores a HERS Index of 0. Each point below the benchmark of 100 represents 1% of gain in energy efficiency.
**An EUI is the energy consumed (Btu) within a building divided by its total square feet. An EUI is a relative measure of how efficient a home is, with a lower number being better.
