“Building with timber frame or traditional blocks and mortar used to cost less upfront, but now they are all on par with ICF,” says John Boyd, commercial director with Ballantine.
Building with ICF means using just five components, and up to 50 per cent less skilled labour as a percentage of your workforce on site. These efficiencies translate into a more streamlined construction process, fewer conflicts, and less potential for scheduling delays.
“Building with IntegraSpec also leads to at least 70 per cent saving in energy bills,” adds John. “We have a client who built an IntegraSpec five bedroomed house and his heating cost is £1 per day.”
