Company Profile

Building Performance Construction was established in 1998, building the first house to meet the stringent standards of the American Lung Association’s Health House designation in the state of Connecticut. Since then, BPC has managed the construction of eight new homes and the complete reconstruction of four existing homes, all of which exceed ENERGY STAR® criteria and scored above 90 on the Home Energy Rating System scale. We have supervised the installation of performance-related improvements to many more. In addition, we have provided consultation and rating services to hundreds of homeowners, builders, and architects throughout the region.

We are a leading authority in Connecticut on high performance residential construction. A home we built in Redding was awarded the 2004 HOBI award for Best Energy Efficient and Healthy Home (sponsored by the HBA of Connecticut, Inc.). Articles on our work have appeared in the New York Times and Connecticut Magazine, as well as in numerous area newspapers. We were featured on a recent CPTV series entitled “Connecticut’s Energy Future,” and we have spoken about residential building science to a wide variety of groups, including consumers, architects, builders, and building inspectors.

BPC holds licenses in Connecticut as a New Home Contractor (#2277), Home Improvement Contractor (#572283), Real Estate Broker (#REB750723), and Professional Engineer CT(#19135) and has additional certifications in building science, energy efficient construction, performance rating, healthy home construction, and indoor air quality assessment.
