Connecticut Green Building Companies
BPC Green Builders, LLC
At BPC, we believe that changes to the way homes are built can play a big part in reducing our use of energy and the resulting impact on the environment. Green homes should be aesthetically pleasing, comfortable, healthy - and energy efficient. Whether big or small, elegant or plain, compromise on these fundamentals is neither necessary nor desirable. We combine cutting-edge residential building science with expert craftsmanship to build beautiful homes that will excite your senses but require so little energy and maintenance that you will enjoy the savings for many years to come. We believe that superior design, engineering, and outstanding performance should not cost more, and at BPC it doesn’t.

Weston Solutions, Inc.
WESTON offers a broad range of sustainable design and construction services as well as innovative technologies, which are collectively referred to as "Green Solutions." WESTON can assist property owners, architects, and design professionals with planning, engineering, and construction of high-performance facilities.
Sustainability has moved to the forefront of societal debate and is widely viewed as critical to the well-being of future generations. The depletion of natural resources, increased demand and cost of energy, and the impact of greenhouse gases on climate are real threats that have garnered serious global attention. Sustainable or "green" building design is one part of the solution that is becoming mainstream. Successful projects must now achieve superior environmental performance as well as economic results. Although not always easily quantified, environmental benefits can contribute significantly to enhanced workplace productivity and life-cycle performance. Incentives to promote and facilitate green building technologies are being introduced at all levels of government and industry.
The sustainable design and construction process integrates the use of products and techniques in a systems approach. The project outcome is typically less disruptive to the environment because it employs energy efficiency, adaptive reuse or renovation, and automation. WESTON can assist facility owners and service professionals by bundling green products and technologies into comprehensive sustainable solutions.
