Holliston LEED House

This is the story of a family who built the first LEED "green" house in Holliston, Massachusetts. We were trying to spend no more than it would take to build an ordinary house,and maybe even succeeded. The dust is still settling.

And this doesn't show them all.


This is what happens when you have three carpenters, two duct men, a well guy, a plumber, and two site workers (not to mention yours truly) on location. Trucks, trucks, everywhere. What's happening today:
Tying the well head to the house with an in and out line. Digging the trench for electric power up the driveway and to the house. Starting the septic field. Finishing the ductwork (thanks Dave and Ken). Shingling the house. Insulating around windows and doors with foam (done, thanks Chris). Extension jambs on windows and doors. Hot water lines and propane gas lines. Stripping or encapsulating lead paint on doors.
