Green Home
Building
For Your Family, For Our Environment. Green Building is the standard of Bost Construction.
At Bost Construction, we build homes that support better everyday living. Each layout is intentionally designed so every square foot works for the homeowner. Our team looks at the full picture—air quality, water quality, energy use, and the materials that go into the home—to make sure the spaces we build are comfortable, efficient, and long-lasting.
We also partner with recognized third-party organizations to verify the quality and performance of our homes. These certifications give homeowners peace of mind, showing that their home is built to meet strong industry standards for energy efficiency, water conservation, and overall sustainability.
The residential sector uses a significant portion of the nation's total energy, which is why our team focuses on building homes that are designed to use less power, last longer, and create a healthier living environment. Every home we build is planned with efficiency in mind so families can enjoy lower energy costs and a more sustainable lifestyle.
Our commitment to responsible building includes:
​
Implementing organized job-site recycling and cleanup
Choosing building materials that are durable andenvironmentally conscious.
Installing high-efficiency HVAC and water systems to reduce long- term usage.
Following detailed pre-construction planning to prevent unnecessary changes, delays, or waste.

"Our goal is to lower the environmental impact of every home we build by using long-lasting materials, incorporating energy- and water-savings systems, and improving indoor air quality through smarter construction practices."- Coty Bost, Founder & President
​
Homes built by Bost Construction that follow verified green standards consistently deliver strong resale value. Buyers recognize the long-term benefits—from energy savings and durable construction to healthier indoor environments and reduced environmental impact. The combination of efficient systems, quality materials, and thoughtful engineering makes our homes more desirable on the market. It’s value that holds up year after year.
Smart Home Design & Resource-Conscious Building
​
Our approach starts with designing floor plans that use space wisely. By maximizing how each area functions, a home can live larger than its actual square footage—delivering the comfort and practicality of a bigger home without unnecessary expansion.
We also rely on advanced construction methods to boost performance and reduce waste, including:
​
Engineered wood products and I-joist systems for strong, efficient framing
Heat-reflective roof sheathing to help maintain indoor comfort
High-performance house wrapping that improves insulation and air sealing
Exterior features such as shaded porches, extended rooflines, and proper drainage to protect the home’s foundation and structure
Efficient design naturally minimizes material use. When it suits the style of the project, we also integrate reclaimed or repurposed materials—old beams, brick, flooring, lighting, or architectural details—to add character while keeping waste to a minimum.
