Catch us on HGTV and the Discovery Channel!

 

YES! You can build a beautiful, nearly disaster proof home that is so environmentally friendly and energy efficient that the Environmental Protection Agency doesn't have a rating for it. These amazing, affordable homes are not only nearly maintenance free, they will be a long-term investment that you could pass down to your children and grandchildren! Costs to build are comparable to a standard wood-frame home, and they don't require any specialized skills or quirky techniques to construct. What's the secret? These earth sheltered homes use the good earth itself to produce all the benefits you will read about here. How very natural!

Do not be misled by our competition. There are certainly many differences that make Formworks Building Inc. the leader in this form of building technology.  Some of our competitors have actually gone to the extent of taking our designs and projects, and passing them off as their own.  Our innovation and experience confirms that our homes are easier and less expensive to build than what the competition is able to offer. The support Formworks gives goes well beyond the structural system.  When others in the industry provide only a shell, we work with you to ensure that proper selection and use of all sub-systems provides the best living environment available.  Formworks Building Inc. has designed/built more earth-sheltered homes than any other.  No other home offers the safety, security and superiority that a Formworks home provides.

A Formworks home consists of two major building components which make it a unique and superior system.  The Formfast2 structural forming system and the Polysecure4 waterproofing system are exclusively unique to a Formworks home.
