Commitment to Green Remodeling:

Green remodeling is automatically incorporated into our projects every chance we get. The four green guiding principles (listed below) enhance the well-being of our clients and support a healthy community and natural environment. Not all green building ideas are practical, affordable, or sensible. However, we want to make you aware of the opportunities, technologies, and materials available to you. Ultimately, these are personal and emotional decisions.

Levco’s Green Guiding Principles are:

  • Energy efficiency
  • Indoor air quality
  • Resource conservation
  • Water conservation

When implemented successfully, these serve to preserve our environment for future generations by conserving natural resources and protecting air and water quality. They provide benefits for us today by increasing comfort and well-being and helping to maintain healthy air quality.

Commitment to Sustainable Deconstruction

We have committed ourselves to deconstructing houses in a sustainable way. Through our affiliation with The Reuse People of America, and our sustainability model, we have begun to emerge as the deconstruction specialists in the area. We are sharing our passion for what we do with our community as well. Giving back turns out to be a very sustainable and rewarding practice.

Green remodeling strategies as well as sustainable deconstruction are good for the community and the pocketbook. They reduce maintenance and replacement requirements, reduce utility bills and lower the cost of home ownership, which ultimately increases property and resale values. Read More

Levco’s Creativity Philosophy

“We create what you imagine”

Levco’s Work Philosophies

“If you’re not having fun, you’re not doing it right”

This is in reference to enjoying what we do for a living. Having fun is a choice and a reflection of our joy for remodeling. It is easy to ensure enjoyment by hiring folks that are motivated by how much they can accomplish in a day.

“I’m helping to build a cathedral”

A poem that speaks to my work ethic which I share with my team can be read here.

A story that speaks to what the hell we are all doing here can be read here

Great results are a prize for having fun. Our contagious style of fun and work gets us through all sorts of situations. We are all “people pleasers” and are results driven. Cut us loose on your remodeling project and see what I mean.

“Commitment to repeatable excellence”
