BPC builds new custom green homes on property you own or plan to buy. If you can, contact us before buying the property. We can then assess its suitability for building a green home that can make good use of solar panels. Some existing homes are excellent candidates to be retrofitted and renovated to become a green home.
BPC can help you determine if your home or the one you plan to buy is suitable for a green renovation. BPC homes are truly green homes. Every BPC home built today meets or exceeds two or more established green building industry standards. And BPC's green homes built today often achieve Net Zero Energy Home status and some attain Positive Energy Home status.
The objectives of sustainable building include building using as few non-renewable building materials as possible and to build homes that us clean fuel that does not create net greenhouse gases. Sustainable building aims to use no building materials that, if used, reduce biodiversity, and aims to use local building materials to reduce the carbon footprint generated by shipping materials long distances.

It was a pleasure to work with Mike Trolle-from the time we met him at his award-winning energy efficient home for a first look at what is possible, until the time our super-energy efficient home was completed. His mastery of building science, along with unlimited patience in conveying the details, was extraordinary. Just as important were the superb subcontractors working for him. Their attention to the details and willingness to modify standard building practices to achieve high performance homes made them invaluable. If you are thinking of building a state-of-the- art home, BPC Green Builders

Mike Trolle and the BPC team were wonderful to work with and daringly worked with us through the entire demolition and remodeling of our dream house. It has now been almost nine years since our new house was completed and we are stilled delighted with the house and are enjoying the energy savings throughout the seasons.”

My wife and I lost our home to hurricane Sandy one week after we got married. We decided to rebuild on the same spot only higher. We felt that building an energy efficient home was consistent with our values and a smart decision.
Mike took some very basic plans we got from the internet and gave us the direction and expertise to build a beautiful home that is incredibly comfortable. When our friends visit in the winter they are always jealous about how comfortable our home is.
These guys guys did a great job managing the job. Because we live by the coast they had to build our home on top of 12

Mike built us a custom high end modern house in Ridgefield CT, and we would recommend him without reservations. We did not know Mike prior to building our house and have no reason to recommend him other than for the great job he did on our project. If you are considering going on the same journey, we are happy to discuss and answer questions. The process was so much fun that we would almost be tempted to build another house now.
We have been living in the house for almost six years, and the house feels as comfortable as when we moved in, has had only fairly minor issues, and looks new. The house
