The push for energy-efficient and high-performance buildings is stronger than ever, and at PACE, we believe in bringing the best renovation strategies to our community. The journey toward net-zero and high-performance housing isn’t without its challenges, but with the right approach, we can build better, smarter, and more efficiently.

The Power of Design & Planning

One of the most critical lessons in high-performance renovation is that great design starts long before the first nail is driven. Early-stage planning, including energy modeling, materials selection, and efficiency strategies, can make or break a project’s success. For PACE projects, this means working closely with architects and engineers from the outset to ensure that every component—from insulation levels to HVAC systems—is optimized for energy efficiency.

Smart Material Choices

High-performance homes require materials that balance durability, efficiency, and cost-effectiveness. At PACE, we prioritize sourcing materials that offer long-term performance while maintaining affordability, ensuring that sustainable remodeling is both practical and achievable.

Labor & Execution Matter

Even the best materials won’t perform if installation isn’t up to par. High-performance homes demand precision, from air-sealing details to proper window and door installation. At PACE, we focus on ensuring our workforce is trained in best practices, leveraging technology and training to improve efficiency and avoid costly mistakes.

Cost vs. Value

The upfront costs of high-performance construction can sometimes be higher, but the long-term savings on energy bills and maintenance make it worthwhile. More importantly, the value of a well-built home extends beyond dollars—it provides healthier indoor air quality, increased comfort, and resilience against extreme weather.

Bringing High-Performance Homes to the Mainstream

One of our biggest goals at PACE is to make high-performance renovations more accessible. Whether through innovative financing, cost-effective methods, or streamlined project management, we’re committed to pushing the industry forward.

By integrating the best lessons from builders and experts in the field, PACE continues to refine its approach to high-efficiency remodeling—ensuring that our projects aren’t just sustainable but also practical and scalable. With smart planning, the right materials, and skilled execution, we can make energy-efficient homes the standard rather than the exception.
