Residential Energy Rater

Echo Atlantic Construction is now one of Florida's newest class 3 residential energy raters. What is the Building Energy Rating System you ask? If you've purchased a new or existing home in the state of Florida since 1994 then you were given a brochure on the benefits of having a home energy rating done. The rating system is a relative rating that allows you to compare the energy-efficiency of one house to another of the same size, occupancy and climate location. It is a "miles per gallon" MPG estimate of the home's energy consumption and energy costs. It gives detailed estimates of how much energy the home will consume in a year and how much it will cost to purchase that energy. Contact us for more details.

Addition or Renovation?







How about both. Area family's newest addition prompted the renovation.
"Can you start and finish the job before our baby is born?" queried the expectant couple. Echo Atlantic Construction happily accepted the challenge, and with careful planning, and coordination was able to complete the job by the baby's due date. The new baby, however, was uninterested in our artificial timetables, and completely disregarding the experts futile prognostications, arrived 2 weeks early.
Nonetheless, the proud parents are now enjoying their new space.
