Project Spotlight: Building an ICF Home in Abbotsford, BC

We are excited to be supplying Quad-Lock ICFs to Citadel Developments for a stunning custom home in the beautiful city of Abbotsford, British Columbia. Nestled in the heart of the Fraser Valley, Abbotsford is a city that seamlessly blends modern innovation with natural beauty, and we’re proud to be part of its transformation toward sustainable living.

Why Choose Quad-Lock ICF?

There is so much potential with Quad-Lock insulated concrete forms.   This is a building system that uses interlocking foam panels, which are filled with reinforced concrete.  The possibilities for design are virtually endless and result in a home that is incredibly strong, energy-efficient, and sound-insulated.

Building a Better Home

The Citadel team is well experienced in building with Quad-Lock.  The excellent thermal insulation provided by ICF’s minimizes thermal bridging, ensuring that indoor temperatures remain consistent year-round. This not only results in lower utility bills but also contributes to a smaller carbon footprint—something we all care about deeply.

Unmatched Durability and Safety

An ICF home is incredibly durable. The combination of concrete and foam creates a structure that can withstand Abbotsford’s diverse weather conditions, from heavy rain to strong winds and even seismic activity. The fire resistance of this ICF home provides an added layer of safety. Concrete doesn’t burn, and the foam insulation is treated with flame retardants. This home is not only durable but also safe, giving the homeowners peace of mind.

Looking Ahead

We are confident this sustainable building method will become a standard in residential construction. Thank you to Citadel Developments for allowing us to be a part of this home building journey.
