Change the Way You Live

Today’s well informed homeowners are looking for newer, more efficient and responsible ways to build and maintain their homes.  A place that’s safe for families, comfortable, quiet, energy efficient and environmentally friendly.

A home like this can change the way you live.  Many homeowner’s are considering the benefits of living in a home built with Quad-Lock insulated concrete forms.  More and more homeowners and builders are discovering the advantages and comforts of concrete homes.

ICF homes have reduced air filtration due to the continuous air barriers provided by the foam insulation and the concrete.  The result is significantly less dust, pollen, and other air pollutants.    This means more living comfort for you and your family.

Learn more about living in a better built home.  Higher comfort, monthly energy savings, and low home maintenance may be more of a reality than you once thought.  Quad-Lock icf construction is simply the best choice to make when it comes to building your dream home.

Delivery of Quad-Deck ready to go!

Another delivery of Quad-Deck is on it’s way! This time we are heading up to North Vancouver, Squamish and our final destination of Whistler.

Quad-Lock is manufactured in Surrey, British Columbia. This local supplier was established in 1994 and at that time was one of the first flat-wall insulated concrete forms systems. Quad-Lock continues to be a leader when it comes to creating versatile, high quality construction products, like Quad-Deck.

Quad-Deck and Anchor Tunnels

Caught a few minutes of video at this recent concrete pour in the Fraser Valley.

The exterior walls of this home are all Quad-Lock insulated concrete forms from the foundation to the roof. Quad-Deck is used for the floor and will make this future home truly comfortable and bunker strong!

Quad-Deck and Anchor Tunnels

This video features both Quad-Deck and anchor tunnels which are used to hold the bolts in place. The concrete can still flow through, creating a solid attachment point.
