GREEN CONSTRUCTION

Quinn's Construction is focused on environmentally sensitive building practices and on using eco-friendly building materials wherever practical - both in remodeling and in new building construction. Building “green” with an awareness of the environmental impact is a philosophy that makes sense for our customers and for our world. Quinn's Construction views every project as an opportunity to evaluate and potentially reduce environmental impact.

Quinn's Construction is concerned about the environment.  We offer products with the ENERGY STAR label. ENERGY STAR was created to help consumers easily identify products, homes, and buildings that save energy, money, and help protect the environment. As the government-backed, trusted symbol for energy efficiency, the ENERGY STAR label identifies highly efficient products and designates superior energy performance in homes and buildings. With ENERGY STAR, money isn't all you're saving - you are also making a difference in protecting the environment. And, that's important to all of us.

Timberline CoolSeries Energy Saving Shingles

A cool roof minimizes the solar heat gain of a building by first reflecting incoming sun rays and then by quickly re-emitting the remaining absorbed portion. As a result, the cool roof stays cooler than a traditional roof of similar construction. Read about the GAF's Timberline CoolSeries energy-saving shingles by clicking on the logo above.
