Value

We guarantee your satisfaction. I have a large variety of skills, and building knowledge and so can give sound advice concerning upgrades and related issues.

Qualifications

I have worked for over thirty years in electronics as a hardware design engineer. During that time I also designed, and built my own energy efficient home, and did all the building trades myself. I have done heat loss calculations and heating duct design for my own home. I have studied solar and other energy conservation technologies, and incorporated some passive solar design techniques into my home design. I have subsequently done renovation projects and assisted friends with home construction and renovation.

I am qualified to do ecoENERGY audits by NRCan. This program is over, but my many 100s of home visits provided valuable experience in locating building energy loss problems.

My previous background with practical housing design and construction enables me to understand issues that you may have with your home. My science and engineering background provide good problem solving skills. My practical experience with renovations can provide some insights into the issues that you may encounter while making changes to your home.

Please call (613) 256-8846 for courteous, timely service.
