Renewal Construction, Inc., has been named the Renovator of the Year by EarthCraft House. The award recognizes Renewal’s excellence in building and superior leadership in meeting EarthCraft environmental and energy efficiency standards.

A full-service residential general contractor based in Decatur, Georgia, Renewal serves clients in Decatur, Avondale, Druid Hills, and other intown Atlanta neighborhoods, providing turnkey solutions for small projects and repairs, major renovations, additions, and custom homes.

“It is our pleasure to be connected with the EarthCraft House program,” says Renewal CEO Peter Michelson. “We share fundamental values, which makes for a strong partnership. We are committed to offering our clients materials and applications that are consistent with the EarthCraft guidelines; however, the choice is ultimately up to the client. It usually costs more on the front end to implement EarthCraft products, but clients save money in the long run through lower utility bills and fewer replacement costs.”

EarthCraft House is a voluntary green building program for the construction of healthy, comfortable homes that reduce utility costs and protect the environment. Participants strive to be leaders in smart growth management and environmental stewardship. The program is a partnership of Southface Energy Institute and Greater Atlanta Homebuilders Association.
