“Terra View Homes, as an industry leader and builder who recognizes the importance of constant improvement, has worked closely with Building Knowledge for over a decade and has found their expertise in the Building Science field invaluable. We recently increased our spec to nothing less than Net Zero Ready and could not have made this leap without the support of the staff at Building Knowledge. I am in communication with their staff on a weekly basis and have taken advantage of their on-site and off-site training sessions multiple times as we move towards increasing the knowledge of our staff and industry partners.”
