Participant Testimonial
This interactive webinar is truly fantastic for anyone planning to build sustainably in the many senses of the term “sustainable” from healthy materials, availability, environmental impact, strategic use, and more.
Rather than pouring through a plethora of information and misinformation, EkoBuilt have curated a selection of key considerations and relevant topics to discuss in a well-rounded agenda centered around the design and building principles of passive houses. Jaison and Paul also take the time to address any and all questions, even if a topic needs to be revisited.
It is well worth the time to bring any questions and concerns in building to the EkoBuilt team.

Participant Testimonial
We have been in the process of purchasing land and recently participated in a webinar with EkoBuilt — it was absolutely fascinating.
Just got us even more excited about the kits your company offers.
LINDSEY & SAM
By this point, I suppose we have all have watched many webinars. I feel the EkoBuilt session was a cut above the rest. It was briskly paced, factually detailed and exactly the correct length. I was impressed by the questions asked by the audience — and the answers from the company. All in all, very helpful.
MARK
I had a dream to build a unique and wonderful home. I wasn’t sure how to go about this until I approached Paul Kealey. I drew a plan that included everything I envisioned and Paul helped me transform the idea into a realizable project.
EkoBuilt were super awesome to work with and welcomed my help where I could offer it. I’ve learned a lot and had a great experience. If anyone would like to see the results of the project and speak to me in person they are welcome to my residence.
ANDRE & SOARI
EkoBuilt built the house of our dreams, on time and on budget. Their quality craftsmanship and superb attention to detail is impressive to say the least.
But, it is their willingness to go the extra mile, and the genuine joy that they derive when seeing a family first enter their beautiful new EkoBuilt home, that are this company’s greatest assets.
