Heathwood Homes on Country Lane

Q & A WITH THE BUILDER:

Q. What were the major benefits of using Amvic over other sheathing and rigid board materials?

A. The major benefit of using SilveRboard® Graphite Rigid Board Insulation is that it is lightweight and durable on the job site reducing breakage. We find it extremely easy to tape joints and edges. It also provides a superior weather-tight envelope.

Q. Why did you choose Amvic?

A. We chose Amvic because the SilveRboard® Graphite gives us a competitive advantage over builders that want to construct their homes better than the 2017 OBC standard for energy savings. With SilveRboard® Graphite and good building techniques, we are able to exceed those requirements by 15% or more! We are also pleased with the relationship we have with Amvic
