Greg Long Master Carpenter
Greg started his career as a carpenter in Chicago working on such projects as the Wrigley mansion historic renovation, restaurant interiors, and an art gallery. He also designed and renovated an old warehouse into a performance theatre still active today. He was heavily involved in salvage and restoration work in the Gold Coast and lakefront area. After moving to Michigan, Greg continued his carpentry business with many local retailers including Selo/Shevel, Sixteen Hands, Middle Earth, and Red Hot Lovers. His first green building project in the early 80's involved timber framing and structural insulated panels (SIPs). After completing several houses and additions employing SIPS and insulated concrete forms, Greg is well seasoned in the application of these green technologies.

Using Structural Insulated Panels for walls and roofing and Insulated Concrete Forms for foundations, these site adaptable products reduce setup and labor costs as well as wood and concrete consumption. This in turn provides greater insulative effect that reduces greenhouse gas emissions and energy consumption. Check out what we use for more details on these alternative products.
