By now, you’ve probably heard about “green buildings” and “LEED® certified projects”. No mere fad, this shift in construction consciousness toward more environmentally sound methods is gaining momentum every month.
Reston Painting & Contracting is committed to best green practices. Clients will often ask us for our recommendations when painting or renovating their spaces. We will identify the most effective green materials for your building, from paint and carpeting to energy-saving lighting.
Reston Painting uses earth friendly low VOC (Volatile Organic Compounds) paint. These low-VOC paints don’t cost much more than “regular” paints. We recommend them for public spaces and commercial applications.
In addition, Reston Painting & Contracting follows a number of green practices in its daily operations:
- We turn down the heat in our offices down and shut our doors to keep out cold air in winter
- We drive our our fleet of trucks less
- We have implemented green practices when disposing of paint thinner
- We manage our waste water
We are a member of the Green Building Council, a non-profit organization dedicated to sustainable building design and construction.
Although April 22nd is Earth Day, we celebrate our planet and protecting our environment, all year long. Please ask us how we can help you “go green” on your next project.
