Why NWFPW?
Strength and Durability:
Unlike hollow concrete block homes, Northwest Florida Poured Walls are extremely solid. The heavy-duty 8-inch walls are loaded and fortified with steel. Homeowners can be assured that concrete homes are sturdy and resilient. They have a compressive and flexural strength several times that of block and far exceed required safety regulations. Poured walls give twice as much protection against severe weather conditions and have been independently tested simulating 250 mile-per-hour ground level wind speeds equal to the strongest hurricanes and tornadoes. Steel-reinforced concrete poured walls substantially outperformed typical wood- and steel-framed walls for: (1) Reducing flying debris, the greatest hazard to homeowners during this life-threatening weather; and (2) Withstanding collapsing and structure damage.
Fire Resistance:
Homeowners can rest easier knowing that their new Northwest Florida Poured Walls home is built with the most incombustible material available. Concrete walls are very heat resistant and cannot burn.
Mold & Mildew Resistant:
A Northwest Florida Poured Walls solid concrete wall is practically water resistant. Solid concrete weighs approximately 50lbs more per cubic foot than a hollow block wall due to the tightly packed structure of the solid concrete. This structure gives solid concrete walls less empty spaces than hollow block walls which creates a drier environment in solid concrete basements - giving owners less risk for mold infestation.
Flexibility:
Northwest Florida Poured Walls concrete homes are adaptable to the clients’ existing floor plans and allow for flexibility in the placement, style, size and shape of windows and openings in these homes. Concrete home exteriors can be finished with a variety of materials such as siding, stucco, or brick.
Energy Efficient:
A Northwest Florida Poured Walls home built with solid concrete walls benefit the home owner by being more energy efficient. Concrete acts as a thermal insulator to the changing temperatures, thus heating and air conditioning costs are much lower.
Cost Efficient:
Northwest Florida Poured Walls offers competitive rates, and the durability and safety factors are conducive with reduced maintenance, warranty and insurance costs. Call for a list of references or to setup your free estimate.
