The philosophy of R & S Tavares Associates, Inc. is one that I can get behind. Shown on their website is a statement written with conviction and foresight into how the building industry of the United States can (and should) improve. I think it's stated so well that any paraphrasing would be a disservice. The company states:“We firmly believe that the construction industry in the USA has been stagnant, using the same construction techniques for the last 100 years, and that we as a Country can do much better by adopting the technology of Pre-engineered manufacturing construction and alternative, more sustainable construction systems - methods being utilized very efficiently within the United Kingdom, Scandinavia, Germany and Japan.”I agree. The building industry has been grappling with the developments in eco-friendly, energy efficient, and overall smarter building techniques and materials and with the onset of the green building trend environmentalism and construction have been at a crossroads in the last several years. This company has only been around since 2002 and was founded by Ralph Tavares and Silvana Tavares. I have to admit that I’m having a blast reviewing this company. The services offered cover the scope of the entire construction process, but what I particularly enjoy is the new-age approach this company undertakes. Projects like their “Relocatable Silo” or the RST expandaHOME–pictured at left- showcase the results of a new approach to construction these days. Functionality, pragmatism, and environmental concerns take precedence in this company’s vision of construction and that’s how they came up with the modular home that can easily “grow” to fit the needs of any family. Serving as Job Captain, Neil Looney is probably on the site for these type of eye-catching and creative projects R & S Tavares Associates is becoming known for. He doesn’t have any sort of green building certification, but I’m guessing Loone and his crew have an eco-friendly element during every job …and that’s something I think we all can appreciate.
