Clarum: Specialists in LEED-certified
new custom homes and green renovations

Clarum Homes specializes in high performance LEED-certified custom homes. Our professionals can help you design, and build or remodel, your own energy-efficient custom dream home.

LEED – an acronym for Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design – is an internationally recognized green building certification system. Developed by the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC), LEED provides building owners and operators a concise framework for identifying and implementing practical and measurable green building design, construction, operations, and maintenance solutions.

LEED certification provides third-party assurance to home buyers that their home complies with rigorous technical requirements for energy and water efficiency, indoor air quality, water efficiency, CO2 emissions reduction, non-toxic materials, and environmental performance.

Homes that are certified through LEED complete a technically rigorous verification process that includes a home energy (HERS) rating and onsite inspections. Lower insurance rates, advantageous financing, and government incentives may be available for LEED-certified homes.
