Beautiful, Natural, Durable Benches, Ovens, Sheds, Greenhouses, Cabins,
as well as the Home of your Dreams...

We can build whatever you need, at half the cost of conventional building.  Not only will it look and feel beautiful (after all, it is hand sculpted exactly the way you want it), it will last as long as you keep a functioning roof over it, at least 300 years and likely many, many more.

For some, the best part is the lack of maintenance.  For others, it's the purity of material...this is the true non-toxic home.

You can rest assured knowing your future generations will have a lovely home and that you had the foresight to provide it for them!

Cob has so many advantages, we'll list just a few:

• its huge thermal mass keeps the inside of your building cool when it's hot outside and, with a passive solar design and a wood stove, warm inside when it's cold outside;
• it is insect-, rodent-, fire-, and earthquake proof;
• It is much faster to finish than any other construction method: at most two layers of plaster and an optional coat of paint...no mouldings, no sheet rock, no plastic;
• it breathes naturally so you can, too.  There are no worries about sick building syndrome;
• it will last hundreds of years;
• and it is much cheaper to build per square foot than any other construction technique available today.

Our Technique is the Key to Our Speed
We use Production Cob to build your structures, which is another step up in speed from Fast Cob! which already is 10x faster than "traditional west coast" cob.

We can build and finish a 400 sq.ft. cottage from scratch in a month.  A 1000 sq.ft. split level house can be built to lock-up in 4 months.  A bench and oven can be built and finished in a weekend.  It's that fast.

Other benefits of having us build your dream include:

• integrated design to ensure long life of the structure and complete enjoyment by the owner;
  
• virtually silent construction that is safe for the whole family to be around;
• no dumpsters are needed for construction garbage...because we don't create any!

Although the chances of ever needing to demolish your new structure are slim to nil, you can also enjoy knowing that none of your descendents will ever need a cavalcade of dump trucks to remove it if they want something different.  Cob simply melts into the earth when the roof is removed.

Gorgeous.  Sustainable.  Functional.  Easy.  Healthy.  Built to Last.  That's our style of Cob...Fast Cob!
