New Home Construction
It starts with a relationship.
At Mark Galezo and Associates, our #1 goal is for you to love where you live.
To achieve this, my clients and I form a close working relationship so that I can understand exactly what they want and how I can best deliver it. I always say that when you meet me, it either clicks or it doesn’t. That’s because I truly want to design and build the home that you envision. I’m not just a home builder, I’m your partner throughout the entire process from beginning to end, and even beyond. My exceptional team of detail-driven professionals and skilled artisans will co-create with you a smart, functional, comfortable, energy-efficient home that you will love living in.
My passion is solving problems.
Despite the best-laid plans, challenges seem to present themselves. When this happens, I love coming up with creative solutions. Whether it’s an unforeseen issue with the building site to a small detail like a doorknob, I’ll find the best answer and work it out to your satisfaction.
Applying building science to every project.
I design and build smart “green” homes that are healthy, comfortable, durable and energy-efficient.
Continuing education is an essential part of being a great builder. BPI (Building Performance Institute), PHIUS (Passive House USA), BSC (Building Science Corp) are just a few of the training resources through which I have gained knowledge. Over the years I have received certification as a Passive House Builder from PHIUS, a Building Analyst and Envelope Professional from BPI, and have taken various courses offered by BSC. Using principles learned from these various resources I build homes that are healthy, comfortable, durable, and energy-efficient. I strive to build my projects using ecologically responsible materials, advanced heating, cooling, and lighting to conserve energy and reduce carbon footprint, and not only meet today’s building codes but tomorrow’s.
Mark is like an architect, contractor, engineer, and design consultant rolled up into one.
We completely demolished our outdated kitchen, knocking down walls to the existing formal dining room, and started from scratch.
Prior to starting the project, he presented us with multiple options all having implications in terms of scope. He then began his archeological explorations! His communication was excellent every step of the way, even when we weren’t living in the home to monitor the progress. Never did he encounter a new curveball for which he was unable to come up with multiple solutions.
His intelligence and passion for creating beautiful spaces show through in the finished product, which was of impeccable quality and is by far our favorite space in our new home. We can’t wait to do our next project together!”
