Join us as we venture into the rugged beauty of Grand Junction, Colorado, where The Build Show goes on the road to uncover cutting-edge building practices.

First, we tour a local construction site with Josie from Maves Construction. Josie walks us through their insulation strategy, combining closed-cell spray foam and fiberglass for maximum R-value and airtightness. We also explore their use of LSL lumber for perfectly flat walls—a game-changer for cabinetry and tile installation.

Next, we meet Darren from Synergy Builders, who showcases his approach to Advanced Framing, optimizing material use and improving energy efficiency. Darren also explains how double-wall systems eliminate freeze risk for plumbing on exterior walls while maximizing insulation.

Finally, we visit Matt from TreyTyn Homes, who shares their innovative attic insulation method using open-cell spray foam. We also cover the importance of air sealing, efficient duct placement, and the use of wafer-style LED lighting to simplify ceiling layouts.

This episode is a must-watch for anyone looking to improve building techniques with smart, energy-efficient details that stay within budget. Don’t forget to subscribe for more expert insights every Tuesday and Friday!
