Residential Design
Building naturally assumes a home has integrity that goes beyond personal preference. Whether remodeling or building from the ground up, sustainable building and design modernizes, clarifies and upholds the vernacular of a house, implementing natural design principals & resource saving technologies to create a defined vision for the life of a building.

Green Building
As Green Builders we are responsible for maintaining integrity while creating healthful environments. In order to do this we tend building sites responsibly by deconstructing instead of demolishing, reusing whenever possible and by minimizing waste. We use nontoxic materials, reclaimed and certifiably harvested wood, recycled materials, products with low embodied energy and nontoxic composition. These practices cultivate healthful working environments for homeowners as well as employees.
New Construction
New Construction allows you to maximize the use of green building materials, principals and technologies throughout your project to create a comprehensive environment of interlocking systems that maximize comfort and minimize cost of living for you and the planet.
Additions
Long term economic performance of a building is defined by how the built environment functions, efficiently heating and cooling itself without complicated technologies, longevity of the active systems installed in the house and how a home can grow in time to incorporate the needs of families without expensive cosmetic remodels. Additions are a great opportunity to apply natural principals to your house.
Kitchen and Bath Remodels
Most homes are in need of, or can be improved by, the remodeling of kitchens, baths, laundry rooms and more open floor plans to create better use of space and more graceful living.
Decks and Trellises
We use nontoxic materials, reclaimed and certified sustainably harvested wood, recycled materials, products with low embodied energy and nontoxic composition.
We are available as Green building educators and demonstrators. We are guest lecturers at Cabrillo and DeAnza Community Colleges. One of our customers offers monthly tours to the public of their solar strawbale home. Please contact us to schedule a tour.
As experts in Strawbale building, we are available for “Bale Raisings” and preparation.

Boa Constructor Green Building & Design Reviews
What They Say

Boa handled a complete makeover remodel and addition of a house I built twenty years ago for my extended family. As a former general contractor for many years I was happy to watch the Boa team maintain a steady attention to the details of time management, high constructions standards and the very specific needs of the project. A fine spirit of creativity and talent pervades every working day for the Boa team. This is rare on a construction site and reflects a respect for the eagerness of the client to achieve the best results for their wished and the budget. They deliver what they promise.

Michele is an outstanding builder, not only because of the high quality of work she produces but also because of the high quality of listening to the client she guarantees. This makes for a win/win.

Michele and Debrae are absolute professionals who are reliable, extremely responsible, honest, and overall people of integrity. We are so delighted to have had Boa Constructor as our contractors for our solar straw bale home. Everything went smoothly from the timeliness to the sub-contractors to the sustainable material choices. Michele and Debrae are experts through and through. They are also extremely talented artistically. We highly recommend Boa Constructor without any hesitation; you will be hard pressed to find contractors and designers of their caliber!

We hired Boa Constructor to help us with a green remodel and addition 3 years ago. We chose to work with Boa based on their expertise with green building practices, impeccable references, and most of all, the great crew. We really appreciated the open, easy communication and professionalism with which Michele led the project. The Boa crew was respectful, responsible, hard working, and a lot of fun! Boa helped us with green options and decisions at each step and the project came in on time and on budget. Boa Constructor is a trustworthy and reliable builder. Quality work, quality people.

In the summer of 2008, Michele and her crew did an extensive kitchen and family room remodel on the home we had just purchased and we couldn’t be happier with the results and the overall experience. Michele was accessible and collaborative throughout, kept us on track, offered excellent design suggestions, and stayed on top of our budget and timeline. If we had a question, Michele responded to phone calls and emails within a day. Her crew was wonderful and very talented, as were the subcontractors. Their work is excellent and we wholeheartedly recommend Boa Constructor.

Michele and her crew built our home 4 years ago and it was a fantastic experience. Given the chance, I’d do it all over again. Michele’s ability to communicate, problem solve and her creativity made the process a great adventure. Her crew was great to be around and each member gave their area the attention to detail any homeowner would appreciate.

Michele Landdegger and Debrae Lopes have done multiple remodels/additions for us over the years. They have been wonderful to work with and the outcome is always beautiful and very nice to live in. I would highly recommend Boa Constructor to anyone looking for quality building or remodeling.
