Art Buhs Construction is leading the way in Central Minnesota with constant improvements in home construction. We're actively involved in promoting Geothermal or "ground source" climate control, sprayed foam insulation, panelized wall construction, ICF concrete walls, and much more.
- Geothermal heating, air conditioning, and domestic hot water saves as much as a third or more on your energy bills. When incorporated into a home's mortgage, the savings on monthly utility costs easily outweigh the slight increase in the cost of the mortgage. You're saving money right from the start.

- Sprayed foam insulation in such areas as rim joists, walls, and ceilings can vastly increase a home's efficiency. Eliminating air and moisture movement between the interior and exterior of your home is crucial for reduced energy costs, mold and decay prevention, and improved comfort. Art Buhs Construction makes this technology available in all new homes and additions. It's a wise investment in your project and the future of our environment.
- ICF (Insulating Concrete Form) construction may be the pinnacle of wall design. It's tremendously strong, quiet, and energy efficient. Art Buhs Construction has built many ICF homes and are experts at making sure it's done right. Click here for more on why ICF may be exactly what you're looking for.
- Panelized walls and SIPS (Structural Insulated Panels) are the path to more efficient, sturdy, durable, comfortable homes. Why would we build a home on site, largely by hand, using raw materials from many sources, when we can have the components assembled at a climate-controlled location using high precision and modern materials? Panelized walls and SIPS walls are superior to traditionally framed walls by nearly any measure. They withstand harsh weather better. They're vastly more efficient. They're straighter and flatter, and they can take up much less space, saving either floor area or ceiling space, or both. This type of modern construction is already taking other parts of the country by storm, and Art Buhs Construction is bringing this technology to Central Minnesota.
