Surging demand

Bruce takes the lead on this one . “ ICF has taken over as the market ’ s main stronghouse ,” he asserts . “ In fact , I don ’ t think I ’ ve ever seen anything that ’ s even come close to touching it , especially from a client-perspective .

“ Every once in a while , someone will try and push a new

wall system , but they never get momentum behind them . There ’ s just something about ICF : the ease of installing the blocks and pouring the concrete , the numerous benefits it offers ; it ’ s just a great product . “ And it will continue to improve and evolve ,” he continues . “ In 100 years , there will probably be tons of ICF homes up and down the US because , when you think

about it , there are no major negatives .

ICF or Insulated Concrete Forms is a building model that was first used after World War II

“ We ’ re honored to be spotlighted by

Modern Home Builders because we take

our product and clients very seriously . It ’ s funny , really , we get quite a number of calls and emails from people who are either looking for or have bought one of our existing ICF homes , some of which are over 20 years old , and a common thing we hear is that they hold distinct additional value because of how we ’ ve built them .” Bruce has personally lived in four different Carrell Group-built ICF homes . He ’ s a self-confessed lover of the building methodology .
