At our new location we can also help save money for our customers by providing materials at a lower cost, as we have space for buying in larger quantities resulting in a better discounted price to us as a consumer.  We hope that by offering lower prices for materials we can get more homeowners and business owners interested in making building improvements using Energy Star Rated Products.  Also, 30% of the cost can be taken of homeowners taxes in 2012 and the IRS is also offering various tax credits for businesses as well although different for different industries so contact your accountant for more information.  This makes using better Energy Star Rated products more affordable, and helps to lower overall carbon emmissions every time a homeowner or business owner decides to go green.  For more information on our services, please visit our website or look through our blog post for products and services we offer in the North Carolina, South Carolina, and Georgia areas.  Thanks again to all our customers, and we look forward to helping many more start saving money on their utility cost today.

2012 Tax Credit Information for Energy Star Rated Home Improvements

2012 Tax Credit Information for Energy Star Rated Home Improvements


One of our most common questions when people curious about spray foam insulation is 'How do spray foam companies compete with cheaper fiberglass insulation systems?'  Well the answer to that question is the tax credit.  The past 2 years the tax credit for spray foam insulation had gone down, but this year the IRS has decided to again add incentive for homeowners and business owners that are looking to reduce energy consumption.  In 2012 the tax credit for having spray foam insulation is much better then it has been in years pass, giving homeowners 30% of the cost of having a Energy Star Rated Home Improvement.  With 30% of the cost being paid for in the form of a tax credit, the cost of making a home improvement with Energy Star Rated materials has come down drastically.  As anybody that has ever bought an appliance or electronic with the Energy Star ratings, they're generally a little higher in price yet also a much better product usually as well too. Energy Star products also payback the difference in cost in the form of energy savings as well.

So what's all this mean for the homeowner in North Carolina, South Carolina, and Georgia? Well this means that now is the time to improve the energy efficiency of your home.  With utility companies seeking and getting rate increase approvals from North Carolina and South Carolina utility regulators, now is never a better time to reduce energy consumption.  Spray Foam Insulation, Solar Energy, Energy Efficient Roofing, and Energy Monitoring devices can lower your power bill tremendously.  Spray Foam Insulation can save 33% and more on heating and cooling cost alone.  For more information on Energy Star tax credit information, go the Energy Star Tax Credit web page at:

If your a homeowner in NC, SC, or GA looking to make a Energy Star rated home improvement, give us a call today with any questions or information.  We carry the best home improvement products that can lower utility cost for homeowners.  We have free estimates, so give us a call today.

 GOING BANANAS ! 


 PORICHA PAZHAM 

 The term Pazham in Tamil and Malayalam specifically refers to ripe banana, though the direct translation of Pazham in English is Fruit. 
 Ripe Bananas are an integral part of all cultural and religious activities in South India. The versatile Banana is most exploited by the kitchens in Kerala, where a number of mouth watering dishes are prepared using Ripe Bananas as the main ingredient. 
Poricha Pazham can be prepared in a jiffy. The taste of this filling snack will make one crave for more and more.

Sweet and firm, ripe Bananas - 2 
 Plain flour / Maida - 1 cup 
Powdered jaggery - 2 tbsps 
Cardamom powder - 1 pinch 
Salt - 1/2 pinch

2. Add water little by little and make a thick batter with the ingredients. 
3. Peel and cut the ripe bananas into two or three pieces. 
4. Heat oil in a pan. 
5. When the oil is hot remove one table spoon of oil and pour it on the batter and mix well. 
6. Coat one piece of banana with the prepared batter and gently drop it into the hot oil.


7. Reduce heat and gently fry the pazham turning now and then, till it becomes golden brown in colour on all sides.
