Discover the Truth About ICF Homes vs. Conventional: Cost, Benefits, and More! In this video, we tackle the burning question we receive constantly: How much more does an ICF house cost compared to a conventional 2x6 or wood-framed home? We understand the importance of having all the facts before making a decision, so we've compiled comprehensive research to provide you with the answers. Prepare to be pleasantly surprised! From ICF walls to the rafters (or trusses), the price difference is much smaller than you might expect. But what truly sets ICF homes apart are the countless benefits that far outweigh the additional costs. In fact, it's hard to even compare the two systems, as the architect we know always says, 'I can't build an ICF home poorly enough to compare to conventional.' Join us in this eye-opening video where we shed light on the affordability and unmatched advantages of ICF homes. Don't miss out on getting way more bang for your buck!
