At Retherford Custom Homes, we're always on the lookout for innovative building materials that enhance the quality and durability of our homes. That's why we're excited about the ZIP System, a revolutionary building envelope solution that's transforming the way we construct homes.

What is the ZIP System?

The ZIP System is a high-performance building envelope solution that combines structural sheathing, air barrier, water-resistive barrier, and wind barrier into a single panel. This innovative product offers numerous benefits for both builders and homeowners.

How We Used ZIP System on a Recent Project

Recently, we had the opportunity to use the ZIP System on a custom home build in Tuscumbia, Alabama, located on Ricks Lane. The homeowner was particularly interested in a home that was energy-efficient, durable, and low-maintenance. The ZIP System was the perfect choice for this project.

The ZIP System's integrated water-resistive barrier and air barrier helped us create a tight building envelope, which significantly improved the home's energy efficiency. This means lower utility bills and a more comfortable living environment for the homeowners. Additionally, the system's durability and resistance to water and wind damage provide long-term protection for the home.

Benefits of Using the ZIP System:

  • Improved energy efficiency: Reduces heating and cooling costs
  • Enhanced durability: Protects against water damage, wind, and other environmental factors
  • Faster installation: Streamlines the construction process
  • Increased home value: Improves the overall quality and desirability of the home

We're thrilled with the results of using the ZIP System on this project and look forward to incorporating it into future builds. It's a testament to our commitment to building exceptional homes that stand the test of time.
