The Hoots Group
The Hoots Group is Atlanta’s full-service green contractor. From custom new homes and renovations to building performance solutions, we have been serving Atlanta for over 30 years! We take pride in renovating and building fine homes and providing home performance improvements to existing homes. In all our projects, we employ the ”whole-house” approach in order to make your home healthy, comfortable, and energy efficiency.
A Hoots Home is not simply a house, but it’s a statement about how life should be lived — stylishly and graciously with an eye toward sustainable practices that make your home a healthy, energy- efficient environment for your family.
A well-crafted, new home will provide decades of faithful service that is custom-tailored to your personality, needs, and preferences. From drawing the plans to finishing the cabinets, The Hoots Group provides turnkey designs and new custom home construction services. We can also customize and build from existing plans.
While many firms provide custom houses, The Hoots Group takes a unique approach to the design and construction of your custom home. All Hoots Homes are designed and built using energy-efficient, environmentally responsible building techniques. Your home will provide the highest levels of comfort available, and you can rest assured knowing that your home meets the most exacting standards of efficient and green construction.
All of our houses are built to EarthCraft House, LEED for Homes, and/or Energy Star standards. Not only do you get to live in a better built house, but if you decide to sell your house in the state of Georgia, you can list your house on FMLS under these certifications.
