Eco Performance Builders’ owners Scott and Keith O’Hara have been Green Building Contractors since 1997. We take pride in providing the best building practices for every project we work on. We have built many homes from the ground up and renovated hundreds throughout the years. We keep up with all of the latest Green Building standards by taking building science and green building courses, reading the latest publications, learning from our colleagues in the industry at conferences and local meetings and by performing the work ourselves.
