Urban Homesteaders, LLC

At Urban Homesteaders LLC, we strive to empower the homeowner to improve the efficiency of their living space, use their landscaping to provide benefit to the home and residents, and use their skills to begin or advance a home-based business. We specialize in enabling environmentally friendly living spaces that can help people live comfortably, enjoy their investment, and ensure that existing homes cost less to operate and maintain.

We offer consultation in the areas of:

• Energy saving upgrades (HVAC, lighting, insulation)
• Renewable energy systems (solar, wind, biofuels)
• Rainwater catchment (rain barrels, cisterns, irrigation)
• Green building design (materials, site plans, passive solar)
• Sustainable landscaping (edible, native, local)

Our range of services includes:

• e-Consulting - we will advise via email (or phone).
• On-site Consulting - we will visit the home to investigate and discuss needs and concerns.
• Project Design - we will design a solution and provide the information necessary to implement it.
• Project Implementation - we can recommend professional contractors and help you evaluate their work to make sure the job is done to your satisfaction!
• Project Review - we will help figure out just how much money, energy or resources can be saved, and see if improvements qualify for tax rebates or other incentives.
• Certification - we can certify homes for the EPA’s ENERGY STAR rating if it meets appropriate standards.

It all starts with the homeowner, and your commitment to giving your family an advantage that many more people are realizing – that a ‘green’ home is better for you, your wallet and your community.

We look forward to helping you become more energy efficient and ecologically aware. Please contact us to discuss how we can provide you with our customized services.
