Let’s do the math → Stick framing a 2,000 sq ft home takes ~450 studs ($3,150), 5–7 days of labor, plus extra crews for insulation and sheathing.

With SIPs?
✓ Panels replace studs, insulation & sheathing
✓ Installed in just 2–3 days
✓ Up to 55% labor savings and faster project completion

When it comes to energy efficiency, airtight construction is everything... and that’s where SIPs excel.

By creating a tightly sealed envelope, Premier SIPS can slash heating and cooling costs by up to 60%. And with reduced energy demand, HVAC systems can be smaller and more cost-effective. Lower bills, lower build costs, and higher performance, all in one system.

A 6.5-inch SIP wall satisfies or surpasses the energy code standards for residential buildings across all U.S. climate zones—even in the coldest areas.

Meanwhile, a 10.25-inch SIP roof meets the updated 2024 IECC standards, including increased R-values required in northern regions.
