Teaming up with Habitat for Humanity

To the satisfaction of our site superintendent, the Hughes construction crew was hard at work nailing, sawing, drilling, and measuring (not in that order!).

Thanks to the folks at Habitat for Humanity in the Roanoke Valley, we were assigned to an ICF (insulated concrete form) house and got to learn about its design and construction. We also had the opportunity to meet the wonderful family who will be living in this house soon. We’re looking forward to the next one!
