High-Performance Home Standards™
High-Performance Home Standards™
At Dillard-Jones, our homes are built stronger from the ground up. We use a G&C subfloor that’s glued and screwed over an L/720 engineered floor system, which means stiffer, squeak-free floors. The exterior walls are framed with durable 2×6 lumber, and we install top-of-the-line Sierra Pacific windows and doors for exceptional strength and performance.
We build homes that offer a quieter, more comfortable living experience. We use spray foam insulation throughout the entire exterior shell—including the roof—paired with 2×6 framing for added insulation and noise reduction. Inside, we install rockwool insulation in mid-floors and interior walls to further dampen sound between rooms and living spaces. Even the plumbing is designed for silence, with cast iron drops that prevent the sound of running water.
Safety is a top priority in every Dillard-Jones home. We include multi-point locking systems on all exterior doors and pre-wire every home for a full security system. These features work together to offer our homeowners greater peace of mind.
Our homes are also built to support healthier living. We install 4-inch Ultravation filters with UV light treatment in the air handlers for cleaner air. Every surface and finish is selected to avoid harmful emissions—no-VOC paints, prefinished floors, and cabinets finished off-site ensure there’s no off-gassing inside your home.
Finally, Dillard-Jones homes are equipped with smart technology for modern living. We wire every home for TVs, speakers, security systems, and cameras, and include smart features like thermostats and instant hot water systems for added convenience and efficiency.
