Reclaiming Waste: Low Footprint Builds That Don’t Cost the Earth

Trying to find ways of having a low-footprint renovation or build? Did you know waste can account for 15% to 30% of your overall budget for a traditional building project

You can reclaim this opportunity by matching with the right builder: perhaps the most important decision when it comes to reaching your sustainability goals.

This was our first online event with a builder, and they’re a cracker: Jason Rahilly, founder of Gypco Builders who gave us the inside scoop on accounting and diverting waste and carbon for your construction projects, looking at it from both the homeowners and builders side of things wanting to get ahead of the curve.

Gypco Builders are committed to evolving the building industry as it is lagging in reducing our environmental impact. With years of experience in Environmental consultation as well as being a Licensed builder, Jason will share with us his wealth of experience. From eliminating waste from all aspects of the supply chain and build process, to learning from construction case studies, from healthy home transformations to earth ships!

They are excited for a future where we can recognise a goal of Regeneration and appreciate Sustainability is a transition stage only, we can evolve our industry to build with the planet not against it and so are we! Beyond only building, Jason has also been the founder and director of B-Alternative Environmental Consultancy since 2016. B-Alternative aims to cultivate awareness of environmental issues and to provide low impact advisory to individuals, businesses and groups.
