2018 our government shortened the amortiza-

policy was implemented to help avoid a mort-

Our Industry’s Little Secret
By: Claudia Simmonds, CAE, Chief Executive Officer, CHBA-New Brunswick
“I want to share a little secret with you. There is no authority in this Province that “licenses” builders or
renovators. There is no one hired to check for credentials, experience or training of those who work in the
residential construction industry as a builder or renovator or to protect you as a consumer.”
There is no agency that will help you if things go participate in a cash deal (aka – opt out of pay- How to Choose the Right Builder or Renovator

Much Energy as They Consume
The Canadian Home Builders’ Association (CHBA) official-
ly launched its Net Zero Home Labelling Program in May
2017 - continuing CHBA’s long history in leading energy
efficiency in residential construction in NB. The Program
provides the industry and consumers with a clearly de-
fined and rigorous two-tiered technical requirement that
recognizes Net Zero and Net Zero Ready Homes, and trains
the builders and renovators who provide them.
Net Zero training has been developed for CHBA members
who want to be part of this exciting program. This training
will help get the necessary knowledge into the hands of
key stakeholders and accelerate the industry’s capacity to
achieve Net Zero by 2030, a goal set by the Government
Fantech’s Newest of Canada.
Innovation Saves A national network of CHBA Net Zero Qualified Service
Organizations, like CHBA-NB, Energy Advisors and Trainers
will work directly with the builders and renovators to de-

contains next to no oxygen within it. Without ox-

the amount of damage that a fire can cause.
So not only is cellulose perhaps one of the most

insulating.
Polyurethane Insulation
Polyurethane foams are an excellent form of
insulation. Nowadays, polyurethane foams
use non-chlorofluorocarbon (CFC) gas for use
as a blowing agent. This helps to decrease the
amount of damage to the ozone layer. They are
relatively light, weighing approximately two
pounds per cubic foot (2 lb/ft^3). They have an
R-value of approximately R-6.3 per inch of thick-
ness. There are also low density foams that can
be sprayed into areas that have no insulation.
These types of polyurethane insulation tend
to have approximately R-3.6 rating per inch of
thickness. Another advantage of this type of in-
sulation is that it is fire resistant.

Features, Upgrades and Options
One of the unique aspects of buying a brand
new home is that you get to decide on the fea-
tures and finishing touches that you want. Here
are some of the things you should be aware of,
and consider:
Standard Inclusions
A new home comes complete with a range of
standard features and finishes that are included
in the basic price of the home. These vary from
one builder to another, and often from one
home design to another. Uniformly, though, the
quality of today’s standard products is excellent,
offering home buyers great value for the money.
Upgrades and Options
Most builders offer a full range of upgrades –
products of a higher quality such as thicker car-
