Eco-Warrior takes tired old buildings and refurbishes them from top to bottom making extensive use of renewable, sustainable and eco-friendly materials. Bamboo is one of our favourite materials and its versatility is legendary. We install vaulted ceilings and skylights, redo kitchens and bathrooms, use eco-friendly paint and materials and redo gardens and patios and decks. Our strong re-use and re-cycle philosophy motivates us to rejuvenate tired old pieces of furniture into new and highly attractive artefacts. We avoid the use of materials which exude volatile organic compounds (VOCs) such as benzene, toluene and similar solvents. We use natural water-based paints and adhesives,
We install geyser monitor/controllers to immediately reduce your consumption of electricity. We don't guarantee a percentage saving, but we will buy your electricity account from you every month that you show a saving over the previous month, for a year. We install rain-water harvesting systems, water re-use systems and we re-plumb your house and swimming pool so that you can use water twice or more. We know you will save water and we will also buy your water account from you for every month that you show a saving over the previous month, for a year. We recommend and project manage the installation of solar water heaters to further reduce your energy consumption. Solar-generated electrical energy holds huge potential for the future. Solar powered battery back up systems designed specifically for your needs are installed and maintained. We change most lights to energy efficient compact fluorescent lamps (CFLs) or LED light fittings. We design and build water-efficient bathroom systems. We convert kitchens to gas and build in all the necessary venting and extraction. We install skylights and build vaulted ceilings to improve indoor lighting and airflow. We install geyser blankets and ceiling insulation. We seal doors and windows so that the draughts are minimised and energy does not escape. We are equipped to project manage entire eco-make-over's on residential properties. This extends from electricity and water saving through to efficient electrical back-up systems and setting up of home vegetable gardens and planting of indigenous water-wise gardens. |
