Every few years, the International Code Council updates building codes so all of us in construction and homebuilding can uphold a higher standard. These requirements push all of us to build smarter and more energy-efficient homes. We make every adjustment to meet these standards, but never sacrifice our mission to build homes that just feel right.
Here’s how we do it (hover over a number to read about our process):
Disclaimer: The videos below were filmed in 2010. The International Code Council updates building codes every year so we all can uphold a higher standard. Some specifications may have changed since the filming of this video. Berks Homes reserves the right to update or change any of the construction processes displayed in these videos.

We use a sump pump and crock in every basement to redirect all ground water away from the home’s foundation. For daylight foundations (as shown), the footer drains directly to daylight.
We have an in-house estimating team that configures the exact amount of wood we’ll need to build each home so we don’t waste.
Lawncare and other outdoor activities often require power or water, or both. We provide 2 exterior electrical outlets and faucets to make those chores easier for you.
The last place you want to waste money on heating and air is in the garage. We provide insulated garage doors to keep things warmer, cooler, and quieter.
We wrap every home in a weather resistant barrier.
We install an electrical outlet in every attic we build to give you options for evacuating radon gas.
Our state of the art Manabloc plumbing system saves water by using a separate, dedicated line for each fixture. This allows faster flowing water and less waste. It’s more cost-effective and versatile than copper. This is not included in all communities.

The exhaust fans we install in every bathroom ensures proper ventilation of moisture.
We install hard-wired smoke and carbon monoxide detectors with battery backups in every bedroom and on every floor.
All of our homes feature a GE appliance package including a range, dishwasher, and microwave.
Your home is now complete! We are proud to say you’ll spend more energy enjoying it than heating, cooling or maintaining it.

Gusset plates and hurricane straps or screws increase the rigidity and strength of your roof, securing it in place.

We require screws or special nails, along with extra strength construction glue when installing our subfloor. This eliminates squeaks and builds a more rigid base for our flooring.
Our corners allow for maximum insulation and ample drywall attachment. This reduces the likelihood of drywall cracking in corners.

Insulation keeps your home warmer in the winter and cooler in the summer. We install insulation that keeps your home the temperature you want.
We place outlets every 12’ or less throughout the entire living area to keep your cords to a minimum.
