Dedicated to Green Building
A Message From Jim Blansfield, President

I have always been an environmentalist in my private life, contributing to lake and river associations and the like. I know even prior to having children my wife Margie and I had wondered how much of a carbon footprint we were leaving on our earth, even though we did not know that term until a few years ago. We truly were concerned about the legacy we would leave our girls.

I am now proud to say that Jim Blansfield and Blansfield Builders, Inc. is a registered Green Builder. It has taken time and effort on my part, but, well worth it. The knowledge I have gained, coupled with the latest energy saving technology, will help my devoted clients to make intelligent decisions on how to limit our need for fossil fuels. Together we can make a difference.
