Boise
ICF forms were utilized to build a new custom home on the north side of
Boise. The Triple Ridge Place house was constructed in 1999.

Architects in the Boise area were able to tour a new custom home
as it was being built with "the new industry standard" of insulating concrete
form walls. Designers came by the project on the east side of town
to learn framing methods common to commercial construction. These methods
were beginning
to be applied to single family home construction.
This house uses ICF walls and is another "concrete home" in the
Boise metropolitan area.

Nampa
When contractors build homes for themselves, more and more of them choose
ICFs for the benefits of solid wall construction. In Nampa, the
owner of Trademark Homes started a search for improved framing methods
in the early
1990's. George Betts selected a brand of insulating concrete forms
and decided to build a new home for his family first, to assess construction
speed and
efficiency. He also wanted to experience living in a home with ICF
walls before offering these homes to the public. For an added thermal
barrier under
the slab-on-grade concrete floor, Trademark installed a layer of fine
volcanic cinder as a base material.
The years since then have convinced George Betts, President of Trademark Homes, that ICF construction is a superior way to build homes.

Post Falls
The summer of 2000 brought more ICF housing starts than ever before. The
homeowner, who is in the construction industry but didn't have experience
with ICFs, preferred ICFs over traditional framing and selected Evan
Ferguson Concrete to install the ICF
walls.
Rexburg
Eastern Idaho also has builders that offer higher quality construction than
the minimum allowed by the building code.
