What is Eco-Build?

  •  Eco-Build is a directory of local suppliers, builders and designers contributing to sustainable development on Salt Spring Island.  Not all businesses on Eco-Build are 100 percent green but they can provide you with products, services and advice to help you decide how best to reduce your environmental impact while building, renovating, landscaping or simply enjoying your home, office and land.

Who is Eco-Build for?

  • Community members looking to explore sustainable building, renovation and retrofit options to make their homes, offices and land use more sustainable. 

  • Local businesses providing Eco-efficient products and services that may be used to build renovate or improve the sustainability of development on the island. 

Why do we need Eco-Build?

  • Salt Spring is developing and we can all help to ensure that it is developed sustainably. Thankfully along with property development demand for sustainable building design, products and services is also increasing and many of our local designers, builders and suppliers are responding.

  • Eco-Build aims to encourage these initiatives by helping new and existing residents find local designers, builders and suppliers who can help them to make sustainable choices.

I-SEA does not claim to be an authority on Green/Eco design or building. Rather, I-SEA has observed a need within the SSI community for a user friendly directory of businesses who seek to work outside of the conventional boundaries of design and building in order to achieve: improved energy efficiency; less waste; and a succinctness of our homes with our natural environment. As such, it is important to note that at this point in time, I-SEA has not established specific criteria for those businesses participating in the directory and recognizes its lack of authority to do so.
