How does the cost of an ICF home compare to other homes?
It depends on what you compare it with. Compared to a conventional home with traditional framing, the initial cost of an ICF home is approximately 5% higher. However, a traditionally built home with the same level of energy efficiency, noise reduction and overall high performance costs the same as, or even more than, an ICF home. And when you consider the energy savings, up to 60% compared with a conventional home, an ICF home can actually save you money in the long run.
