Matali Builds

Thank you Tiffany and Walk Your Plans Madison WI for having us in the showroom!

Reviewing our upcoming project at true 1:1 scale is incredible. Their innovative projection technology lets you walk right through a floor plan and see real-size layouts before a single nail is hammered. It completely takes the guesswork out of spatial flow and helps us ensure every custom detail is exactly where it needs to be.

Highly recommend their service to anyone looking to build or renovate!

Welcome to MABA, Matali Builds! 👏

It’s that time of year again! As the weather finally turns, we’re ready to get back outside and enjoy the fresh air. ☀️

A custom covered patio isn’t just about shade—it’s about creating a seamless transition from your living room to the outdoors. Whether it’s hand-selected Douglas Fir beams or integrated lighting for summer nights, outdoor spaces should be designed to feel like a true part of the home.

From foundation to finished home. 🏠

This modern home I worked on in 2023 achieved "Built Green" certification through several high-performance features:

Solar Power: Installed an advanced solar package for renewable energy.

Cool Roofing: Used a light-colored, reflective roofing membrane to reflect solar heat, significantly reducing cooling costs.

Hyper-Local Sourcing: We prioritized local suppliers and manufacturers who utilize local raw material sources. By keeping the supply chain close to home, we significantly reduced the carbon footprint associated with long-distance shipping.

Native Landscaping: Utilized drought-resistant, native plants to limit water consumption.

Stormwater Management: Increased the lot's permeable surface area with permeable pavers, keeping stormwater on-site and protecting nearby lakes and streams.

Healthy Interiors: Utilized low-VOC (Volatile Organic Compound) adhesives, finishes, and paints to ensure superior indoor air quality.

Premium Envelope: Installed high-performance windows and exterior doors, paired with advanced air sealing and insulation.

We are proud to be a Wisconsin Focus on Energy Trade Ally!

Homes built and certified under the Focus on Energy New Homes Program outperform homes built to the code standard by at least 30%.

In the program, we partner with a Building Performance Consultant to have our homes tested and rated to ensure compliance with the program's requirements.

Some of the measures taken to build at this higher standard include:

-Using high-efficiency furnaces and air conditioners.
-Increasing insulation values in walls, ceilings, foundations, windows, and doors.
-Air sealing the home to prevent unwanted drafts and energy leakage.
-Utilizing premium air exhaust equipment to remove stale, moist, or polluted air and replace it with fresh, clean air.
-Installing tankless, heat pump, or other high-efficiency water heaters.
