SUPERIOR DESIGN |
|
In 1981, home builder Mel Zimmerman founded
Superior Walls because he was dissatisfied with the
centuries-old foundation processes of the past. The system he pioneered proved vastly superior
to any traditional method. Today every aspect of your Superior Walls
foundation is engineered to be the finest in the world. Trust your
Superior Walls foundations to remain dry, warm, smart...superior in every way. Guaranteed.

DRY |
|
Superior Walls
foundations are produced in
our factory-controlled indoor environments, keeping building materials
warm and dry. Our special high-strength, low water/cement-ratio is formed
directly to full-length insulation in the factory, creating a formidable barrier to
moisture and water vapor. Joints are specially sealed with a triple
bead of Bostik © sealant. A crushed stone sub-footer and perimeter
drain channel water away from your foundation, keeping your basement
dry and making it a great place for living, not just storage.

|
WARM |
|
Superior Walls are created
with extra living space in mind, so they arrive from our factory
pre-insulated and ready to finish. Because we know that over 20% of a building's
energy loss can occur through the basement, our DOW © Styrofoam
insulated walls save money on energy bills while making a comfortable
living environment. And for the coldest northern environments, the
built-in space between the concrete studs is perfect for adding extra
insulation as high as R-32, requiring no additional studs.
A Superior Walls foundation keeps your home energy-efficient and warm through every cold winter.

FAST |
|
Superior Walls are the
quickest way for your foundation to be built and ready to be finished.
We know time is money, so our trained crews work with speed and
precision. Our typical Superior Walls
foundation installs in five hours or less, reducing construction delays
and time lost on the job site. Our precast wiring holes and wood
nailers assure that you can also finish your basement with the same
speed and precision. We do all the necessary work for you in our
factory, so you can spend your valuable time building more superior
homes.

|
SQUARE |
|
The reliability and consistency of our factory process assures superior
precision on your job site. Stationary factory forms guarantee that all
Superior Walls foundations are square, eliminating
headaches for both builders and homeowners. Our foundations are custom
made to your specifications, and conform to virtually any home style or
design. No matter what form they take, Superior Walls
are guaranteed to always be plumb, level and square.

|
SMART |
|
At Superior Walls, we've
planned for everything down to the smallest detail. We design-in
precast access holes for easy wiring, metal studs that are straight and
true for effortless drywall installation, and built-in openings for
your windows and doors. Today's smart builders are looking to their
foundations to create added home value, and we deliver it. We employ
the world's finest technologies to create the world's finest
foundations. Let us handle all the details, so you can handle selling
and building more of your own superior custom homes.

STRONG |
|

which contains the National Standards for residential concrete construction.
Solid concrete studs reinforced with steel complete our
superior package, ensuring that your Superior Walls
foundation remains strong for the life of your home. Superior Walls
pass every strength test. Your building reputation can continue to grow on our solid foundation.
