Making the most of our resources
The purpose of Smart Engineering™ is to deliver efficient design – we maximize square footage to give you more home for your money. By utilizing this process during construction, we ensure that every Jones home is built with the purpose of reducing the quantity of materials used and the waste generated. Materials that are used are the most resource-efficient, while we continually recycle waste materials during the construction process. Every Jones home is also equipped with Mohawk’s™ Green label® flooring.

We install ENERGY STAR® advanced lighting packages, dishwasher, and fans, as well as provide a better selection of optional appliances that are all ENERGY STAR® rated.

Maximizing indoor environment quality
We make it a priority to provide a healthy indoor environment for our homeowners. We ensure quality by minimizing potential sources of pollutants, and therefore, use low-VOC paint. We further manage potential pollutants generated in the home by sealing fireplaces. Plus, we employ the necessary steps to prevent moisture from entering the home through plumbing or heating and cooling systems in the forms of vapor or rainwater.
