I was able to heat A-frame with a 1500 watt heater, one weekend, to 65 when it was in the 20's outside.

			Panel Facts

			How long have panels been around? Since 1950's, when the first home was built using panels. This home is still standing and occupied. The cost was the main reason for the unpopularity. But now, with the price of lumber, and the future availability of lumber, the use of panels is very "forest friendly."

Getting Started

We specialize in the custom manufacturing of Structural Insulated Panels to suit your needs. Because of this, we do not have floor-plans to pick and choose from. We give bids based on architectural plans or blueprints submitted. This helps us to provide you with a more accurate bid. The more detailed the plan, the more accurate the estimate. The following is the recommended protocol for getting started;

Send us your full set of plans to scale.

Email your CAD files, to
We will send you an estimate on what the SIPs panel package will cost for your design.
This checklist (PDF format) lists all of the information/materials we must have prior to beginning a project.
When the job becomes a project, we begin work on the shop drawings. Once the shop drawings are completed, our structural engineer will run the numbers for loads on the Structral Insulated Panels and then engineer stamp the panel plans. NOTE: if you make any changes (regardless how minor) after the redlines are signed off, it is considered a "change order" and it WILL cause delays.
Upon final approval of the overall plan, IB Panels ® will begin the construction and assembly of the high quality SIPs panels for your project.
Final payment of the remaining 50% is expected prior to delivery.

NOTE: Turn around time varies during the different parts of the year. We can give you a general idea of what the turn around time is, but due to circumstances that can occur, beyond our control, turn around times can face delays.
