Newcastle Homes is an award-winning innovative builder with 14 years of expertise building in the Corpus Christi and Port Aransas, Texas area. Newcastle Homes is a US Environmental Protection Agency National Partner in the ENERGY STAR New Homes, and Indoor airPlus voluntary programs. Newcastle Homes is also a Zero Energy Ready Home Partner through the US Department of Energy and is in the top 1% of builders in the country meeting extraordinary levels of excellence in energy and performance. Newcastle Homes is at the forefront of home construction practices and adheres to strict building guidelines to deliver quality homes. Open cell insulation, ENERGY STAR® certified windows, and cool roofs are a few of the energy efficient home features found in a Newcastle Home.
Open cell insulation traps air that lessens the heat transfer through the foam virtually eliminating air leakage to properly seal your home to minimize exposure to airborne pollutants and contaminants. Moisture accumulation is also reduced with properly installed insulation, and indoor air quality is improved. Newcastle Homes installs ENERGY STAR certified windows that are independently tested, certified, and verified by the National Fenestration Rating Council to meet strict energy efficiency guidelines set by the US Environmental Protection Agency. Vinyl framed ENERGY STAR certified windows block the solar radiation and allow the whole house system to operate efficiently to reduce household energy bills. Cool roofs are designed to reflect more sunlight and absorb less heat than a standard roof and reflect the heat away from the home to keep your home cool and comfortable in the extremely hot and humid Texas summers.
Newcastle Homes has participated in the AEP Texas High-Performance Homes Program since 2009 and John Pope has experience building ENERGY STAR Homes since 2002. Newcastle Homes is presented with numerous Coastal Bend Home Builders Association Parade of Homes awards consistently and has won the Single Highest Energy Savings awards throughout the years in the AEP Texas High-Performance Homes Program. Newcastle Homes is a versatile builder that cares for the environment and has equipped several homes with solar panels and is preparing client-specific homes with electric vehicle charging stations to embrace current trends.
