Creating Extraordinary Homes Tailored to Perfection

At RJ Stegora Inc., we're not just builders; we're innovators. We're experienced builders of high quality homes. Our mission is to create high-efficiency housing that balances functionality, sustainability, and aesthetics.

When you choose passive house, you're choosing quality, comfort and sustainability. Fundamental to the energy efficiency of these homes are the following five principles which are central to Passive House design and construction:

1) superinsulated envelope
2) airtight construction
3) high performance glazing
4) thermal-bridge-free detailing
5) heat recovery ventilation

What does this mean for our clients? A superinsulated envelope isolates your indoor environment from sudden changes in the weather. Thick walls and south facing windows make the most bitter cold Minnesota day feel cozy warm inside. High performance glazing and triple pane windows will capture the heat from the sun and minimize utility costs. Airtight construction coupled with thermal bridge detailing not only minimizes heat loss but also prevents deterioration in the structure. Heat recovery ventilation through a state of the art air exchange system will maintain exceptional air quality.

Our homes are designed to minimize energy use and maximize comfort while personalizing your home to your families needs. These homes are more than just structures; they're a lifestyle choice that contributes to a sustainable future.

We're not just building houses; we're creating homes. Each of our projects is handled one-on-one, from start to finish. It's our personalized approach that sets us apart. We take the time to understand your vision, listen to your ideas, and turn them into reality.

Passive house is not just about efficiency alone but also a path toward net zero. This means the total amount of energy used by the home on an annual basis is roughly equal to the same or less than the amount of renewable energy created on the site.

These homes are a testament to our commitment to beautiful sustainable building.
