ABOUT US

Working with us is not for everyone.

While we are certainly open to talking to all interested parties about working with SIREWALL, we are not looking for customers in the conventional sense. We are committed to developing partnerships to create exceptional projects that deliver SHEBA and FJA!!!

WHAT IS SHEBA?

S

Strength/sturdiness

Construction comparable to high-strength concrete, that requires a fraction of cost in maintenance over time as well as being flood, fire, earthquake, and zombie proof.

H

Healthy

We are committed to building the healthiest homes in the world. Everything from the positive energetic impact of natural materials, the endorsement from a world-leading doctor in mold and fungus and also being gluten-free.

E

Environment

SIREWALL enables remarkably low energy usage for things such as heating and cooling as well as the main construction material being local aggregates and sands.

B

Beauty

While certainly a matter of taste for many, the aesthetics of SIREWALL is in a completely different category than traditional construction. And not only for the eyes. The acoustics for sound and music are exceptional while automatically dampening the volume of any requests for chores being shouted out.

A

Awesomeness

If you still need an explanation for this one, it's probably not for you. Suffice to say that Po the panda would happily live here.

For our business model – redefining how a business can be run to better nurture people, the planet, and profits. Instead of consuming the earth and having a business that serves itself, we elevate all aspects of life with our company. Helping to bring a regenerative business model to the world.

For the Earth beyond "sustainable" – our goal is to regenerate (not just offset or maintain) the planet. The more we grow and succeed, the more we will have a net positive impact on critical aspects of the earth.


For People – our customers, staff, suppliers, and the communities in which we work. We are committed to elevating the joy and quality of peoples’ lives.

OUR TEAM

Given the limited capacity we have on our consulting and building end we are only available for people looking to operate from similar values and intentions, and help us launch a new way of doing things in the world. A good sense of humor and a dash of political incorrectness will also be required. If you would like to dig in some more, please let us know. Reach out if you are curious and would like to be more informed, have specific questions you would like to have answered, are seriously looking at partnering up on a build and need a full consultation, or are just lonely and need someone interesting to talk to...

JOIN OUR TEAM

We are looking for Joe – The Go Getter! *

Our employees are committed and passionate about what they do.  Employee’s work environment is creative, supportive and requires teamwork.  We are team and family.

 

*A “Joe – Go Getter” is a mythical creature that is proud of their work, is precise with a tape measure and capable of critical thinking. On our world class project this mythical creature adapts seamlessly to the tasks at hand and any changes that comes his/her way, with consideration for the impacts on budget, timeline, and other team members. Through a collaborative and caring environment a “Joe – The Go Getter” excels in the quest to guard “The Rock of FJA”**.  A “Joe – The Go Getter” acts with the clients’ best interests at heart and is able to provide the best solutions and value possible.

 

 ** Mythical creatures are often claimed to have supernatural powers or knowledge or to guard some object of great value.  The Rock of FJA is our symbol of optimal value.
