RESILIENT HOME PROGRAM (RHP) COMPOSITE WOOD CONSTRUCTION

The Resilient Home Program (RHP) is a Community Development Block Grant Mitigation (CDBG-MIT) pilot program administered by the Texas General Land Office (GLO). The Resilient Home Program provides reconstruction services for homeowners affected by Hurricane Harvey, who have damaged homes from South Texas to the Louisiana border. This program provides the reconstruction of homes using resilient construction methods to be able to withstand 2 feet of water for 24 hours.

Some special features include our mold-resistant wall assembly, specialized treatment on cabinetry and wall assembly, closed cell foam insulation in the bottom of the wall assembly, ceramic tile with grout sealant, sealed interior wood doors, rubber cove base, fiberglass exterior doors, MEPs in the attic, conditioned attic space, and green-friendly construction methods. This program also includes various types of composite wood materials that are utilized in the construction of the homes.

JWTC has been issued work orders throughout Texas. This program currently has approximately 63 jobs either completed or under construction.
