We would like to weigh in as extremely satisfied buyers of Castleblock products and services. Pete and I discovered Castleblock's webside while trying to decide between a Honsador package or Multi-faceted. The MF homes are beautiful (visited one in Hana on Maui), but costly. To us, the Protec and Galvamet products made excellent sense from a longevity perspective, so chose that.
Rob is an exceptionally good person to work with. He's generous with his time and knowledge, and absolutely honest and straightforward. When there's a problem, he will deal honestly with it. You can't go wrong with this...
Pete and I built the home, contracted out the foundation/slab, electrical and plumbing. We found local folks to help us put up the structure, and have taken it from there ourselves. The material cost was probably comparative to stick built, but the speed of using the SIP's for exterior walls and roof was incredible. We built small (1000 sq ft.), and it took about a month and a half, with the crew working 3-4 days/week, 4 hours per day.
Good luck with your building!
