HURRICANE IAN UPDATE
Hurricane IAN - Not even a challange for our System
Results of Hurricane IAN: After several hours of 155mph pounding winds (strong Cat 4) with higher gusts, Hurricane IAN destroyed many homes and businesses in Punta Gorda. The home we built (see picture gallery below) was not damaged!
CEO's Comments . . .
I personally never understood why everyone hasn't built with Omnicrete! Think of it: Our system costs less than a conventionally built home, it resists winds well over a Category 5 hurricane, resists tornados up to 500 MPH, can't get termites, can't get wood rot or mold and can't burn down. As a bonus the energy consumption is 70% plus less, saving hundreds of dollars per month into perpetuity. The only thing I can think of is that people were not properly informed about us. You saw the damage a hurricane can do and now that you know about us, it is time you decided based on common sense and protection for your family!

Rising Material Cost:
The Price of Lumber is up 193%
—and about to spike even higher
BY LANCE LAMBERT April 13, 2021 5:15 AM EDT
Lumberyards and homebuilders alike have delayed buying lumber from sawmills in hopes the price of the sky-high commodity would finally come back down to earth. It hasn’t budged, and now the buying rush is on ahead of spring and summer projects. This influx of buyers is only further driving up the price. On Friday, the price of lumber per thousand board feet jumped to $1,048, according to Random Lengths. That’s an all-time high, and up 193% from a year ago. That price jump is unlikely to be the last. On Monday, the May futures contract price per thousand board feet of two-by-fours jumped $32 to $1,158. That uptick would have been higher had circuit breakers not been halted 20 minutes into trading—something that occurs when the commodity is up more than $32 during a single trading day.

THE BOTTOM LINE
Omnicrete has Building Materials:
Don't delay your project. Build with Omnicrete who has access to unlimited supply of building materials used in it's system. Why do we have materials and other builders don't? We do not use, wood, CMU block, drywall or shingles.
Omnicrete Construction Costs are Much Lower:
Our costs over the past months of inflation have been in the single digits compared to wood which is 193% and climbing. Since many builders are shifting over to CMU Block due to the scarcity of wood, CMU plants are having trouble keeping up with demand. Applying the laws of supply and demand, when demand out paces supply, costs tend to naturally increase.
In Conclusion, the Choice is Yours:
- Build with Omnicrete and get your home done on time and at a much lower cost. or...
- If you have a builder selected and want to build in one of their subdivisions, ask them to call us. We will work as a subcontractor to build the shell of your home and allow your contractor complete the home with his regular subcontractors. That way you can use your chosen builder, build in their subdivision and get all the benefits of an Omnicrete built home!
Our Home is Still Standing without a scratch
Hurricane IAN was no match for the home we built in Punta Gorda, Florida. The home
sustained a direct hit with 155 mph winds. It didn't even sustain a scratch! Many homes, and roofs were destroyed and many lives lost. Our homeowners returned to a home just as they left it! Thank you Omnicrete!
