LEEDS

LEED stands for Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design and it is a certification process awarded to builders who construct environmentally-friendly homes and office buildings. LEED offers four levels of certification to new builds; certified, gold, silver and platinum. This certification is based on sustainable sites, water efficiency, materials and resources, energy  and indoor environmental quality. The LEED certification ensures to potential buyers of the building that it has met standards for “green” living.
