Rammed Earth is a redicovered ancient technique of building. Walls are formed by pounding a mixture of soil, cement, and water into reusable forms using pneumatic tampers. The resulting house is extremely efficient, owner friendly (basically no maintenance) and a house unlike any other in terms of beauty and stability. It is this mixture which Rammed Earth building uses, along with the pounding, compacting work done by men and pneumatic tampers that makes incredibly strong, efficient, beautiful to look at homes. Earth & Sun Construction can offer Frame/Stucco, Adobe, and any Custom Alterations your heart desires. Earth & Sun Construction has been building here in New Mexico since 1980 and we have the experience and know how to handle any job in the state. We take pride in each home built with our technique and expect every home to be a new and exciting event for both us and you the owner. Each home is tweaked and fine tuned until everything is just the way you want it.
While building you the highest quality home available, these are some of the features included in all our homes, and of course as mentioned before, you can add just about any custom idea you have as well.
