Building America’s Healthy Home Platform™

Mr Hemp House®, GaiaCrete™, Home Health Scan™ and the wider healthy-home ecosystem are the largest current effort inside that work — changing how homes are understood, built and improved.

See what I’m building

Building America’s Healthy Home Platform™

Seven stages, one idea: a home should be understood before it is renovated, and improved before it is decorated.

Know what your home is made of.

Most homes are assembled from materials nobody explains to the people living inside them. Understanding comes first: what is in the walls, the finishes, the air, and how a house behaves over decades.

Healthy Homes

The Home Health Score™ is an informational building and home-condition assessment tool. It is not a medical diagnosis, medical test, or guarantee of health outcomes.

You cannot fix a home you do not understand — and you cannot build a business you have never sold.

Built from the field, not a boardroom.

I’m Christopher L. Penn — a U.S. Air Force veteran, father, believer, and builder. I started out in sales and business development, from launching Wireless Wave to automotive and pharmaceutical-related sales, then spent roughly 17 years in renovation, construction, and restoration. That work taught me how to sell, build, operate, and grow businesses from the ground up — including companies that reached seven figures in annual sales. Today I’m building America’s Healthy Home Platform™ through Mr Hemp House® and Home Health Scan™, along with healthier building materials and systems, while developing businesses in sales technology, digital legacy, brand development, entrepreneurship, publishing, and education. The industries look different; the way I think about them is the same.

The work today: Mr Hemp House®, GaiaCrete™, Home Health Scan™, RepVise™, VoiceWill™ and Build a Business in 24 Hours, plus his writing on healthy homes.
