Using of hempcrete in the building is still rare because of being costly. A hempcrete structure could cost up to $180 per square foot or more compared to a traditional build, which may cost $120 per square foot. However, using hempcrete could lower the costs for heating and cooling because of its thermal insulation properties.

The typical price point is about sixty dollars in excess of whatever the normal cost for square footage is…. so if you’re figuring $60 per square foot on a build, double it if you are thinking hemp. The first hemp house built in the US cost $133 per square foot.

Depending on the market or location, it could run you anywhere from 120 – 180 dollars per square foot. It could be even more! There is a lot that would go into this seeing that Hemp will have to be cultivated, and depending o the seasons, some towns will make you pay in permits for the use of hempcrete.
It is more expensive than concrete.
