Custom Homes and Custom Decks in the Okanagan

Two things, done properly. We build sustainable custom homes on your lot and the decks that go with them, across West Kelowna, Kelowna, Lake Country, Peachland and Summerland.

Custom Homes

The EcoHome

A sustainable custom home built on your lot. Ample space inside a small footprint, which is what makes it work equally well as a rental property, a comfortable in-law suite, or a cottage retreat for downsizing. Built with eco-conscious materials and energy-efficient practices, finished to a standard that exceeds code rather than meets it.

  • • Built on your lot, permits handled before ground is broken
  • • Eco-conscious materials and energy-efficient building practices
  • • Six phases, each costed up front so you know where the budget goes
  • • Works as a rental suite, in-law suite, or a downsizing home

Custom Decks

Custom Deck Work

New builds, repairs and upgrades. A deck should look like it belongs to the house it attaches to, and it should survive Okanagan summers and winters without going grey and splintery in three years. We will tell you straight which material is worth the money for your exposure and how you plan to use the space.

  • • New deck builds designed to match the home
  • • Repairs and upgrades to existing decks
  • • Straight guidance on materials, finishes and railings
  • • Built by the same crew that builds our homes
