Frequently Asked Questions
Timelines depend on design complexity, weather, and permit approvals. In general, most custom builds in the city take about 10-12 months from the ground to completion, or roughly 12-14 months including permitting and the design phase.
Costs can vary widely based on finishes and floor plans. In Edmonton, many custom homes range from $400–$500 per square foot, for high-end designs.
We handle the permitting process with the City of Edmonton, ensuring your project meets local requirements. If you already own a lot, we’ll assess it as part of the design stage. If you do not yet own a lot we can help you find the perfect one.
We encourage you to share your ideas, sketches, or design inspirations with our team. As a design-build firm, we create custom plans in-house, but we’re happy to review outside concepts and adapt them into a design that works for your home and site.
In Alberta, all new homes are protected under the province’s New Home Warranty Program, which covers key aspects such as structural components and major systems.
Our Edmonton builds include features such as triple-pane windows, hydronic heating systems, and cold-climate air-source heat pumps. These choices improve comfort in winter, lower energy use, and ensure the home is resilient against Alberta’s tough climate. We also choose exterior and interior materials with durability in mind, so your home stays efficient and reliable year after year.
Most homeowners in Edmonton finance their build with a construction mortgage, which provides funds in stages as the project advances.
Homeowners play a central role in the selection process. From flooring and cabinetry to exterior finishes, you’ll have opportunities to personalize every detail.
