We build custom homes and complete major renovations throughout the East Kootenay and Columbia Valley, including Golden, Radium, Invermere, and surrounding mountain communities.

Project location and site conditions are reviewed early to confirm feasibility.

Cost per square foot is one of the most common questions we receive. The honest answer is that it depends heavily on scope, site conditions, design complexity, and performance level.

In mountain construction, factors such as access, slope, snow load requirements, glazing packages, mechanical systems, and finish level significantly influence overall cost.

We focus on developing accurate budgets through design rather than relying on generalized square foot numbers. During early planning, we establish realistic cost ranges based on your specific project goals and site conditions.

Square foot pricing can be a rough reference point, but it does not replace a properly developed budget.

As early as possible.

Bringing us in during site selection or early concept planning allows for realistic budgeting, feasibility review, and alignment between design goals and construction costs. Early involvement reduces risk and avoids costly redesign later.

Getting started is simple. Reach out through our contact form or schedule a call—we’ll walk you through the next steps and answer any questions along the way.

Budgets are developed progressively during the design phase. We establish preliminary cost ranges early, refine pricing as drawings develop, and finalize scope before construction begins.

Our process prioritizes transparency and cost visibility throughout design and construction.

Project structure depends on scope and complexity. Many of our projects operate under a structured cost-plus agreement with defined scope and milestone tracking.

Final pricing is established once drawings, specifications, and trade pricing are complete.

We focus on:

• Full custom homes

• Major structural renovations

• Additions

• Performance-focused upgrades

We do not take on small cosmetic remodels or minor service work.

Performance-driven construction focuses on durability, energy efficiency, comfort, and long-term operational cost.

This includes:

• High-performance building envelopes

• Energy-efficient mechanical systems

• Airtight construction practices

• Durable material selection

• Structural design responsive to mountain climate

Performance is integrated into design from the beginning, not added later.

In many cases, yes.

If you already have architectural drawings, we can review them for feasibility, constructability, and alignment with your budget and performance goals.

Before proceeding, we evaluate:

• Structural coordination

• Envelope and energy performance

• Budget alignment

• Completeness of drawings and specifications

If revisions are required to meet performance standards or cost expectations, we address those early in pre-construction.
