Our Expertise

Kamloops Home Builders has many years of experience in the Kamloops area, which allows us to successfully complete any complex home construction project. Our customers have relied on our expertise to build a new home or make a major addition to their existing home.

Construction is largely a sequential process. A variety of professional resources with a wide range of expertise is needed to complete a project successfully. They need to be available at the right time and be able to work together at different stages of the project. For example, when building components or manpower is not available at the jobsite when needed, it will cause delays. Kamloops Home Builders has the expertise to make the construction process go more smoothly and efficiently.

Shortcuts on material and labor will affect the outcome of the entire project. The cost to fix problems caused by the use of substandard materials or incorrect application can be substantial. Using the right materials and hiring the right expertise means a much better finished result and more value in your home.

Some of the more crucial areas where expertise is needed include:

  • Obtaining permits and approvals
  • Design and material selection
  • Structural load bearing and other engineering requirements
  • Assembling the right human resources
  • Constructing the home to meet building code standards
  • Controlling and managing the project

In the construction of custom homes and major additions, all projects have different challenges. Kamloops Home Builders understands that the key to a successful outcome is to finalize your design and select the right materials before work starts.

Working with Kamloops Home Builders gives you the confidence that your project will go smoothly.


Design and Construction Options

Kamloops Home Builders specializes in more complex structures, such as post and beam, timber-frame or log homes. These kinds of homes use different structural techniques to support the roof and floors and require foundations that are engineered to meet load bearing points.

Although these structures are more costly to build than conventional homes, you can incorporate open plan living, vaulted ceilings and large expanses of glass to maximize the use of natural light. They also generally have a much higher appraised value. We can work with your designer or architect to help you choose the right kind of design and materials to fit your requirements.

Building different types of custom homes takes special construction expertise. Kamloops Home Builders uses the best construction practices whether we are building a conventional or more sophisticated structure. This is why we recommend the use of higher quality building materials, which give you a much better finished result.
