We don't run one process for every client.
An Airbnb owner cares about turnover speed. A property manager cares about consolidated billing. A commercial client cares about uptime. A custom homeowner cares about the carpenter still being there in 8 years. Pick yours.

Common questions.
Do you work with seasonal cottage owners who live out of town?+
Constantly. Most of our waterfront clients are not on site during the build, so every project comes with a portal showing progress photos, schedule, documents, and a direct message thread.
Do you take on year-round family homes as well as cottages?+
Yes. Additions, gut renovations, garages, and exterior work on full-time homes are a large part of our year, especially in Huntsville and Bracebridge.
Can you work with a designer or architect I have already hired?+
Yes, and we prefer being brought in early. We will review the drawings for buildability and Muskoka site conditions before pricing.
Do you handle commercial or rental properties?+
We take on small commercial and short-term rental work where it fits our trades. Ask us and we will be straight about whether we are the right crew.
