Design & Construction

Custom Homes

More than a space, home is a feeling.

The truth is, anyone can make a space beautiful, but creating a feeling of home is an art. Out beyond colours and finishes, where function meets form, our unparalleled in-depth design and pre-construction planning process will ensure that when construction begins, all of the details are in order. Your home will be tailored uniquely to you, magazine-worthy, and will stand the test of time, but most importantly, we will help you create that feeling of home. When you’re home, you’ll know it.

Our Approach

The William StandenTM Process

01

Initial Consultation

Our first complimentary consultation is to review your goals for your project and to explain our process and the William Standen™ way.

02

Design & Pre-Construction Planning

Designing and pricing your dream home requires an enormous amount of attention to detail. Over 1000 decisions are made and these details need to be worked out long before construction begins to eliminate budget creep, and design mistakes. We have simplified the process so that your home will be planned and executed flawlessly.

03

Construction

Once your dream home has been thoroughly planned we move into the construction phase. You will have a dedicated customer care coordinator and project manager to walk you through the progress updates. Our projects are crafted with sustainability, the environment and your health in mind.

04

Post-Construction

At William Standen™, our commitment to excellence doesn’t end when construction is complete. We believe that a home should stand for more—lasting quality, thoughtful design, and peace of mind. That’s why we provide thorough post-construction support, ensuring every detail is finished to perfection and your space is ready to be lived in and loved. From final walkthroughs to addressing any last adjustments, we stand by our craftsmanship and are dedicated to your satisfaction.
