Thinking About Building a New Home? Your Early Questions Answered

Building a brand new home is one of the biggest decisions you and your family will make in your lifetime. Finding your land, designing a floor plan, and picking out your finishings (among several other things!) is exciting - but can be a little intimidating as well.  We've rounded up a list of the most asked questions we get from those thinking about building their very own dream home.

What price range do you build?

Timber Block homes are constructed utilizing our patented, system building process that results in a high quality, highly energy efficient home. The walls are assembled in hours, the home can be delivered anywhere in the world, and are highly recommended from some of the top builders.

How many homes has your company designed and manufactured over the years? 

Timber Block is backed by over 40 years of construction history, leading up to the construction of hundreds of homes in Canada, the United States - and because of our efficient flat stacking process - beyond.

What in your business’s philosophy makes you stand out from others in the industry?

Timber Block is very well-known for not just "keeping up" with industry standards, but going above and beyond. For example: When R-30 wall insulation became almost mandatory in many areas, we developed an R-36 insulated wall. We've also introduced a 15-Year Finish Warranty, and a Construction Concierge Service that takes our customer service to another level.

What achievements or awards has your company made?

Our company has been the recipient of several awards over the years, including 3 NAHB Jerry Rouleau Awards of Excellence, the NAHB Global Innovation Award, Domus Award and more.

Do you build only from your stock plans, or can I customize, or even start from scratch?

Timber Block offers several sizes and styles of homes in 4 series: Classic, Contemporary, Craftsman and Vintage. However, we have had homeowners build a hybrid, mixing in classic and contemporary, or making changes here and there to blend styles together. The majority of our clients do customize their plan is some way, and we can design right from scratch - building from your dreams and ideas.

Do I get to be involved in the construction process? 

100%. From the time you are in contact with a Timber Block Home Consultant, to the design process, construction and building process, wall raising, move-in and beyond, we are with you every step of the way.

Do you have any inspection programs set?

Absolutely, and just recently, Timber Block integrated the 3-part Mike Holmes Inspection Program, which will be included in every single manufactured Timber Block home.

Can you help with other decisions I may not know about such as the best land to choose, loans or builders?

Timber Block has a long list of preferred builders, and will always be able to help guide you in the right direction. The construction loan process may be more simple than many may think! For land selection, each of our clients gets their own Project Manager as part of the Construction Concierge Service, which will also help point out certain aspects you may want to consider when purchasing land.
