The standard

We build homes — only homes. Single-family, duplex, townhome. Concrete, framing, roofing, drywall, paint, floors and finishing, every trade held to the same tolerance, so nothing gets lost in a handoff and nothing leaves site until it's square.

What we build

Residential only.
That's the whole point.

Houses are all we build, and that focus is the whole advantage. Every crew we run has spent its career inside homes — which is exactly why the details land.

From blueprint to move-in day
01

Foundation

Excavation, forms, and a 3,200 PSI pour — verified, snapped and bolted before anything rises. Square starts here.

02

Floor System

Engineered joists at 16" centres. Glued, screwed, squeak-tested subfloor — a deck you could dance on.

03

Wall Framing

Walls framed flat, squared to the millimetre, then lifted. Double headers over every opening.

04

Second Storey

Rim, joists, deck, walls — the sequence repeats, the tolerances don't loosen.

05

Roof Structure

Trusses craned, braced and blocked to the sealed layout. Flag on the ridge.

06

Roofing & Envelope

Shingles, fascia, siding and corner boards — the house gets its skin, warrantied tight against hail and chinooks.

07

Drywall, Paint & Finish

Board, tape, level-4 finish, paint, floors, casing and doors. Walkthrough with a level in hand — then keys.

Under one roof

Nine trades.
One tolerance.

All services

Every trade delivered by our own crews, checked by the same supervisor, and held to the same 90° — because a perfect frame deserves a perfect finish, and a schedule only holds when one company owns it end to end.

How it goes

Five steps, no surprises.

Full process
01

Site Visit

We walk the lot or the house, talk through what you want, and tell you honestly what it takes.

02

Quote & Schedule

A line-by-line quote within 48 hours, plus a written schedule you can plan a move around.

03

Permits & Prep

Drawings finalized, permits pulled, materials ordered and the site made ready before day one.

04

We Build

Foundation to finish with weekly photo updates and one supervisor you can text directly.

05

Walkthrough

We walk it with a level in hand, fix the list, hand over keys and a 2-year warranty.

Why homeowners stay

One contractor. Zero handoff chaos.

When the framer, drywaller and painter answer to the same supervisor, nothing falls between trades. One schedule, one quality bar, one number to call — from the first shovel to the walkthrough.

From the people who live there

Homeowners, not clients.

★★★★★

“They framed our house in the winter and still hit the date they gave us in September. Every wall is dead straight — our trim guy actually commented on it.”

Dave & Manpreet K.Custom home · Cochrane
★★★★★

“We'd been burned by a reno crew before. Having one supervisor for framing, drywall and paint meant nobody could point fingers. Site was swept every single night.”

Jennifer R.Whole-home renovation · Altadore
★★★★★

“I build six to eight homes a year and Square Art is the only trade I don't have to babysit. Passes inspection first time, every time.”
