Custom Homes

Crafting Your Dream Home from Vision to Reality

Building Your Dream Home

At Gilbertson Fine Homes, we specialize in creating custom homes that reflect your unique lifestyle and dreams. Our Red Seal certified craftsmen bring decades of experience to every project, ensuring your home is built to the highest standards of quality and craftsmanship.

Our custom home builds come with 2-5-10 year warranty that covers new homes for a period of 2 years on labor and materials, 5 years on the building envelope (like the roof and windows), and 10 years on the structural components of the home. The warranty is attached to the home, not the owner, and covers defects related to construction, providing peace of mind for both initial buyers and future owners.
