Effect Home Builders Ltd

In growing my own construction business, I reached out to Effect Home Builders for advice through one of our mutual relationships. One of the owners took time to share their experiences and provided me with some very helpful insights. This support was very much appreciated. It was obvious they take pride in their work and go the extra mile to help others, which is likely a reason for their long term success. I will be reaching out again to them for further great tidbits of advice!

I recently worked with Effect Home Builders and found that they live up to their exceptional reputation. They answered all my questions, accommodated my schedule and were enjoyable to work with. I was aware that they build net zero homes in Edmonton, and was further inspired by the quality and efficiency of their innovative office that generates its heat and electricity on site while being disconnected from the electric grid. They are a forward thinking team.

I worked with Effect Home Builders as part of my MBA internship. It was an excellent experience. They allowed me to further develop my business analysis and market analysis skills. Working closely with Les and the other owners, I immediately felt a part of the team. They listened carefully to my recommendations and incorporated many of them into their business. I think their biggest strength is the great work culture!

We have found Effect Home Builders to be excellent to work with.

We work with them on custom projects where attention to detail is very important and Effect Homes delivers!

Their job sites are safe and clean for their sub trades and their site supervisors are always able to provide the relevant information when it is required which results in a job getting done right the first time!

Everyone we interact with is polite, respectful and care about providing quality end results for the client.

We are very grateful to be working with Effect Home Builders!

I am a former employee of Effect Home Builders and would like to share that they are an exceptional team to work with. During my time with the company I was able to grow my carpentry skills and contribute to some very unique projects. What makes the team so great is that everyone cares, works hard... And has fun doing it. I really enjoyed working with all these beauties. Thank you for the excellent experience!

We first contacted Effect Home Builders more than 10 years ago to build our home. We brought them a custom design based around insulated concrete forms and they enthusiastically took on the project, even though it was an in-fill. We approached them again when we decided to replace our garage. They worked with us collaboratively from start to finish on both projects, including the installation of a solar array on the garage. The house is engergy efficient and we're enjoying the change in our utility costs. More than that, the finished look of both buildings is wonderful. Thank you, Effect, for all the hard work and attention to detail.

I had the pleasure of working with both Les and Sydney on rebranding and redesigning their website. I was consistently impressed by their innovative ideas and vision for their business. Their communication and consistency in meeting deadlines made them a dream to work with. We had a wonderful time collaborating with Effect Home Builders and look forward to seeing their business flourish as they continue to offer personalized, custom homes for their clients!

We used Effect to complete a significant exterior renovation of our home. Our experience was very good. The work was excellent and the results were all we could have hoped for. More importantly the people were great. The crews were incredibly professional, friendly and a pleasure to have around. Would definitely recommend them to friends.

We had a positive experience working with Effect Home Builders. They designed and built our duplex in a mature Edmonton neighborhood. Their creative design included entrances that face different directions so it does not look like a duplex and enhanced the curb appeal. The building is extremely well insulated and air tight which makes it quiet, comfortable and very energy efficient. Another element of the build that we liked is that it included solar modules which generate energy every time the sun shines. We were proud when our project received a Built Green Platinum rating, which is the highest level in the program. We enjoyed their collaborative approach and would absolutely work with them again.

I have seen the quality of their work and attention to detail that they put in their homes and the values they live by. I have also seen what a positive relationship they have with their homeowners from a homeowner they were working with in the Belgravia area.

I have consulted with them on more than one occasion and they were extremely helpful to talk to an incredibly responsive. Most recently, they helped set up my installation of a metal roof in preparation for solar panels for my own home by referring me directly to their primary subcontractor.

Very genuine and easy to work with.

My company, Little Red Truck Woodwork, has shared mutual clients with Effect Home Builders. While working for the same homeowners, I observed Effect's commitment to exceptional build quality, attention to detail, all while doing so with a personal touch through the delivery of the new home build. I also witnessed a strong, healthy relationship between the homeowner and the builder; this is very refreshing to see, and is a reflection of strong ethics and ownership of a job well done. From my experience, Effect Home Builders is an excellent company to work with, worthy of your trust and business.

Effect Home Builders is a very reliable and responsible builder. They built our beautiful home from scratch two and a half years ago, and up till today they still care about our home a lot. The most important aspect of Effect Home is that all three owners contribute equally to the success of our house. Dale was responsible in the design phase while Les did the budget. Dave was instrumental in overseeing the successful completion of the house. We should also mention the warranty manager, Will, for his tireless effect in satisfying all our extreme demands after we moved in even until now. In the past, we had used many contractors in renovating many houses. None of them were able to approach the standards set by Effect Home. We couldn’t be happier with their great workmanship and continuing high-quality service.

Effect Home Builders is a rebrand of Delight Builders. It would appear that it is a rebrand from one company to another due to the first company sinking as a result of horrible workmanship, warranty disputes and total disregard for the consumer.

Take note the majority of the 5 star reviews are the sole review of the user, and/or other reviews are all 5 star towards the same thing. It would appear that these 5 star reviews are paid for.

Do not ever buy a home built by them, nor use them for any project. They will maximize their profit and leave you footing the bill for the shoddy construction.

Our experience with Effect has been exceptional. They are a well run company that genuinely cares about what they do. Their skilled team are good communicators, easy to work with and produce beautiful, energy efficient homes. Highly recommended!

Building a great home requires both skills and passion. Effect possesses both of these in abundance. They have been building high quality, energy efficient and net zero energy homes for years and truly care about what they do. Over the years I have witnessed how they build trust with each homeowner through listening and guiding and take extra steps to build it better. They have an impressive list of awards and hold leadership positions within the Canadian Home Builders' Association. Their reputation is stellar within the industry and with homeowners. An excellent example of a Holmes Approved Builder!

We worked with Effect Homes to provide an estimate to our future home. They have a very established and open process for the entire build. We only got through the initial "estimate" phase, however even that small interaction was very professional. Communications we very detailed and thorough, promised kept for response times, and the overall experience left me thinking "I trust that they would build me a high quality home on time and on budget". I highly recommend their speaking with them to build your home.

Effect Home Builders is a wonderful group of people. They listen carefully and use their experience to build beautiful, sustainable homes. We appreciate that they are excellent communicators and easy to work with. Highly recommended!

Effect Home Builders is an excellent company to work with. Organized, professional, clear communication and top notch quality. One of the best in the business!

Effect Homes is certainly one of Edmonton's premier home builders. Their workmanship and quality are top-notch and their infill designs reflect a concerted effort to build environmentally-conscious homes that are both innovative and practical, exceeding the most stringent environmental standards. I think their list of awards speaks for itself, recognizing the superb craftsmanship and attention to detail in their projects. Their passion for home building is readily apparent and it gives people the confidence to know they are in good hands when embarking on such a major undertaking like building their dream home.

As owner of Carbon Environmental Boutique, I had the pleasure of working together with Effect Home Builders. In every interaction, they make a positive impact - on the project, on the people involved, and on the environment. These are genuine, salt-of-the-earth people who care about what they do, and do it to the highest standard. I wish I could give them 10 stars!

We have been working as a supplier of high performance windows with Effect and the experience was great. The crew is friendly and very professional to work with.
Effect is an industry leader in building beautiful, energy efficient homes. Their team is organized, knowledgeable and excellent to work with. They take pride in their work and it shows!
We look forward to continue working with them on future projects.

I worked with the Effect Home Builders team to improve their workflow and project management processes. I was impressed by their dedication to excellence, collaborative spirit, and willingness to step away from tradition and embrace a Net-Zero, customer-focused, system. We will be seeing great things from Effect Home Builders over the coming years.

Effect Homes Builders and the entire team are amazing! If you want the best quality and high touch personal care every step of the way, Effect Home Builders should be your #1 choice for custom home building or major renovation projects. The depth of knowledge and experience, especially around custom, green building, and net zero, is unmatched by any other builder in Edmonton. I highly recommend you reach out to them!

Effect Home Builders was very helpful. They were very professional and listened to our priorities and preferences. They were extremely informative and straightforward when discussing our project. You can tell that their main priorities are quality in the project and client satisfaction.

Effect Home Builders Ltd were our builders of choice. They not only built us a super efficient near net zero passive solar house but they built us a custom home to suit our lifestyle. It was important to them that our needs were met. Even after seven years living in our custom built home, we are still delighted with the final product. It is exactly what we wanted. Effect Home Builders guided us through the process to make wise choices and stay on budget. They are very transparent which instilled a high level of trust. We highly recommend them. Their attention to detail and energy efficiency won them the 2015 Energy Efficiency Award for the build of our house. Need I say more!

I am excited to collaborate with Effect since they strive to provide excellent housing. For years they have excelled at producing well-built and energy-efficient homes. Now they bring this forward-thinking to the next level: homes that encourage aging-in-place. By combining my doctoral research and their craft, homeowners dreaming of their forever homes will have the opportunity to live in their homes, forever.

Effect home builders is an industry leader in net zero custom homes. Over the years they have cultivated a core team of people who truly care, and love what they do. I’ve always taken a lot of pride in working with them, and look forward to continuing our relationship.

Les from Effect Home Builders was awesome. He promptly returned my phone call and was very informative. I highly recommend this company.

Effect Home Buliders are an awesome company with a great team and top notch ownership. They are professional and extremely honest people with big hearts and vision. I highly recommend using this company for all your home building needs.

Effect is a great company to deal with with awesome owners. Not only are they nice and honest people but skilled at their craft. Highly recommend!
