We have been working with Gilbert + Burke over the last 3 years on the design and construction of our new home on Lake Simcoe. I think one of the most remarkable things is that as the project draws to a close, we will be sorry to say goodbye to the Team. We have very much enjoyed working with this team, even when the inevitable bumps in the road happened. We have never doubted that they had our best interest at heart, and knew they were working to give us the very best home they could within the budget. We love our new home and we have lots of good memories of working through the project. Thank you Gilbert + Burke for making our family dream a reality.

Over the past few years I have had the pleasure of working alongside Gilbert + Burke on various projects. Gilbert + Burke's team is truly professional from the bid stage, down to the final completion. Questions are answered promptly, coordination between trades is spot on , communication through out the project is excellent, and the staff is always very friendly and happy to help however they may be needed.

Loretto, ON
The Gilbert + Burke is a team of truly talented individuals committed to the project for close to a full year. We encountered crumbling lathe and plaster, a bat colony in the attic and a tow-foot-high crawl space under the house. With each setback, Gilbert + Burke dug in their heels and found often ingenious solutions that spoke to their decades of experience and depth of character. The challenges were many but we really felt that Gilbert + Burke were as truly invested in our project as we were.

Baltimore, ON
Gilbert and Burke completed our cottage on Peninsula Lake in Huntsville in 2019. Their team lead by Brian Gilbert was outstanding. From permits to finishing touches, we were guided throughout the process. Our site super intendant took every detail of the cottage personally and was as proud of the results as we were. Their design team took great care to ensure that the cottage match our personalities and goals. Nothing was ever “cookie cutter”. Everything was designed to our thoughts and dreams. The team was flexible and communicated very effectively throughout the build. We do not hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking to build, renovate or fix.
B.J. and D.J.
Peninsula Lake
Having worked with Gilbert + Burke in the past, we knew that there was nobody else that we trusted in completing our dream. On this project, we tasked them with a tight deadline for completion and even with some setbacks in permits, they were able to deliver. Everybody that was associated with this project was so professional and committed to the end goal. The final result was more than a kitchen or a place to retire, but a warm and inviting place for friends and family to gather for many years to come.

Sturgeon Lake, ON
Gilbert + Burke have a professional approach through the entire project process from the first client meeting, to the preparation of a project budget, to establishing a build time-frame, and most importantly their commitment to organization and client communication, made all aspects of the build and enjoyable and rewarding experience. From the start through construction completion, delivery and deficiency resolution, Gilbert + Burke have proven that they are the ones who deliver your dream on time and on budget.

We really appreciated the prompt, friendly service. Brian Gilbert is an excellent representative and his integrity to get the job done at the cost and time projected is of great value. It was a pleasure doing business with Gilbert + Burke and I would highly recommend them to others.

I have built three houses in the past and have worked with many contractors and sub contractors and this was the first time ever that I had one show up on time, do quality work, and within estimate. 3 out of 3, in my opinion.

Custom Home FAQ’s

What is meant by a “custom home”?

Custom refers to the fact that a client designs both the interior and the exterior, with our expert assistance of course. Luxury refers to the fact that usually it is complete with high-end finishes ex. flooring, windows, fixtures, etc.

How Big Is The Typical Custom Home?

The majority of our projects are between 1500-3000 sqft of interior living space, not including a basement (which not all builds have). Some are as high as 10,000 or more. However, size doesn’t play as much of a factor as complexity of the design and scope of the project.

What Are Key Features To Include In A Home?

“Typical” features are the usual bedrooms, bathrooms, kitchen… but they are all fairly luxurious or high end. Some more unique features would be a wine fridge or a wine cellar, waterfall bathroom fixtures, theatre room, sauna, outdoor tennis court/sports court, outdoor kitchens and entertainment spaces.

What Is Gilbert + Burke’s Starting Price To Build A Custom Home In Ontario?

We don’t have a “starting” price because every project depends on the custom features you want to include. Contact us here to get your quote and pricing started!

What Should I Look For In A Good Contractor For Building My Custom Home?

You want to be aware of the “normal” contractor things like keeping promises, not cutting corners, using quality building materials, having excellent construction techniques, and more. Here at Gilbert + Burke, we bring all of this and something else to the table: relationships. We don’t view your home as another project – we view it as a way to learn to know your family and help your dream home come true!

How Fast Can Gilbert + Burke Typically Build A Custom Home?

It usually depends on the complexity of the design and the size of the build, but from start of design, through project development, to completed construction in typically 12-18 months.

Our builds are 100% customized to what our clients ask us for and are willing to pay for.
