Step 1 · Your Budget Estimate

Build your home on screen. Watch the number update.

Adjust the options to match your vision. Your price guide updates live — no email needed to see it. Built from real local contractor pricing; a starting point, not a quote.

Total above-grade living space across all floors, in sq ft. Don't include the basement — that's set by your foundation choice below.

Overall level for flooring, trim, doors, and paint. Kitchen and bathrooms are set separately below.

A simple rectangle is most efficient. More corners, wings, and rooflines add cost.

Choose one, or combine a main siding with accents — e.g. vinyl with stone or brick accenting.

Why this matters now

What happens if you don't take action now?

Most custom home projects go sideways long before a shovel hits the ground — and it almost always traces back to a decision made, or skipped, at the very start. Here's the difference between how it's usually done and how we do it.

The old way

how it usually goes
Budget creepThe builder's quote comes back tens of thousands over the number in your head.
Guesswork estimatesA different number from every contractor — nothing you can actually compare.
Decision fatigueHundreds of choices with no framework, so you freeze — or say yes to everything.
Timeline driftThe build runs months past the promised date — and every extra month costs you.
Loads of permitsA pile of permits and bylaws to decode and chase down on your own.
A plan you're stuck withA layout that fights the site — and it's expensive to change once it's approved.

Recent work

Homes we've helped bring from sketch to reality.

A few recent Innova projects — custom homes, additions, and renovations across the region.

Why Innova

Design is the cheapest place to change your mind.

Every change is easy on paper and expensive in framing. Our job is to catch the budget-breakers and bylaw conflicts while they're still just lines on a page — so your build is the boring part.

Code review before design

We check the rules first, so you never design a home you can't get approved.

Full construction documents

Detailed, buildable drawings — the kind that get you accurate, comparable quotes.

Permitting managed for you

We submit and coordinate with the municipality, so you're not chasing paperwork.

★★★★★
"Alexander's deep knowledge of building codes and construction best practices gave us total confidence in the plans we were developing. They were incredibly thorough — their attention to detail revealed that our contractor didn't have the level of experience he had claimed, something we may not have discovered until it was too late. Their diligence likely saved us from major issues down the road."
