this competitive industry.” Another factor that’s contributed to the company’s ongoing success, Darcy believes, is their willingness to innovative and to adopt new materials and technologies. For example, they recently partnered with BarrierTek, a supplier of advanced fire resistant wood products. “For decades, the Okanagan Valley has been concerned with wildfires each year due to a combination of environmental and climatic factors,” Darcy says. “Just this year, we were devastated by a wildfire in West Kelowna that unfortunately was able to jump the lake into Kelowna and Lake Country. “With so many people affected by this devastation, we needed to find a solution that started with the construction of a home. Now, we have partnered with BarrierTek to offer clients the option to build their home with fire resistant lumber. We are building our first home with this product in West Kelowna. You will soon be able to see it from Okanagan Lake – it will be the bright green house in early 2024!” “We welcome anyone who is considering building a home in the Okanagan to reach out to us and ask us about the product and how we can incorporate the benefits into their new home project.” FEBRUARY 2024
