Why Homeowners Choose B&Y
A custom home built wrong costs more than money.
Most custom home stress comes from the same place: too many parties, too little ownership. Decisions get delayed, scopes drift, and the homeowner ends up managing the build themselves. We built our process to prevent all of that — not patch it after.
One crew. Total ownership.
No juggling separate contractors. One licensed in-house team takes full responsibility from breaking ground to final walkthrough.
Scope locked before ground breaks.
You see the full plan, approve the scope, and agree on pricing before a single shovel moves. No drift. No hidden costs.
Licensed, insured, WSIB covered.
Every person on your build is part of our team — not a last-minute fill-in. Full credentials, full accountability.
Real timelines. Daily updates.
You get a milestone schedule upfront and consistent communication throughout — so you always know exactly where your build stands.

For buyers who want their home built right — not just built fast.
What's Included
Every phase of your build. One accountable team.
A custom home is not one project — it is a sequence of decisions, trades, and milestones that all have to connect cleanly. We manage the full picture so nothing falls between the cracks and you are never left piecing it together yourself.
From concept through keys — we own it.

Custom Home FAQ
Questions most buyers ask before they build.
These are the questions we hear most often before a first conversation. If something specific is not covered here, the quote call is the right place to ask — no pressure, no pitch.
Have a question that isn't here?
Every custom home is different. If you have a specific question about your lot, your timeline, your budget range, or how the process works — the first conversation is the right place to get real answers.
Start Your Custom HomeHow much does a custom home build cost in the GTA?
Custom home costs in the GTA vary based on lot size, square footage, design complexity, and finish level. Most builds start well above $500,000 depending on scope. The most useful number comes from a detailed scoped conversation — not a generic range — because two homes of the same size can differ dramatically based on finishes, structural choices, and site conditions.
How long does a custom home build take from start to finish?
A custom home build in the GTA typically takes 12 to 18 months from permit approval through final walkthrough, depending on size, complexity, and material lead times. Every B&Y project is delivered with a milestone-based schedule before work begins — so you always know what stage the build is at and what comes next.
Do I need architectural drawings before contacting B&Y?
No. Most clients come to us with a vision and a site — not a finished set of drawings. The first conversation is about your goals, your lifestyle, and what a realistic build looks like for your situation. Design direction and documentation develop from there. You do not need to have everything figured out to get started.
Does B&Y use subcontractors, or is everyone in-house?
B&Y uses an in-house licensed crew for custom home builds. One team owns the full project — from pre-construction and framing through mechanical, finishes, and final handover. You are not managing a rotating cast of subcontractors hired per trade. That is deliberate — it is how accountability stays intact across a build this complex.
How do permits and approvals work for a custom home in Ontario?
Building permits for custom homes in Ontario are submitted to the local municipality and reviewed against the Ontario Building Code. B&Y manages the permit application, coordination with the municipality, and inspection scheduling on your behalf — so you are not navigating that process alone. Permits are factored into the project timeline from the start.
What happens if something unexpected comes up during the build?
Unexpected site or structural conditions are communicated immediately and clearly. B&Y outlines what was found, what the options are, and what the impact on scope or cost would be — before anything changes. Nothing moves forward without your explicit approval. Surprises get managed openly, not buried in a bill at the end.
