Landry Homes

Your Lot. Your Floor Plan. Your Call.

Building a custom home means every decision is yours — layout, ceiling height, the way the light comes in, where the garage sits. We work through all of it with you, and we build it properly. No shortcuts, no cookie-cutter plans forced onto your lot. Just a home that was designed around how you actually live.

What’s Included

Every custom home we build covers the full scope — from the foundation up:

Why it matters in Edmonton

Building in Edmonton means building for a climate that doesn’t forgive shortcuts. Frost lines go down nearly two metres, which affects foundation depth and cost. Freeze-thaw cycles put real stress on exterior cladding, flashing, and drainage details. A home that looks fine in photos but wasn’t specced for Alberta winters will show you why within five years.

We also build for lot conditions that vary significantly across Edmonton and surrounding communities. A new lot in Windermere has different soil and drainage conditions than an infill in Glenora or an acreage in Strathcona County. We review all of that before we finalize the design.

Edmonton’s building permit process — through the City or the surrounding municipalities like Leduc, St. Albert, or Spruce Grove — has specific requirements that vary by zone. We handle permits and know what each office expects. It’s not exciting, but getting it wrong delays your build.

Our Process

01

Consultation & Lot Review

We sit down and talk through your goals, your lot, and your budget. We’ll give you an honest picture of what’s realistic before anything gets designed.
02

Design, Selections & Contract

We work through your floor plan together, lock in your finish selections, and produce a fixed-price contract with full scope. Nothing moves to permits until you’re confident in the plan.
03

Permits & Pre-Build

We submit permits, line up trades, and prepare the site. You’ll know the timeline and what’s happening at each stage.
04

Construction to Possession

We build. You get milestone updates throughout — framing, rough-ins, drywall, cabinets — and a proper walkthrough before keys change hands.

Frequently Asked Questions

No. A lot of clients come to us still evaluating land. We can help you assess whether a lot you’re looking at makes sense for the home you want to build.

It means the price in the contract is the price you pay — outside of any changes you choose to make during the build. We don’t come back later asking for more money because materials went up.

Most builds run 12 to 14 months from contract signing to possession. Simpler designs or faster permit timelines can bring that in; larger or more complex homes take longer.

Minor changes early on are manageable. After framing, changes get expensive quickly. We put a lot of time into the planning phase so changes during construction are the exception, not the rule.
