Project is not even complete, it is already hundreds of thousand over estimate. **Comment from 3rd Generation Homes:** > We’re sorry to read this review. Although this was posted some time ago, we felt it was still important to address. At 3rd Generation Homes, we place a high value on transparency, budgeting accuracy, and communication with our clients throughout every project. Building a home is as much about fostering strong relationships with our clients as it is about the craftsmanship and detail that go into the home. As this review isn’t linked to a name, we’re unable to confirm that it came from one of our clients. We always encourage our clients to reach out to us directly so we can discuss and resolve any concerns. **★★★★★ — Krista Lusted, July 2017** > The team at 3rd Generation Homes is stellar. They are professional, friendly, and most of all helpful. Plus they have the experience and knowledge to do their builds in an efficient manner, addressing any issues that might pop up along the way. We hired them for the build out of our new office in the Innovation Centre downtown Kelowna, and we couldn't be happier with the service that we've received. Highly recommended. **★★★★★ — Baths by Design, July 2017** > We have been working with 3rd Generation Homes for many years now! They have been amazing clients of our and we appreciate all the hard work that they do for us! 3rd Generation Homes has always been pleasant and appreciative of all the work that we do for them and we appreciate everything they do for us! We have worked on many projects and have done a lot of custom homes together throughout the years! They are very knowledgeable about the products that they need and they are always very diligent on their deadlines with us. The quality of craftsmanship that they supply their customers and the respect that they show their suppliers is absolutely amazing. We love working with them and we look forward to working with them well into the future! **★★★★★ — kelowna01, July 2017** > 3rd Generation Homes is an amazing team to work with. They're extremely professional, knowledgeable and easy going. I have done many projects with them over the past few years and it's always a pleasant experience. From the beginning they listen to your needs and add their expertise. Their reputation speaks for itself. They go above and beyond for their clients. I highly recommend them for building your dream home! **★★★★★ — tcbigelow, March 2015** > 3rd Generation Homes was an excellent company to work with when building our new home. This was not the first home we've built so we have a bit of experience with the process and 3rd Generation was very easy to deal with. They are professional, highly knowledgeable and extremely helpful with making decisions and planning. We were completely confident with their work and suggestions throughout the building process. They were efficient and hardworking as well as on-time and on budget. We were also VERY impressed with the trades they hire. You can expect quality, dependable work. **★★★★★ — yjtgat, June 2014** > I am in the construction industry and have worked with countless builders, and 3rd Generation Homes was an easy choice for my wife and I when it came time to build our custom lakeview spec home. We had a specific vision of what we wanted, and Gerald and Cassidy of 3rd Generation Homes, took this vision and seamlessly made it a reality. Gerald's quiet, confident style was a perfect match for us and he made many great suggestions along the way that were logical, cost effective, and just right. We get many compliments on the home from designers and other builders, which is sure reaffirming after a project of this magnitude. I will use Gerald and his team again on our next venture. **★★★★★ — iantomlin, Sept. 2013** > 3rd Generation Homes worked with us to build our new home. The construction was on time and on budget and the suggestions and expertise were second to none. Gerald made it easy to negotiate the build process and allowed us teh flexibility to be as involved as we wanted to be while controlling the process and keepimng everything running smoothly. When we build again we would not do it with anyone else. **★★★★★ — Paul Farina, Sept. 2013** > My wife and I refer to Gerald (Owner of 3rd Generation Homes) as the "Master Builder." From concept to completion he truly is the Master Builder. Quality workmanship in a timely manner was what Gerald delivered for our family when he built our home. We would highly recommend his services to anyone. ## Selected projects - [Shorerise Showhome](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/shorerise-showhome-pj-vj~7763332) - Location: West Kelowna, BC - Photos: 53 - [Sailview Bay](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/sailview-bay-pj-vj~7703645) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 36 - [Talon Lane](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/talon-lane-pj-vj~7702177) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 38 - [Canvas at McKinley Beach, Lot 10](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/canvas-at-mckinley-beach-lot-10-pj-vj~7702163) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 24 - [Canvas at McKinley Beach, Lot 8](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/canvas-at-mckinley-beach-lot-8-pj-vj~7702159) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 29 - [Wild Rose Road](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/wild-rose-road-pj-vj~7002685) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 31 - [Hall Road Renovation](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/hall-road-renovation-pj-vj~7702173) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 21 - [Canvas at McKinley Beach, Lot 6](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/canvas-at-mckinley-beach-lot-6-pj-vj~6792380) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 26 - [Canvas at McKinley Beach, Lot 7](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/canvas-at-mckinley-beach-lot-7-pj-vj~7175365) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 20 - [Kaleden Renovation](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/kaleden-renovation-pj-vj~7027393) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 18 - [Harvard Road](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/harvard-road-pj-vj~6792363) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 25 - [Lot 28 Boxwood Road](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/lot-28-boxwood-road-pj-vj~6321010) - Location: Kelowna, BC - Photos: 36 - [Lot 25 Boxwood Road](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/lot-25-boxwood-road-pj-vj~6343020) - Location: Kelowna, BC - Photos: 34 - [Lot 25 Chocolate Lily Lane](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/lot-25-chocolate-lily-lane-pj-vj~6320935) - Location: Kelowna, BC - Photos: 30 - [Lot 6 Acacia Lane](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/lot-6-acacia-lane-pj-vj~6025734) - Location: Kelowna, BC - Photos: 24 - [Hall Road](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/hall-road-pj-vj~6025562) - Location: Kelowna, BC - Photos: 25 - [Lot 26 Chocolate Lily Lane](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/lot-26-chocolate-lily-lane-pj-vj~6320872) - Location: Kelowna, BC - Photos: 19 - [Lot 8 Mountainside Court](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/lot-8-mountainside-court-pj-vj~5601682) - Location: Kelowna, BC - Photos: 24 - [Lot 4 Mountainside Drive](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/lot-4-mountainside-drive-pj-vj~1362875) - Location: Kelowna, BC - Photos: 42 - Description: This home has a variety of finishes used on the exterior.

Thank you! A: Hi there! I do apologize - we didn't have our project information online when we built this home, and don't have the colour information available. **Q: What colour are the black cabinets?** *(in Photo Questions)* Is it a standard colour from the manufacturer or is it a custom colour match? A: Hey there! The black cabinets are painted Benjamin Moore Ebony King 2132-20. **Q: fridge and freezer brand?** *(in Photo Questions)* Would love to know what brand these fridges are! Are they fingerprint proof? A: These are the Frigidaire Pro All Fridge and All Freezer. They are 'Smudge-Proof' stainless steel, so they are fingerprint resistant. **Q: Love the wood floors, will you please tell me what they are?** *(in Photo Questions)* A: So sorry we missed your question! This flooring was actually a wood tile, unfortunately it was discontinued quite some time ago. Ames and Casa Roma both have nice wood tiles that we have used before! **Q: What is the name of the granite countertop in this photo** *(in Photo Questions)* A: It's quartz from Cambria called Praa Sands. **Q: Love the mirror** *(in Photo Questions)* Hi, can you tell me where the mirror is from? Thank you! A: This was a great find from Home Sense. --- *Source: Houzz professional profile. Reflects the profile as of 2026-09-11.*
