Their commitment to excellence and proffesionalism allows us to provide the best workmanship possible. **★★★★★ — glengoertzen, Sept. 2013** > I have fallowed Echo Ridge Homes for several years now. I was looking for a builder that took pride in there projects In my opinion they are well qualified to build everything from high end homes to revenue properties. Merle ( the manager) is very easy to work with and always makes time to discuss the building process thoroughly at any phase of the project. In our case Echo Ridge Homes built a triplex rental property. It is just completed and we are showing it to prospective property management companies. Without exception, they all comment on the quality of the finished product. This quality of finish always shows well, for that reason we have been able to negotiate a lower rate with management companies and, I believe attract a higher caliber of renter. > Merle understands what his customer wants and delivers. He is an excellent listener and great at explaining the details of the building process. **★★★★★ — dshankland, Sept. 2013** > I have worked with Echo Ridge homes on a number of occacions, providing various exterior subcontract work. > > Echo Ridge is a reputable builder, with a very high standard for craftsmanship, work quality and customer satisfaction. They deal with their subtrades in a very fair and equitable manner. Payment for services rendered has always been prompt and always within the terms of the agreement. > > They have worked well to reach acceptable resolution on projects where scope and terms of services have changed midstream due to customer requests, material supply issues and other matters that come up on any construction project. They are a very fair company to work with and strive to have satisfied subtrades and customers. > > Their work sites are orderly, with particular attention being paid to matters of safety for workers, and those in surroundings that may be affected by their work projects. > > Customers can feel very comfortable with hiring Echo Ridge Homes for their construction projects and subtrades rest assured they will have a good working relationship with this builder. ## Selected projects - [Red Deer River Cabin](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/red-deer-river-cabin-pj-vj~312645) - Location: Red Deer, AB - Photos: 17 - [Graydon](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/graydon-pj-vj~5962839) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 31 - [Massey Residence](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/massey-residence-pj-vj~1169286) - Location: Stettler, AB - Photos: 49 - [Boulton](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/boulton-pj-vj~310391) - Location: Red Deer, AB - Photos: 32 - Description: A house designed to fit the lot and lifestyle of the Boultons.

Does it get in the way of toilet/shower usage? A: Actually It doesn't. I doesn't extend forward past the tank. It adds valuable storage space in a compact bathroom. We call it a Johnny cabinet. --- *Source: Houzz professional profile. Reflects the profile as of 2026-09-22.*
