MASTERING COMPLEX MOUNTAIN TERRAIN

We own the heavy machinery required to conquer the East Kootenays.

Building a luxury custom home in the mountains requires more than standard framing skills. It demands serious earth moving capability. Because DCB Construction owns and operates a dedicated fleet of heavy excavators and site prep equipment, we never have to wait on rental companies. Whether we are carving a driveway into a steep Fernie mountainside, managing complex drainage in Kimberley, or pouring a massive acreage foundation right here in the South Country, our in house team handles the toughest terrain safely and efficiently.

Zero Rental Delays

Your project starts exactly when we say it will because the heavy machinery is already sitting in our Jaffray yard ready to deploy.

Transparent Budgeting

We control the excavation costs from day one, meaning far fewer financial surprises when we inevitably hit solid mountain rock.

Flawless Foundations

A custom acreage is only as strong as the ground it sits on. We engineer rock solid bases that integrate your new build perfectly into the natural landscape.

DCB Construction completed a 700 sqft addition to our cabin. It was not an easy job and required a lot of “outside the box thinking”. Supporting the original structure while the work was going on was a job in itself. Quinton was able to re-design the ceiling for us, making the way it tied into the old cabin beautiful. Having Quinton on the job put my mind at ease, I knew we were in good hands. Thanks DCB Construction for helping us achieve our cabin dream.

Very hard working crew with great work ethic. On time and on budget. I fully recommend this team.

COMMONLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Everything you need to know about building with DCB Construction in the East Kootenays.

How long does it take to build a custom mountain home?

Every acreage and timber frame project is unique, but a standard luxury build in the Kootenays typically takes twelve to eighteen months from dirt to keys. Because we own our own heavy excavation equipment, we bypass the usual rental delays and get your foundation poured much faster than standard contractors.

Absolutely. As a BC Housing Licensed Builder partnered with Pacific Home Warranty, your investment is protected by comprehensive coverage. This includes a one year materials and labour warranty, a two year mechanical systems warranty, a five year building envelope warranty, and a ten year structural defect warranty.

Complex mountain terrain is our exact specialty. We own a dedicated fleet of heavy yellow iron, including large tracked excavators, specifically to conquer steep grades and rocky earth. We will safely carve your access road, level the foundation pad, and manage all the complex mountain drainage.

Not at all. Whether you have fully engineered architectural drawings ready to submit for permits, or you just have a rough vision of an off grid cabin sketched on a notepad, we can step in. We collaborate closely with you during the planning phase to ensure your design perfectly fits your raw land.
