A builder constructs new homes from the ground up. A general contractor manages the whole project: the trades, permits, budget, and timeline, whether that is a renovation or new construction. Great Horn Construction does both. Our crew is mostly Red Seal carpenters, so the people running your project are also the people building it.

In Winnipeg, a new 2,000 square foot house typically lands between $300 and $450 per square foot once land, materials, and trades are counted, and costs vary with finishes and site conditions. We price every build individually so you know your real cost before we start.

Most general contractors charge a fee of 10 to 20 percent of the total project cost, either built into a fixed quote or billed as cost plus. We keep it simple: one fixed, written quote that covers management, trades, permitting, and warranty, so there are no surprise percentages on your final bill.
