Ontario Heritage Conference Edition As Heritage Builders, we consider ourselves the preservationists of our existing built heritage as well as the creators of future heritage. Whether it is restoring an existing home to its vintage roots with careful consideration for the aesthetics of the period, or designing and building a new home with a nod to traditional ideals, we utilize modern technology and materials and old fashioned "know-how" to impress with every project. Why does Build care so much about getting these details correct? Because we love your house as much as you do. We often see lovely houses, obviously owned by people who care as much as we do. We celebrate these houses on our blog www.build4u.ca/blog. To celebrate our built heritage, we dedicate this newsletter to some of our favourite heritage related projects over the past 20 years.
