We’re green. Like, really green. Sustainability is one of our core values, and is something our team is passionate about.

  • Our homes are unparalleled in efficiency, from structural to energy.
  • We have our own wood allocation license. Nearly impossible to get, this ensures we get the best product at the best price, and we can pass those benefits on to you.
  • Our harvesting process leaves nothing to waste. We use the spruce from the boreal forest right outside our doors, and import the best quality fir and cedar where needed.
  • We have a lifetime of experience in all aspects of building. There’s no obstacle we haven’t seen, no challenge we won’t predict.

A Team You Can Trust

Building a home can be hard, but we make it easy. With nearly three decades of experience in the building industry, we have the knowledge, expertise, and specialized equipment needed to turn your dream into reality. From energy efficient construction to timber frame and log building, we’ve done it all. Our team takes great pride in delivering a final product that is more than a home, it’s a piece of art. All Lakeland homes are masterpieces. Lakeland has assembled a team of artisans and craftspeople that build log homes worth dreaming about.

Building, creating, teaching, and art. We are honoured to provide the most important thing in peoples’ lives: their home.

Lakeland Homes, From the Land

From our people to our products, we are who we are because of where we are.
A little more about our land and our people.

Land

Centrally located in the boreal forests of Northern Saskatchewan, we are surrounded by sky-reaching trees. This region is known for its towering white spruce, which means Lakeland has our own supply of the best building logs in the province, and in the world. These trees are perfect for building, short growing seasons strengthening the tight rings that enrich the aesthetic as well as structural integrity. We also keep a great supply of pine, cedar, and fir, and choose the wood that’s right for your project. Surrounded by lakes and forests, walking with bear, moose and deer, Lakeland’s location is truly where work is a natural state of mind.

People

Lakeland employs locals. Our team lives nestled in this same forest that provides for us, and the talent pool is as deep as ancient tree roots. We work with surrounding Indigenous populations to build a diverse workforce. This team of artisans and builders, project managers and administration is dedicated, passionate, and unique. Our founder, Peter, takes great pride in teaching employees the art of the trade. Each skill is learned over hours, days, years, and perfected over a lifetime. There is nothing more gratifying than seeing our team grow and flourish, both at Lakeland and beyond.
