Custom Home Builders in North York, ON

The 106 custom home builders on this page work in a Toronto market first, because North York is a community within the City of Toronto. A homeowner here is usually weighing a rebuild on an established lot rather than a purchase in a new subdivision, and the work on offer reflects that. Most of the busier firms also take jobs in Mississauga, Etobicoke, Oakville, Vaughan, Markham and Richmond Hill, so a North York address does not limit where a builder will go.

Design and build under one contract is the common shape of the work. Aria Build is a family-owned custom home builder in North York that serves Toronto, East York, Leaside, Etobicoke, Mississauga and Oakville, with an in-house architectural and interior design team that carries a job through permits to occupancy. Marvel Homes opens each project with a feasibility study covering the lot, zoning and budget, and handles zoning reviews and Committee of Adjustment applications when a site needs them. KingsGate Luxury Homes coordinates zoning and approvals early in a permit-ready design-build process.

Rebuilding on an existing lot is a clear part of the local market. Xavieras Custom Homes, Grand Design Build, Eurodale Design + Build and METROHOMES all take on teardown and infill work. Vaughan Build Ltd. builds new custom homes and restorations in Toronto's established neighbourhoods, among them Rosedale, Forest Hill, Lawrence Park, Summerhill and Moore Park. For owners who already hold the land, Xavieras Custom Homes, Grand Design Build and Built By Pros Inc. build on a client's own lot.

Energy performance gets real attention among the builders here. Quasar Homes specializes in Net Zero homes, blending technology with eco-friendly design. MBC Homes offers energy-efficient and Net-Zero options, and Marvel Homes builds energy-efficient envelopes. At the high end of the market, Xavieras Custom Homes, Royal Castles, Bianco Design & Build and Vicolo Construction all build luxury homes. Royal Castles is led by Poya Ghavidel, P.Eng., and every project starts with an engineer first review.
