Melanson Homes & Renovations Receives 2026 Consumer Choice Award for Custom Home Building in Southern Alberta

CALGARY, ALBERTA, CANADA, October 21, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Consumer Choice Award is proud to announce that Melanson Homes & Renovations has been named the 2026 Consumer Choice Award winner in the Custom Home Builder category for Southern Alberta. The recognition celebrates a Calgary builder and renovator.

Whether building a custom residence from the ground up or transforming an existing property, Melanson Homes approaches each project as a collaboration. The company’s philosophy, “Together We Build Better,” is reflected in a process designed to understand how homeowners live, what they value and what they want their home to become before construction begins.

“Receiving the Consumer Choice Award is an incredible honour for our entire team,” said Jeff Melanson, CEO of Melanson Homes & Renovations. “A custom home is deeply personal, and we believe the best results come when homeowners feel like true partners in the process. Our job is not only to build something beautiful, but to listen carefully, communicate clearly and guide our clients through each decision so the finished home genuinely works for the way they live.”

That emphasis on preparation can be seen throughout Melanson’s building and renovation process. Clients begin by discussing their goals, wish list and budget with the team before moving into design. In-house design expertise, detailed plans and 3D renderings allow homeowners to visualize spaces and make decisions before construction, when changes are easier to evaluate and manage.

For renovation projects, Melanson also brings its professional trades into the planning stage through what it calls a Trade Knowledge Day. Trades visit the property before final pricing, giving them an opportunity to assess conditions firsthand rather than relying solely on drawings. That information is incorporated into a detailed project estimate, helping establish the scope and costs before construction gets underway.

The same attention to detail extends across the company’s custom home work. Melanson builds inner-city homes and acreages throughout Calgary and surrounding communities, with designs shaped around the homeowner rather than a predetermined floor plan. Its team guides clients through location and lot considerations, architectural design, interior selections and construction as part of a coordinated process.

For homeowners who already love where they live, the company also completes whole-home renovations, additions, kitchens, basement developments and secondary suites. These projects allow clients to adapt an existing home as their lifestyle changes while preserving the neighbourhood, property or features that made them choose it in the first place.

Melanson’s work has earned recognition across numerous project types, including BILD Alberta awards for a kitchen renovation, garden/secondary suite and single-family home, along with previous BILD Calgary Region awards and finalist honours for renovations and new homes.

For Melanson Homes & Renovations, however, every project begins before the first wall comes down or the foundation is poured. By prioritizing design, planning and communication from the outset, will cost and how they will get there.

The 2026 Consumer Choice Award recognizes that approach and a Southern Alberta builder focused not simply on delivering a finished home, but on creating a better experience from the first conversation through the final walkthrough.
