Your customers don’t want to hear excuses—they want move-in dates. When you’re juggling timelines, labour shortages, and weather delays, you need a partner who can help you meet deadlines and keep your clients happy.
At Winton Homes, based in Prince George, BC, we specialize in prefabricated homes, cottages, and structural building components that help contractors and developers across Western Canada build faster, smarter, and with less stress.
Since 1972, we've been perfecting the art of kit homes and prefab building solutions designed specifically for Canada's unique climate and construction challenges.
Here’s why working with Winton Homes just makes sense for your business:
1. Save Time and Stay on Schedule
Whether you’re short on skilled labour or facing a weather delay, Winton can help reduce time on-site. Our panelized walls, floor systems, and trusses are delivered ready to install, eliminating time-consuming site construction.
By partnering with us, you can shave weeks off your build time and reach lock-up faster—up to 80% of the work can be completed with our packaged solution.
2. Fewer Workers, More Efficiency
Our building components are engineered for ease of assembly. From carefully planned deliveries (packed in reverse build order) to expert project managers ready to guide you, every detail is designed to reduce onsite labour requirements. Smaller crews can accomplish more, and you can take on more projects without adding overhead.
3. Increase Job Site Safety
Shorter builds and reduced manual labour mean fewer chances for injuries. Our efficient systems are designed to cut down on strenuous, repetitive tasks—keeping your crew safer and your liability lower.
4. Custom Solutions for Every Project
We don’t just offer stock plans. Winton’s design team works with contractors to create custom framing packages for everything from residential homes and cabins to multi-unit apartments and commercial buildings.
Need only our award-winning engineered trusses? We’ve got you covered.
5. Factory Precision and Quality Control
Every component is manufactured inside our 49,000 sq. ft. climate-controlled facility using state-of-the-art equipment, including laser-guided saws. You get consistent, high-quality workmanship without the risks that come from building in unpredictable outdoor conditions.
6. Premium-Grade Materials
We use select-grade lumber, plywood sheathing (not OSB), and high-performance windows in every package. Our materials are chosen for their strength, resilience, and reliability—ensuring that your builds stand the test of time and deliver exceptional value to your clients.
7. Lower Material Costs
Stick framing is expensive. In fact, studies from the Structural Building Components Association (SBCA) show that site-built homes use up to 25% more lumber than prefab structures. Less waste means more profit.
8. Budget Certainty
Our quotes are reliable and fixed upfront—you won’t be surprised by fluctuating material costs. With Winton, you can accurately budget your projects and deliver consistent pricing to your clients.
9. Reduce Waste and Clean-Up
Traditional construction methods generate unnecessary job site waste. According to SBCA, stick-built framing can produce up to 30 times more waste than prefabricated builds. With Winton, you only receive what you need—reducing cleanup, disposal costs, and your project’s environmental impact.
10. Future-Forward Building
Prefab construction is the future of homebuilding. Whether you're interested in reducing build time, increasing margins, or expanding your project portfolio, Winton gives you the tools to succeed. Our systems are designed to help contractors adapt to industry changes while exceeding customer expectations.
