3 5756 MacDonald Road Vernon, BC V1B 3L2 Office: Welcome Project Manager Art Director Publisher Denis Marson Tel: Published for BERCUM BUILDERS by: Paragon Publishing Inc. Calgary, Alberta Tel: Richart Bocxe Jim Thornton In an industry where the term contractor can have a very negative connotation and builders come and go with every new construction boom, Bercum Builders have chosen a different route. Bercum Builders have been dedicated to serving the Okanagan Valley since From then until now, Bercum has remained a family company, committed to its community, its clients, and its trades. The relationships we have built over many years have allowed us to maintain a distinguished quality and continuity, and keeps clients coming back. As luxury custom home specialists, we are part of a small group of North Okanagan contractors who have the history of working within the stringent environmental requirements of lake front properties as well as the harsh diversity of the weather conditions at Silver Star Mountain Resort. With the complexity of today s custom homes, Bercum Builders prides itself on the relationships it has developed in working with a complete team of designers, engineers, trades, and, most importantly, home owners who demand the highest level of customer service, professionalism, and craftsmanship. We specialize in working with out of town clients a specialization that requires the highest level of honesty, integrity, communication and direct access to the contractor. I take pride in running every project personally, allowing clients the comfort of knowing there is only one person to contact, one person who will answer all the questions and maintain the relationships and quality of each project. The heart of every good contractor is the quality and commitment of the trades it relies on. Bercum Builders has been blessed with working along side some of the very best in the business. I can truly say that I am Living the Dream, since acquiring Bercum Builders from Bill and Michelle Crum. Bill continues to serve Bercum as a mentor and friend. Bill and I share the values that he built this company on, the passion for construction customer service. I have pledged to continue his legacy of developing relationships and the highest standard of craftsmanship.

7 Bercum Builders: history, craftsmanship and the relationships that bring it all together The secret to our success is simple, but not easily achieved: Painstaking quality, honesty, integrity and long-term relationships between clients, builder, trades, suppliers and designers. Bercum Builders has been the North Okanagan s premier custom home builder for more than thirty Over 50 brands massive live showroom years. Building three or four boutique-quality homes per year allows us to spend the time and attention required to achieve the results our clients demand. Satisfied clients become our best advertising Having our customers return for renovations, second homes, even third homes, along with the numerous referrals we ve earned over the years, has allowed Bercum the privilege of building more than one-hundred custom homes over the years. Particularly when we work with out-of town clients, it is critical to keep communications open, fast, responsive and genuine. Bercum Builders, led by Bill Crum and now Darren Witt, has excelled in working with clients from all over the world, from as near as Calgary, to as distant as Hong Kong and Australia. We ve built our reputation on a unique ability to achieve exceptional results for families who want to come to their Okanagan home to relax and not worry. At award-winning Bercum Builders, we are proud of our family business, and take tremendous pride in our craftsmanship, our heritage and our relationships with the people we build for and work with. Ask our clients if they would work with us again, ask our sub trades, our suppliers, our designers we are just as proud of the relationships we build and maintain as we are of our homes and we would be proud to build for you. q Over 50 years in business BERCUM BUILDERS 7

Choosing a contractor Choosing the builder for your home or renovation is more than just a financial decision your contractor will almost become part of your family for the course of your project.

Here are a few suggestions for choosing a contractor you can work with, and who can complete a home you will be proud of: The most trustworthy advertising is word of mouth.

It s a cliché, but it s often true: the best and busiest contractors do not need to advertise their past clients are their best ads. Meet the contractor at their office.

15 Choosing a contractor Choosing the builder for your home or renovation is more than just a financial decision your contractor will almost become part of your family for the course of your project. Are they someone who you can work with, someone you want to talk to nearly every day? Here are a few suggestions for choosing a contractor you can work with, and who can complete a home you will be proud of: The most trustworthy advertising is word of mouth. Were you referred Custom Cabinetry Furniture Millwork Proud Supplier to Bercum Builders to the contractor by a trusted friend, or did you find them in the newspaper, phonebook or online? It s a cliché, but it s often true: the best and busiest contractors do not need to advertise their past clients are their best ads. Meet the contractor at their office. Are they proud of their space, busy, but organized? Visit one of the builder s homes under construction. Is it clean and organized? Does it feel good, does it feel exciting to be part of a tremendous build? Watch your potential builder communicate with the suppliers and the trades-people on the job, and judge for yourself how their relationships look. Ask to visit homes the contractor has completed. Are clients proud of the work done, and pleased to show it off? Ask for references, and call them all. Even ask for references from those references: Who referred them to their builder? Who are their suppliers? Call those suppliers and inquire about the builder s reputation for demanding quality, and for paying their bills on time. Ask your potential contractor how they price their jobs, does it sound straight-forward and honest? If you follow these steps, we are sure that Bercum Builders will be your choice. q # 7, Street, Vernon, BC V1T 4K7 BERCUM BUILDERS 15
