LUXURY REFINED.
SUSTAINABILITY REALIZED.
LUXURY CUSTOM HOME BUILDERS IN THE OKANAGAN WITH EXPERTISE IN SUSTAINABLE HEMP CONSTRUCTION
At Westcan Contracting, we build with the long view in mind—crafting luxury high-end custom homes that endure in form, function, and feeling. Based in the Okanagan and working throughout Kelowna, Vernon, and beyond, we take on a range of residential projects, from architect-designed new luxury builds to full-scale high-end renovations.
In addition to our custom work, we’re recognized for our experience in sustainable construction—especially with natural materials like hempcrete. Whether you’re building a traditional luxury home or exploring a low-impact alternative, our approach stays the same: thoughtful, disciplined, and built to last.
RENOVATION OF THE YEAR AWARD 2025
PUSHING THE LIMITS OF WHAT'S POSSIBLE
For over 20 years, we’ve built more than just homes—we’ve built trust.
Clients come to Westcan because they want something different: a builder who values craft over speed, clarity over complexity, and relationships that last as long as the homes themselves.
We take on the projects that feel right—where there’s room to do things properly, and space to build a solid working relationship. Whether it's a contemporary home on the side of a mountain or a full-scale renovation in town, the approach stays the same: thoughtful planning, careful execution, and no shortcuts.
A DIFFERENT KIND OF SUSTAINABILITY
We’ve been building with hempcrete since 2017, completing over 10,000 sq/ft of installations, and willing to share the knowledge we have gained to better your dream build.
For us, it’s not a trend—it’s a practical, high-performance material that offers strength, durability, and exceptional thermal efficiency. Hempcrete homes are breathable, fire-resistant, and remarkably energy-efficient, making them a smart, sustainable choice for modern living in the Okanagan and beyond.
We use hemp not just for its environmental benefits, but because it helps us build better homes—homes that feel grounded, healthy, and designed to last.
OUR WORK SPEAKS. LOUDLY.
From custom homes in Kelowna to major renovations in Vernon, our work speaks for itself. We build with care, precision, and a commitment to quality that runs through every detail.
CLIENT TESTIMONIALS
Mark Faber and Westcan Contracting were exceptional! Mark was professional, patient, and extremely transparent throughout every phase of the project. He explained everything that him and his company were going to do, until I had the perfect understanding of every aspect of the project, as well as the associated cost.
As a busy physician, I most appreciated Mark’s ability to “take things off my plate”, so that I would not be “stressed” or worried about the day to day details of the project. When there were changes in the scope of work, Mark was always the first to bring me up to speed on the required changes.
Mark did all of this while showing empathy and compassion. Westcan Contracting was able to efficiently and effectively bring the project to completion. Best of all, Mark and his team did amazing work! I cannot recommend Mark and Westcan highly enough. A++

We were particularly impressed with the exceptional relationships Mark has with the sub-trades. Each member of the team was reliable, professional and focused on delivering services on time and within budget.
