MIKE HOLMES PARTNERS WITH EMERALD PARK HOMES LTD

REGINA, SK (July 14, 2014)—Trusted contractor and popular television host, Mike Holmes welcomes Emerald Park Homes into his Holmes Approved Homes program as an official Partner Builder, and the first homebuilder in Regina to join the exclusive program.

Mike Holmes launched the Holmes Approved Homes program in 2011 as a way to implement his mandate in new-home construction and sustainable building, making it available to homeowners across the country. Emerald Park Homes’ first Holmes Approved Home will be featured this Saturday, July 19 at their show home event taking place at 34 Churchill Crescent in White City, from 9am to 5pm.

“I partnered with Emerald Park Homes because we share the same values when it comes to building right, proper construction, and what that means for you and your family,” stated Mike Holmes, President of The Holmes Group. “They know what it means to build homes that last for generations—the way we used to build. And they’re a family business. That tells me they care. Because at the end of the day, it’s their name on these homes, too. When it’s your name on the line you stand behind it,” added Holmes.

Mike Holmes and his team will be working with Emerald Park Homes to build custom “Holmes Approved” homes with enhanced durability, energy-efficiency, fire- moisture- and mould-resistance, sound protection and higher indoor air quality. These homes will also undergo a series of Mike Holmes Inspections throughout their construction in order to ensure they meet building specifications outlined by the program.

“We believe in building every home as if it were our own — that’s why we are proud to partner with Mike Holmes,” stated Garry Sawchyn, President of Emerald Park Homes. “We are pleased to offer the Holmes Approved Homes package to our customers.  Third party verification will add to the peace of mind of new homeowners, both now and for the future when they want to sell their home.”

“We are excited to work with Mike and his team. We’re already discussing green technology, improving the building envelope and green alternatives in lighting, water use and energy savings,” added Garry.

Emerald Park Homes has earned a reputation for customer satisfaction with over 30 years of experience in general construction.  Emerald Park Homes’ family business is the recipient of the Saskatchewan New Home Warranty Program’s Gold and Diamond Customer Service Award; member in good standing of TrustedRegina.com and the Regina & Region Home Builders’ Association.
