Heritage Log Home Addition – West Grey Builder Priceville
We broke ground this past August on an 18’ x 40’ addition for a heritage log home near Priceville, Ontario—just outside Durham and close to Flesherton. Built off the back of the original summer kitchen, this new structure includes a conditioned attic space for storage and ties seamlessly into the existing log construction. As the builder, JCB & SONS was hired to manage the excavation, framing, and layout with care—balancing new construction with the historic character of the property.
To maintain a minimal construction footprint, we completed the excavation ourselves using compact equipment. This gave us full control over site timing and allowed the work to proceed efficiently without disturbing the surrounding landscape. This type of heritage home addition—thoughtful, clean, and solid—is a great example of the kind of rural carpentry and renovation work we specialize in across West Grey and the surrounding Grey Highlands.
Two runs of rebar were ran in the 8” x 24” footing to keep it super strong set 4’-0” below finished grade to give proper frost protection.
We also formed this project ourselves with Strip-Ease forms to control the schedule keeping the project moving without delays.
