What People Say

Through the building of three homes with my husband, I learned to look for quality from the “first dig” to the last nail. So when I hired Darrick and his team, I watched carefully and I was very pleased with the care everyone took in their work. Darrick is easy to work with because he is “client centered”. I highly recommend him for the quality of work, the ability for the client to make so many decisions, his helpful suggestions, and his positive personality.

Susan Custom Home Client

We are so happy to be living in our new home. It's more beautiful than we imagined. You and your team did an amazing job!!

Jill Custom Home Client

Darrick Reiber and his team at 17 North design / build have worked diligently at handling all municipal liscences and very close with our architects, making the entire process seamless. The team was very respectful of our customers while work was in progressed. The professionalism, quality of workmanship and communications was above and beyond and costs all came in line with our planned budget. If my projects were a typical example, then you too will be happy to have the team on all your building needs.

Jeff Founder of ExNihilo Vineyards

We were introduced to Darrick & Kristy through a business relationship and quickly formed a level of comfort and trust. Having built a home recently in Calgary we were certain of what we were looking for in a design and calibre of home. Darrick’s Team from Design through Construction was there every step to help guide us through the nuances of Okanagan building. We were provided every opportunity to customize, upgrade and even save some money in certain areas as we focused on what was important to our family. The Trades & Suppliers were friendly, knowledgeable and open to our ideas throughout the process, even accommodating our questions on site throughout the build. Tony had command of the build site and gave us the peace of mind that each scope would be completed correctly and to a high standard. It was inspiring to visit our project and see it rise from the ground with each of our ideas and choices meld together into what was to become our home. Now we enjoy our evenings on the deck overlooking the lake, valley & mountains knowing that our home was built right by people that have become part of our Okanagan family. We can’t thank Darrick & Kristy enough for their support and guidance throughout this project and in helping us begin our new lives as a part of this community

Colin & Julie Vernon BC

17 North Design/Build built us a beautiful house in Black Mountain and we are very pleased with it. This was our first (and last) house-build and we were a little anxious, but Darrick was on our side throughout and was always available to answer our questions. We had a lot of our own ideas about lighting and interior design and Darrick’s wife Kristy helped by listening and setting up meetings. Finally, project foreman Tony was the best; he was totally in our corner riding herd on sub-contractors, not the easiest job.
We would definitely recommend 17 North to build your home.

About 17 NORTH

17 NORTH is a tribute to our roots, values, and vision!

Our journey began in Lloydminster, a unique community straddling the Alberta-Saskatchewan border. Highway 17, which runs along this border, connected our family homes from north to south. When we think of our hometown, the first thing that comes to mind is the wonderful people – true friends and family who share our history and beliefs. 17 North symbolizes the strength and resilience of the generations before us who settled and established family farms and communities amidst the beautiful yet often harsh prairies.

Our family's values are the foundation of 17 North Design Build.
