spearheading innovative affordable housing units constructed entirely from insulated concrete forms (ICF) – walls, floors, and roofs – pushing the firm into new territory in sustainable and resilient building design. Clients consistently choose Palmer & Doherty for one primary reason: trust. “Most of our business comes from word-of-mouth referrals,” Brenna says. “People feel comfortable knowing we’re local, that we understand the community, and that Tim has been here for generations. Our reputation is built on the relationships we maintain and the consistent quality we deliver.” She emphasizes that this trust is reinforced by the firm’s deep community connections. Tim Palmer’s family has a long history in the region, making the company a familiar and reliable presence. In rural communities, where relationships matter as much as technical expertise, this local knowledge is invaluable. Efficiency is another hallmark. The team attributes their ability to move quickly to a combination of experience and technology. “Tim’s knowledge, particularly in agricultural construction and older techniques like pole barns, gives us an edge,” Brenna explains. “But 100 per cent of our speed comes from technology. We use Revit 2025, which allows us to create highly accurate 3D models. It reduces drafting time, minimizes errors, and lets clients see exactly what they’ll get before construction begins. A project that might take 40 hours in AutoCAD can take just 12 hours in Revit.” This technology also ensures compatibility across projects, reducing the chance of errors or delays, THE CONSTRUCTION SOURCE CANADA
