A finished MAE custom home at dusk, lit from within

A building science company that builds homes.

What we stand for is easier to measure than to describe.

Every builder in this market claims the same things in nearly the same words. We would rather demonstrate the difference than declare it. That means real numbers early, building science in every decision, and a tested, documented result you can hold at the end.

What we stand for

Three commitments, shown on every build.

01

Building science in every decision

Water, air, and soil gas are engineered as one system before construction begins. The science is not a feature. It is the method.

Verification on every build

Concrete slump, blower door, air and radon, and embedded monitoring. The home is tested, and the results are handed to the owner.

Real numbers early

Accurate figures at the start of design, and kept current as the design moves. Decisions get made with real numbers in front of you.

The standard, in the finish

The same rigour above grade.

Experience

Decades of building, across more than one discipline.

MAE brings decades of collective experience across commercial, multifamily, and custom residential construction. That commercial background is why our foundations, documentation, and project controls hold to a higher standard than residential norms.

The larger goal

To build with better products, prove they perform, and help shape how the next generation of homes is built.

MAE is a Calgary company with a wider ambition: to prove that better materials and rigorous building science belong in every home, not just in a spec sheet most buyers never see.

Proof in the paperwork.
