Melchers Construction is a family owned and family run business founded in 1987 by Ted Melchers. Chris Melchers grew up working on our job sites and he joined the business full time in 2004 after graduating from Construction Engineering at Fanshawe College. Our team includes more than 30 staff whose dedication and work ethic reflect our own.

Initially focused on home renovations, Melchers has grown exponentially over the years and we are now a full service design/build company with projects that include residential and commercial projects.

In addition to their new home development west of the city, Melchers will be designing and building phase two of the Kokomo Beach Club in Port Stanley. Developer, Wastell Homes was able to attract a builder of Melchers’ caliber because of the incredible creativity and quality that went into the vision of the Kokomo Beach Club.

Melchers Construction is an Award-winning local builder

In 2011 Ted received the prestigious Mowbray Sifton Award given annually to a member in recognition of their outstanding contribution to the LHBA in the three preceding years. The LHBA’s President’s Award established in 1995 to honour members or industry supporters who have given an extra effort to better profile the LHBA without personal gain, was awarded to Ted in 2008 and to Chris in 2016. Both Ted and Chris have sat on the London Home Builder’s Association (LHBA) board of directors in the past (Ted as President in 2014-2015) and both continue to actively participate in LHBA initiatives and community service.

Since its inception, the company has won more than two dozen LHBA Awards of Creative Excellence including Renovator of the Year honours five times in the past nine years (including 2019). This year, Melchers was a finalist in both the Renovator and Builder of the Year categories, the first time a single company has been represented in both categories.
