Hiring a contractor to manage your project, build or renovate your home is a big step.

Knowledge, experience, and talent all play a role in how a project turns out. But there’s more.

You want to work with a team that thinks and looks ahead when it comes to the design and the execution of a project.

Then there are the key aspects of communication and your feeling of getting great service. Do they care about you? Your family?

Thistle Construction has over 50 years of combined experience in building homes and renovations. We care about your family because they are like our family. Brothers Donnie and Phil Aitken began our careers in construction back in the old country, Scotland and we are extremely proud of that fact. We started our families right here in Victoria BC. As brothers we learned together the traditional methods of construction, we also learned that getting to know and work with our customers as opposed to just working for our customers,  makes a real difference when it comes to the final result. We don’t just sit still though. We are consistently connecting with our industry friends and mentors both here in Canada and through our connections in the U.K finding new and innovative ways to handle our customer’s projects.

We (Donnie and Phil) make it a point to combine old-fashioned and well-taught service skills with today’s latest innovations. This results in well-built, well-planned completed projects and more importantly, very happy customers.
