Town of Cochrane
General Contractor in Cochrane, AB
Cochrane sits in the foothills west of Calgary, and its growth has brought a mix of established town-lot homes and newer acreage and estate properties with mountain views. That mix shows up in the work we do here — basement development and renovations in the town's older neighbourhoods, and new home construction or larger additions on acreage properties on Cochrane's outskirts. As a smaller, fast-growing community, the Town of Cochrane manages its own building permit process, and we coordinate that submission directly so your project moves forward without delays on our end.

Does the Town of Cochrane require a permit for basement development?
Yes. The Town of Cochrane requires a building permit for basement development involving framing, electrical, plumbing, or egress windows, and AM Builders handles that submission as part of the project.
Do you build homes on acreage properties around Cochrane?
Yes. We take on new home construction on acreage and larger lots around Cochrane, where site access, septic systems, and well water often need to be factored into the build plan.
How does building in Cochrane differ from building in Calgary?
The core process — design, permitting, construction, inspection — is the same, but Cochrane's mix of town lots and acreage properties means site conditions vary more, and the Town of Cochrane's permitting office is a separate process from the City of Calgary's.
