L. Patten & Sons Limited — Custom Home Builder in Collingwood Since 1958
L. Patten & Sons Limited is a third-generation custom home builder based in Collingwood, operating continuously since 1958 — founded by Lyman Patten, expanded by his son Grant, and now run by Grant’s son Jerry as president with sister Kristine managing the office. Six-plus decades in the Georgian Triangle gives them an unusually deep trade network in a region where custom building leans on scarce local skills (stone masons, timber framers, heritage restorers). Reviewers on home.renovation.reviews typically come to this profile looking for a builder who can hold scope across multi-year projects without rotating crews.

Why it’s on home.renovation.reviews
Multi-generation family builders with continuous operation through a single region are rare — most builders turn over ownership or relocate every 20 years or so. The directory keeps this listing because the Patten track record is a useful reference point for readers comparing new Collingwood entrants against a long-horizon baseline.
