In spite of all that 2020 has thrown at the world, this has been an amazing year. In the early planning stages of the Input Housing condominium, we had many conversations with people in and around the construction industry. Some became immediate supporters of the project, both philosophically and materially. One such conversation occurred with […]
…and we’ve ALL been busy. What started as a building has become a home. Remember our look at the in-floor heating installation (on the left)? Well, that beautiful main floor space is now the heart and hub of the building: where resident/owners gather for meals, meetings, activities and socializing. The transformation is the result of […]
Things are moving steadily towards the completion of our beautiful condo building. Here you see the installation of the in-floor heating piping in the main floor kitchen, dining and living room area. (Look at that beautiful open space!) Mitch Todd – in the orange jacket – from Alliance Plumbing, Heating and Air Conditioning, has been […]

Reconciling the words “Best” and “Budget” in the same sentence is tough. Now try balancing those two ideas in the same project! That’s exactly what our architects, designers, general- and sub-contractors have done every step of the way with Input Housing. “Best” certainly describes the appealing stone work on our building. The stone veneer visible […]
We apologize for not posting anything for these past weeks. A lot has changed in the world recently and we, like everyone else, are adjusting to the current circumstances. That doesn’t mean work has stopped at the Input building. Westridge Construction has implemented various safety protocols to keep everyone as safe as possible. This means […]
Installation of the gypsum board panels is well underway on the top floor. When all of the mechanical and electrical rough-ins have been installed and verified a suite can go from wood studs to boarded walls in half a day.
Ultimate Insulation in Regina is installing the spray applied insulation in the building. Attention to detail is critical when doing this type of work and Ultimate Insulation is doing a fantastic job. Not only are they filling the stud cavities perfectly with spray foam insulation, they are also sealing every gap between multiple vertical studs […]
