About JCB & Sons
JCB & SONS is a family business that we started back in 1988 as JCB Homes, founded by John and Carol Ann Bender. We began as new home builders but soon branched out into renovations, combining our passion for fine woodworking with our unique skills. In 2006, Christian Bender, a Licensed General Carpenter who grew up immersed in the business, took over ownership and management. Christian's hands-on approach ensures every project reflects quality craftsmanship and fresh, innovative design. It’s this originality and attention to detail that sets us apart.
We believe in working closely with our clients, turning ideas into reality. We take the guesswork out of the process by offering trustworthy advice, expert insights, detailed construction plans, and accurate quotes. From product choices to final touches, we’re there every step of the way, helping our clients make informed decisions. With our dedication, skill, and honest approach, we make the building experience not just stress-free but truly enjoyable.
Our motto, “Where quality is built and our reputation is building,” says it all. By using top-quality materials, bringing creative ideas to the table, and working with skilled craftsmen, we consistently deliver projects that not only meet but exceed both the Ontario Building Code and customer expectations. Whether it’s a brand-new home, a thoughtful renovation, a sleek residential update, or even a commercial or agricultural project, we bring together functionality, style, and creativity in every build.
Proudly serving our community since 1988!
