Sol Sustainable

Inspired by ecologically sound design principles, and using tried and tested innovative technologies, we plan and construct high efficiency custom crafted homes. Our goal is to delight our clients with resilient, light-filled spaces to live in that don’t consume heating or cooling energy. We build for the future with sustainable practices that lock in savings for generations to come. We are a family run business based in Victoria, British Columbia, and we have been building and renovating homes for decades. You may know us as Melissa Ollsin, Charlie Appleford, and the team at Appleford Building Company. At Appleford Building Company we are experts in making substantial improvements to older buildings to bring them up to code and improve efficiency. We also incorporate new technologies and proven innovative approaches whenever we build homes from the ground up. What we’ve learned, is that it is now possible to design and craft homes that exceed energy-efficient targets for building. These sensible building practices have inspired us to launch our sister company, Sol Sustainable, to help us realize our vision of innovative custom home design for our clients.
