Smith & Sons General Contractors Podcast
Smith & Sons Coldstream are local General Contractors specializing in residential renovations, remodels, and custom homes across the Okanagan.
We know that for most homeowners, building or renovating is one of the biggest financial and emotional investments they’ll ever make. That’s why our focus is simple — deliver projects with clarity, structure, and as little stress as possible.
At Smith & Sons, we don’t leave things to chance. We operate with clear plans, detailed specifications, and — where appropriate — fixed price contracts. Because in our world, if it’s not in writing, it doesn’t exist.
This podcast is designed for homeowners who want to understand the process before they commit. We walk you through how projects actually work — from your first inquiry, through estimating, design, pre-construction, pricing, and into construction and completion.
You’ll also hear real conversations with:
- Homeowners who’ve been through the process
- Designers, suppliers, and trade partners
- Industry professionals sharing practical insights
- And behind-the-scenes thinking from Max Peterson and the Smith & Sons team
Our goal is to give you the knowledge and confidence to make informed decisions — and avoid the common mistakes that cost time, money, and unnecessary stress.
If you're planning a renovation or building project, this podcast will help you understand what to expect, what to look out for, and how to get it done properly.

Ep. 05 - WE'LL GIVE YOU A FIXED PRICE!!!
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
<p>Smith & Sons know what clients want: </p>
- FIXED PRICE
- LIST OF SPECIFICATIONS
- COMPLETION DATE
<p>We know that if a client has these, they experience greater peace of mind, a feeling of security, and a higher level of satisfaction during both the pre-construction process and the construction phase itself.</p>
<p>We chat about the pros and cons of the popular COST PLUS CONTRACT and the not-so-well-known FIXED PRICE AGREEMENT.</p>
<p>This episode will knock the lid off this hot topic and hopefully remove some of the confusion around which building contract suits you best.</p>
