Case Study: Effect Home Builders achieves streamlined project management and award-winning green renovations with UDA Technologies' ConstructionOnline

Effect Home Builders - Customer Case Study

Effect Home Builders is an Edmonton-based green builder specializing in Net Zero Energy homes with Built Green and R2000 certifications and the 2018 High Performance (HP+) Builder of the Year award. Their challenge was a complex 1960s home renovation: add a second-story extension with two bedrooms, install geothermal heating and a solar array for an indoor pool, and upgrade finishes—all while preserving original character elements like cedar cladding, patios, slate walkways and the full-sized pool.

Using ConstructionOnline for file management, ClientLink portals and lead tracking, Effect coordinated the multi‑trade project efficiently and delivered the sustainable upgrades and addition on schedule. The finished home features geothermal heating, pool solar, bamboo vanities, modern tile, custom-colored poured concrete floors and private decks off each bedroom—preserving the home’s essence while improving performance and owner satisfaction.
