How it all started

Bryan Reid Sr. established Pioneer Log Homes of British Columbia, a handcrafted log home building operation, in Williams Lake, British Columbia in 1973. This location (approximately 500Km North of Vancouver, BC) has provided excellent access to the world's finest stands of Spruce, Pine, Fir, and Western Red Cedar.

As the years passed and "The Pioneer Family" grew, it became apparent that close family support was necessary for all aspects of the successful operation.

The first family member to come on board was brother, André Chevigny, who trained under Bryan Sr. to become a Master Builder in his own right. Today, André is Pioneer's General Manager overseeing the day to day operations required to keep three building sites and the overall production running at maximum efficiency.
 
Brother, David Chevigny, trained under Bryan Sr. to learn the basic craft of log building and in 1987 moved out on his own establishing Pioneer Logging. Pioneer Logging works with Pioneer Log Homes in securing and harvesting timber.

Son, Bryan Reid Jr., trained with both André and Bryan Sr. to become a Master Builder. Bryan Jr. now overseas the training and operations of the 153 Mile building site.

A third brother, Keith Reid, owns and operates MasterCraft Cabinets, Windows and Doors and provides the custom wood windows, doors, and cabinets for many of Pioneer Log Home's customers.

After Pioneer's success and acceptance as quality log home builders in British Columbia, they looked upon the opportunity to further develop their operation by entering the worldwide market. It was, and still is, integral to maintain a reputation for the highest quality.

Today, Pioneer Log Homes of British Columbia Ltd. has emerged as a comprehensive, state-of-the-art, handcrafted log building company, recognized throughout the world. Experiencing over three decades of traditional joinery techniques, design excellence & innovation in log and timber construction. Pioneer has emerged as the industry leader, positioning themselves to meet the demands of the new millenium.
