NANAIMO, BC, Nov. 16, 2023 /PRNewswire/ - Alair™, North America's largest privately-held custom home building and renovation company, proudly announces the opening of its 100th franchise location. This landmark achievement signifies Alair's rapid growth since its inception in 2007 while also underscoring its unique position as an industry innovator and community benefactor.

Founded in British Columbia, Canada, and evolving into a franchise model in 2012, Alair has become a beacon of excellence in custom home building and large-scale renovations. The #Alair100 launch was celebrated in Alexandria, Virginia, on November 9, 2023 with an event that brought together partners and regional leaders from across North America.

Rob Cecil, President of Alair, commented on this achievement: "Reaching 100 locations is not just a number for us; it's a testament to our commitment to innovation, quality, collaboration and community. Each Alair partner embodies these values, driving us forward as we reimagine the home building experience across North America."

Cecil adds, "We are delighted to welcome Carbon Design Build to the Alair network as Alair Alexandria, our third franchise office in Northern Virginia, marking a significant milestone as the 100th franchise. Matt Bieschke and his team bring a wealth of experience and a strong commitment to quality and community that perfectly aligns with Alair's values. This partnership will not only elevate the home building and remodeling experience for homeowners in Alexandria and the surrounding areas but also strengthen our collective impact in supporting local charities and making a positive difference in the communities we serve."

Matt Bieschke, Owner of Carbon Design Build and the latest Alair partner, expressed his excitement about joining the network: "What excites me about joining Alair is the people, the collaboration, the regional presence, and the fact that we can do better for our community and clients as part of Alair. With the regional presence here in Northern Virginia, as well as nationally and across North America, we have a much better ability to give back to the community and support charities in a way that I could never do on my own as an independent builder."

The #Alair100 event not only commemorated Alair's growth but also its commitment to community service. It raised more than $8,600 USD and 800 pounds of food for ALIVE!, the largest private safety net in Alexandria, VA, dedicated to fighting poverty and hunger. Moreover, the event marked the beginning of Alair's ambitious '100 Acts of Living Better' campaign as part of Alair Cares, which is aimed at combating food insecurity across North America.

The company launched the Alair Cares community giving program in 2017. Since then, nearly $2 million has been contributed to local communities and around 5,000 volunteer hours have been provided by Team Alair.

Alair's innovative approach extends beyond community engagement. The company has introduced significant advancements in the construction industry, including its proprietary Client Control™ methodology, offering unparalleled transparency in the construction process. 

As Alair looks towards the future, it remains dedicated to nurturing talent within the construction industry. Through initiatives like the Project Management Summit, leadership training, and professional development resources, Alair is actively addressing the labor shortage in the industry and fostering the next generation of construction professionals.

In marking the opening of its 100th location, Alair reaffirms its position as a trailblazer in the home building industry and a champion for community involvement. Looking into the future, Alair is excited to continue expanding its network of skilled leaders, procurement programs and vendor partnerships, innovative building solutions, and community-focused initiatives.
