About Us
Growing up, Kurt Rushlow, KOR Construction Inc. Owner & Lead Builder, was always fascinated by the custom house designs he would watch his father create as an architect.
Wanting to be a part of making those designs come to life, Kurt started framing with some of the Greater Toronto Area and Durham Region’s top home builders and quickly realized his natural skills and love for the trade—leading him to establish KOR Construction in 2013.
Kurt is a fourth-generation industry expert, with his father (architect), grandfather (home builder) and great-grandfather (stonemason) establishing themselves as innovators in the home building industry.
Over the past 16 years in the industry, Kurt has built a strong reputation for his genuine commitment to superior craftsmanship, knowledge of the top building methods and materials, high-quality customer service, integrity and attention to detail.
Kurt personally works on and manages all aspects on every framing project, and is well-known for developing meaningful relationships with his clients and delivering consistent results.
From the planning phase through to completion, the KOR Construction team is dedicated to being your trusted advocate throughout the entire journey. We value the opportunity to work with you and your architect as the design develops to bring innovative ideas to the table and provide insights on cost-saving opportunities. We also offer in-house custom home designs developed by Scott Rushlow, an award-winning architect.
​
Building your dream home or cottage is a big investment—and one that is meant to last. We frame all homes as if they were our own, and make it our top priority to ensure projects are completed on time and on budget while never compromising quality.
​
We would love to hear from you on how we can collaborate on bringing your vision to life!
Testimonials
I wish there was a choice to give this company a 10 STAR not just five! From that initial call to the last nail that went in, it has been an absolute pleasure to work with KOR Construction. We had a huge, delayed project at hand with complicated design and truss plans and they put us back on track to finish on time. From getting the initial estimate, weekly updates/questions and throughout construction, they have been beyond courteous and professional!
Elevation of a custom 6900 sq. ft. two story structure requires a lot of organization, detail, teamwork, working equipment and lumber deliveries in stages. These guys did it all in the most seamless and fastest pace possible with short lunch times and minimal breaks. Their reliability was superb, work ethic commendable and they have never missed a day when they were expected to be there!
No hidden costs or extra charges, unless we added something and that too was very reasonable. The work was impeccable and of the highest quality and craftsmanship. Next trades in all commented on what an awesome job the framers had done!
We got to visually walk through each level before the walls went up, which allowed for any changes to be made before a nail was hammered into any piece of lumber!
I don't know the entire crew by name, but we do know that it was an absolute pleasure to work with Kurt and his team at KOR Construction. They are the best!

Kurt from KOR Construction was our framer for our project. Kurt has work integrity, knowledge and skill. We are building a Richard Wengle house which is not an easy project, along with framing with wood there are many steel columns and beams framed in. Kurt was up for the challenge. I would recommend him for any project!
