Riley lives in Millarville, AB with his wife and two children. He’s a dedicated father and minor hockey coach, and will never turn down a cold beer or baseball. 

Craig Preissl

Owner-Operator

Getting his start in building in 1990, Craig has an experienced eye for spacial planning and architecture. His roots lie in Kelowna, BC where he first fell in love with home building. Him and his middle son, Riley, joined forces in 2009 to start Kananaskis Custom Homes. Moving the business to Alberta in 2014 has transformed their business and lifestyle.

When Craig works with clients, he not only keeps in mind their goals and wishes, but also ensures that the floor plan is functional and effective. When he’s not on-site, he’s can be found behind the scenes taking care of paperwork, invoices and pulling permits. Craig spent many years at the baseball park in Kelowna with his 3 sons, and now is enjoying being a ‘Grumpy’ to his 2 grandchildren. He loves exploring the outdoors and fishing with his wife of 32 years, Joann and their dog, Roxy.

Tayor Preissl

In-House Design

Interior design has always been a passion for Taylor, and she brings that passion into every home project at Kananaskis Custom Homes. She loves the entire design process from start to finish, and has a strong attention to detail that brings everything together. Leaving nothing to chance, she understands that the decisions made at the beginning can have a weight on the overall feel and energy of the home. 

Taylor has experience working with a variety of styles and an appreciation for what makes each one unique. Through career experience as a real estate appraiser, she knows how to add value without sacrificing personal preferences or style.

Working closely with clients on a contract basis, Taylor is able to co-ordinate meetings with suppliers or provide in-home consultations. Taylor is Riley’s wife and a committed mother to their two wonderful kids. She shares Riley’s love of baseball, but would rather you offer her wine over beer!
