After 25 years of experience as a custom homebuilder,
Lockington Homes are a small but reputable construction
company in the Alymer and St. Thomas, Ontario communities.
Kelly Lockington, the company’s owner, first trained as a
carpenter in the 80’s and joined the Ontario New Home
Warranty Program in the early 90’s. His wife Lorna, certified in
home design and a trained SoftPlan draftsperson, has
designed many of the one of a kind signature homes.
Family-owned and operated, Kelly Lockington will pass his
company on to his son, Ben in the coming years, where he will
apply his Construction Technology and ICF certifications and
continue to grow the business by pushing the limits of
conventional home building.
First gaining confidence in constructing with Insulated
Concrete Formwork (ICF) nearly 16 years ago, Lockington
specializes in ICF foundation and frames because of the
superior sound and thermal barrier it provides over wood in
the Canadian climate. Kelly is trained and certified to supply
and install ICF, and has now completely converted from
conventional construction methods to become one of
Ontario's few "full time" ICF dedicated crews.
In addition to ICF, Lockington Homes has also completed the
necessary training to become an authorized applicator of the
Agilia Screed A product by Lafarge. As a custom homebuilder,
Lockington can now offer their clients the most energy
efficient building envelope possible with the exterior thermal
mass of ICF and the interior heating efficiencies with a radiant
floor system.
WHY WE WORK WITH THE BEST.
While easy to place, AgiliaTM Screed A does require a thorough
understanding and detailed preparation of the site to ensure
the performance of the product. This is why Agilia Screed A is
exclusively installed by authorized contractors.
These contractors have the proper equipment and are trained
for all application types. A typical crew size is dependent on
the job size, but in favourable conditions a small crew of 3 to
4 can install up to 40, 000 square feet in one day.
