About Us
Since our establishment in 1995, our team at Brost Developments has prided ourselves in showing customers what a wonderful experience building their custom home can be. Our intention is not to be the biggest builder, but to strive to be the best! Through the years, we have earned much success with our approach to building personalized homes, offices, and other projects, that are tailored to meet the unique needs of our clients.
Our experience ranges from project management of all phases of the Chinook Village complex to renovations of numerous professional offices throughout Medicine Hat, and as of the fall 2024, we were proud to have started construction on our 257th home. A number of skilled and trained employees have joined our team over the years and are committed to bringing you the highest level of workmanship that we have earned a reputation for.
We continue today to build forward in everything we do.
MEET OUR TEAM
Our team at Brost brings an unparalleled level of combined knowledge and experience to the construction industry in our neck of the woods. We have trained carpentry, design and financial professionals on our team ready to give you a unique, personalized building experience. We don’t want you to just fall in love with your home on move-in day, we want you to love the entire process it took to get there, and beyond.

Gerhard, the patriarch of the company, has grown Brost Developments from the foundation up to the position it is today. We don’t want to age him, so we’ll just say that he comes with multiple decades of experience in the construction industry.
Gerhard learned the art of construction from hands-on work and now brings his wisdom to the design table of the company. He will work with you to come up with a plan for your special project that is both mindful of your lifestyle and respectful of your budget.
He is known for saying that it is always best to build it right the first time and instills this value in our team as we put our best skills forward on all the work we complete. He truly wants all of our customers to love their home when they move in and be confident that its durability is unmatched.

There are people in this world who were born for their vocation and Aaron is definitely one of those people. Right from earning his journeyman ticket, he was an award-winning carpenter who had a passion for swinging a hammer, distinct design and pushing the envelope.
Aaron brings over two decades of home building and design experience to the team and has had his hands on every step of the construction process. He is a driving force in our Building Forward initiative, never satisfied with the status quo.
He sits on the BILD Medicine Hat Board of Directors and leads their Technical Committee. He is also a member of the Provincial BILD Alberta Technical Committee. Aaron is the background driver and bird's eye view of all of our projects, ensuring that the Mission of our company is steeped into every single one of our projects.

With a long lineage of carpenters in Tim's family, the trade runs through his veins. He has a keen ability to solve any construction problem, which we have coined as Timgineering.
When he is not solving challenges, you will get to know Tim after the completion of your home or renovation. We don’t believe that the relationship with our homeowners ends when they move in, and as such, Tim is a dedicated member of our team whose focus is to ensure everything in your home looks and works perfectly from the day you move in and beyond.
He is easily accessible to answer any questions you have in operating your new home or correcting any imperfections

While spreadsheets aren’t for everyone, they are an enjoyable part of the day for our resident beancounter, Sherry.
After earning her accounting stripes in public practice for over a decade, Sherry made the transition to the family business a number of years ago to look after the management functions of the company.
So if you have questions about your billings, want to comment on the company’s social media or have a non-construction question (she's leaving those to the experts on her team), she is here to help.

Once you commit to building a home with Brost, Mike takes charge of making sure construction is done to our highest standards and promptly.
Mike will be there to answer any questions you have about your new home build and guide you through making various mechanical and finishing decisions along the way.
He comes with over 20 years of experience and is committed to making sure you have confidence that your home is built entirely for you. There is no request too big, too small or too unusual that Mike can’t bring to life.

Alex is the friendly face you will meet when you first step into our office. While much of Alex’s time is spent working with Aaron to ensure everything is in order for your home, she also looks after various aspects around the office including marketing, home design and general operations.
