We are an extraordinarily small guild with the aim of providing lost heritage skill sets to aid in the restoration and preservation of heritage houses and to a lessor degree heritage commercial buildings across North America.
Our mission is to educate property owners and most importantly nurture our Guild’s Members through mentorship for what we represent, Heritage Conservation! We need to help unite the skilled and educated craftspeople with heritage property owners, to ensure the appropriate practices are undertaken to safeguard the future of our built heritage.
Third Party endorsements
Having Edifice endorse your work, praise your achievements, and promote your successes, is the best testament to your ability. It always sounds more credible when praise for your company doesn’t come out of your own mouth!
People trust someone who already has an established credibility like Edifice.
People always look for opinions. As humans it is our nature to look for more options before deciding. We always look for: Where to go? What to eat? What to wear? What company to hire? And hearing those opinions from an authority we look up to, makes the decision making much easier.
People don’t want to be sold.
As a business owner, you start your business with all marketing and sales strategy. And these efforts end with the goal of selling but the consumer (your target market) don’t want to be sold.
The public trusts Edifice!
When conveying your message to the public it is easier to spread your message with Edifice’s network of followers and subscribers. But aside from introducing your specialized service, the consumer also has the impression that you are credible because someone they trust (Edifice) is also trusting you. People who know you become comfortable doing business with you.

Our Mandate and Mantra
The Edifice Guild’s objectives are to assist members to obtain more work, by increasing consumers perception of their heritage skill and integrity.
There is a need to bring together all heritage skilled people and professionals engaged in a craft, art, profession, trade or vocation to safeguard their interests. To perpetuate the survival and success of their particular heritage craft.
We want to provide clear identification and recognition for members, so as to enable the public to distinguish them from the unskilled and unscrupulous!
To promote to the public the work of our guild’s members, their integrity, professional expertise and honour, their high standards and the value for money which they offer to the consumer.
We publicize these high standards through our television series Heritage Places Television and the New Edifice Magazine, and through our social media channels and national advertising. Thus, creating public awareness of the ideals and aims of the Edifice Guild and its members.
We are the artisans, we need to unite, we need our voices to be heard and to preserve our future!!!
