Our story

Built on Experience. Grown Through Family.

Sovereign Homes began in 1990 as a side project for Jim Sovran, a former City of Windsor building inspector with a civil engineering background who built custom homes in his spare time. Over the years, Jim completed a number of residential projects while developing strong relationships with local trades, consultants, and city officials throughout Windsor-Essex.

After retiring from the City of Windsor, Jim began receiving more opportunities in the commercial construction space. Around the same time, his son Trent graduated and convinced him to take the side hustle full-time, founding the general contracting company alongside him. Together, they expanded the company beyond custom homes and officially evolved Sovereign Homes into Sovereign Developments.
