Canadian houses in La Araucanía
We build with the Canadian Metalcon system, on site, across La Araucanía — from Temuco to the lake district of Villarrica and Pucón. It is not a prefab kit house: it's Canadian construction built on your land.
Building in La Araucanía
La Araucanía has cold, long, very rainy winters. It's the climate the Canadian system was born for: continuous insulation that keeps the house warm with less firewood or heating, and a double humidity barrier that protects the walls from constant rain.
The good building window is short, and that's where dry construction is key: the fast Metalcon assembly lets us raise the house in the dry season and reach winter with the build closed up — from plots in Temuco and Lautaro to the lakeshore in Villarrica and Pucón.
Why a Canadian house in La Araucanía
- Canadian insulation designed for the southern cold and rain.
- Double humidity barrier in one of the rainiest areas of the country.
- Fast dry assembly to make the most of the short building season.
- We know the municipal regulations and soils of the region.

FAQ — La Araucanía
Can you build in winter in the lake district?
Ideally the build starts in the dry season: Metalcon dry construction moves fast and lets us close up the house before the heavy rains. We plan the construction schedule around your intended start date.
Does the house hold its heat in the southern cold?
Yes, that's precisely the Canadian system's specialty: continuous insulation in walls, roof and floor retains heat and reduces spending on firewood or heating through the Araucanía winter.
Do you serve Temuco, Villarrica and Pucón?
Yes, we cover the whole region: Temuco, Padre Las Casas, Villarrica, Pucón, Lautaro, Freire, Cunco, Curacautín and surroundings.
