Custom Home Renovations

Kitchens & Bathrooms Built for Daily Life

These are the two rooms that shape your daily routine more than any other space in the house. We start by understanding how you actually use a kitchen or bathroom now, and where it’s currently getting in your way, then design around that instead of a generic template. Custom cabinetry, premium fixtures, natural stone or tile selections, and carefully planned lighting come together to create rooms that hold up to daily use as well as they look on the day they’re finished.

Outdoor Living Spaces That Extend Your Home

Outdoor living space works differently here than it does somewhere drier. A deck or patio that isn’t built with proper drainage and waterproofing will show it within a couple of wet winters, so we treat that work with the same structural attention we’d give anything happening inside the house. A covered patio or outdoor kitchen gets used through most of the year rather than just July and August, and a deck that ties cleanly into the home’s existing structure holds up to actual weather instead of just looking good in a dry-season photo. This is the award category we’ve been recognized for, and it’s usually the piece that turns a renovated interior into a home your family actually uses outside, not just one that looks finished from the yard.

Character and Heritage Home Renovations

Character homes hold details that new construction can’t replicate: original mouldings, timber framing, leaded glass, or a floor plan shaped by an earlier era’s idea of how people lived. We’ve learned how to work around those details rather than through them, updating the structure and mechanical systems while keeping the elements that give a home its identity. The result respects the house’s history while making it function for how your family actually lives today.

Accessibility and Aging-in-Place Renovations

More families are choosing to renovate for independence rather than move into a different kind of home. Curbless showers, grab bars, wider doorways, ramps, and lowered counters can make a home work for the long term without it feeling like a retrofit. Provincial programs, including the BC Rebate for Accessible Home Adaptations, can help offset the cost of some of this work for those who qualify, and we’re happy to talk through what applies to your project.

What to Expect When You Renovate an Older Home

Homes built before 1990 can carry surprises behind their walls, from wiring and plumbing that no longer meets current standards to older building materials that need to be handled carefully once they’re uncovered. We plan for that uncertainty rather than treating it as a surprise, and, if testing or assessment is required before we open up a wall, that step gets built into your schedule up front. Permitting works the same way. Structural changes and added square footage are common permit triggers, and plumbing or electrical work often needs its own permit too. The specifics vary by municipality, and we handle that process directly so you’re not left figuring out which permits apply to your project.
