General Contractor & Home Renovations in Vancouver, BC

We renovate and build across the City of Vancouver every week, from character homes in Kitsilano and Mount Pleasant to post-war houses in East Van and mid-century homes in Dunbar and Kerrisdale. Vancouver's older housing stock drives most of our work: bathroom and kitchen renovations, open-concept main-floor conversions, basement suite builds, and laneway houses on RS-zoned lots.

Bathroom and kitchen renovations are the most requested projects in Vancouver, and every project is permitted through the local building authority and inspected to code.

Renovating in Vancouver: local details

Typical housing stock
Vancouver has some of the oldest housing in the region. Pre-1940 character homes (Kits, Mount Pleasant, Grandview) often need full-gut renovations, knob-and-tube-era updates, and structural work. Post-war and mid-century homes across the east side and Dunbar are the most common candidates for kitchen and bathroom renovations, basement suite conversions, and laneway houses.
Permits & authority
Building, plumbing, electrical, and gas permits are issued by the City of Vancouver. Vancouver has its own building bylaw (separate from the BC Building Code) and one of the most permissive laneway-housing policies in Canada. We file all permits and coordinate inspections.
Scheduling
Same-week on-site consultations across Vancouver. Detailed itemized estimate within one week.

Vancouver renovation FAQ

How much does a bathroom renovation cost in Vancouver?
A bathroom renovation in Vancouver costs $8,000–$15,000 for a cosmetic refresh, $15,000–$35,000 for a standard full gut renovation, and $30,000–$65,000+ for a primary ensuite with walk-in shower, soaker tub, and heated floors. Older Vancouver homes often need full waterproofing to current code and drain replacement, which the original bathroom never had.
Do you handle City of Vancouver permits?
Yes. The City of Vancouver issues its own building, plumbing, electrical, and gas permits under the Vancouver Building Bylaw. We file all required permits and coordinate every inspection as part of the project contract, so you are not managing the city process yourself.
Can I build a laneway house on my Vancouver lot?
Most RS-zoned Vancouver lots with lane access are eligible for a laneway house. The lot generally needs to be at least 10m wide with a minimum area of 279 sq m, and the laneway house must be accessed from the lane. We assess your specific lot against current City of Vancouver zoning at no cost.
My Vancouver home is from the 1940s. Can it be fully renovated?
Yes, and it is one of the most common projects we do. Pre-1960 Vancouver homes usually need electrical, plumbing, and insulation brought to current code alongside the finish renovation. We often phase the work so one part of the home stays livable, and we handle the structural engineering for any wall removals or additions.
