Good to know

Questions, answered honestly.

Everything people ask before building with us — timelines, money, permits and what happens when surprises show up.

The basics

Getting started

Across Greater Vancouver — Vancouver, Burnaby, Richmond, North and West Vancouver, Coquitlam, New Westminster and Surrey. Nearby? Ask — we take select projects further afield.

Nothing. Your first consultation and feasibility review are free, with no obligation — you'll leave with real answers either way.

Absolutely. We'll price and build from your existing drawings, or collaborate directly with your designer.

Yes — development and building permits end-to-end, including laneway and duplex approvals, plus rezoning advice during feasibility.

Money & contracts

Cost, pricing and payment

We recommend fixed-price for most residential projects — with a full line-item scope before signing so you can compare confidently.

Milestone-based draws tied to completed work, laid out in your contract from day one — never large sums up front.

It varies with site, structure and finishes — you'll get a range grounded in your actual lot at feasibility, before spending anything on design.

Changes only happen through written change orders you approve first, with cost and schedule impact stated up front. On renovations, we investigate before pricing so surprises are priced before they're surprises.

The build

Timelines, warranty and after

Typically 4–8 months for design and permits, then 10–14 months of construction. You'll get a realistic schedule at feasibility — and weekly updates on site.

A dedicated project manager sends weekly reports with photos, decisions needed and budget status — and you can call them directly.

New homes include 2-5-10 coverage: two years labour and materials, five on the envelope, ten on structure. Renovations carry our workmanship warranty.

Full documentation, maintenance guidance and warranty support — and when you call, the people who built your home answer.
