Basement Renovation en Burnaby

Sobre Basement Renovation en Burnaby

An unfinished basement is wasted square footage sitting right below your feet. Whether you want a cozy family room, a home office, a rental suite for income, or an entertainment space with a wet bar, our team has completed basement renovations across Metro Vancouver in every configuration.

Basement suite conversions are our most requested basement project. Metro Vancouver's housing costs make secondary suites an excellent investment — a legal basement suite can generate $1,400–$2,200/month in rental income depending on your city and neighbourhood. We handle the entire process from initial design to final inspection, including permit applications, layout optimization, plumbing and electrical rough-in, HVAC separation, insulation, drywall, flooring, and finishing.

**What we typically include in a basement renovation:** - Moisture assessment and waterproofing (interior drainage, sump pump if needed) - Framing for rooms, closets, and mechanical chases - Electrical: panel upgrade if needed, circuits, outlets, lighting (recessed LED) - Plumbing: bathroom rough-in, kitchen/kitchenette connections, laundry hookups - HVAC: ductwork, heating, ventilation to BC Building Code standards - Insulation: rigid foam or batt insulation for thermal and sound control - Drywall installation and finishing - Flooring: LVP (luxury vinyl plank) is our most popular basement flooring — waterproof, warm underfoot, and durable - Trim, paint, doors, and hardware - Separate entrance construction (for secondary suites) - Egress windows to meet fire safety code

**Real project pricing from our portfolio:** - Basic basement finishing (rec room, bathroom, storage): $30,000–$45,000 - Full basement suite (1-bed, kitchen, bathroom, separate entrance): $40,000–$65,000 - Premium basement suite (2-bed, full kitchen, laundry, high-end finishes): $60,000–$85,000

Each municipality in Metro Vancouver has different secondary suite bylaws. Surrey and Langley are among the most permissive; Vancouver and Burnaby have specific zoning requirements; North Vancouver has additional flood-plain considerations. We know the rules for each city and ensure your suite passes inspection the first time.

Every basement renovation includes a 3-year workmanship warranty, transparent written quotes, and a dedicated project manager. Most basement projects are completed in 6–10 weeks.
