Luxury kitchen and bathroom renovations in West Vancouver, designed for upscale waterfront and hillside homes.

Sobre Basement Renovation en West Vancouver

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.

Luxury bathroom renovations are our signature West Vancouver service.

Kitchen renovations in West Vancouver often involve opening up floor plans to capture ocean and mountain views. We regularly remove or modify load-bearing walls (with engineer-stamped designs), install floor-to-ceiling windows, and create dramatic open-concept kitchens with waterfall islands, integrated appliance columns, and custom cabinetry in premium finishes. Our West Vancouver kitchen projects typically range from $29,000 to $75,000 depending on scope and materials.

The District of West Vancouver's building department has specific requirements for hillside construction, drainage management, and tree preservation that affect renovation projects. We are familiar with the permit process and maintain strong relationships with local inspectors. For properties in the British Properties or other areas with restrictive covenants, we ensure all renovations comply with both municipal requirements and community guidelines.

West Vancouver's older homes — many built in the 1960s–70s as modernist masterpieces by architects like Arthur Erickson and Ron Thom — present exciting restoration opportunities. We've refreshed mid-century modern homes with period-appropriate materials while adding contemporary comfort: updated insulation, new windows that match the original proportions, and modern mechanical systems hidden within the original design.

Our 3D rendering service helps West Vancouver homeowners visualize their renovation before construction begins. We create photorealistic renderings of kitchens, bathrooms, and living spaces so you can see exactly how materials and layouts will look in your home. Every project includes a 3-year workmanship warranty and a detailed written quote.
