Oui. Nous gérons toutes les coordinations de strates dans le cadre de notre prestation. Cela inclut de vous aider à préparer la demande de rénovation (description de la portée, certificats d'assurance, liste des métiers), à planifier les travaux dans les heures de bruit approuvées, à réserver l'accès aux ascenseurs et à garantir que le nettoyage répond aux exigences des strates. Nous avons réalisé des rénovations dans des dizaines de bâtiments de Burnaby et comprenons parfaitement le processus.

In Burnaby's competitive SkyTrain-connected market, the highest-ROI pre-sale projects are kitchen cabinet refreshes paired with quartz countertops and a ducted range hood upgrade — particularly important for the large Chinese-Canadian buyer community around Metrotown who prioritize proper kitchen ventilation. A strategic investment of $15,000-$50,000 in kitchen and bathroom updates typically generates $30,000-$120,000 in additional sale proceeds, depending on the neighbourhood. Pre-sale renovated homes in Burnaby's $900K-$1.8M range sell 18-26 days faster than unrenovated equivalents. Fresh neutral paint and updated flooring complete the package without requiring a full gut renovation.

Choosing the right renovation contractor in Burnaby starts with verifying BC licensing. All contractors performing work over $1,000 must be registered with Consumer Protection BC. They should carry general liability insurance of at least $2 million per occurrence and WorkSafeBC coverage for all workers on your project — if an uninsured worker is injured on your property, you as the homeowner may be liable. Get at least 3 written quotes and compare them carefully: a lower quote often excludes permits, demolition, or disposal. Ask for references from 3-5 recent projects similar to yours in scope and location. Did the project finish on time and on budget? Were there surprise charges? Would they hire the contractor again? A real project portfolio with actual completed photos is a strong signal of credibility.

In Burnaby and across Metro Vancouver — where annual rainfall averages 1,155mm — moisture resistance is the most important flooring consideration. For most homes, LVP (luxury vinyl plank) is the practical winner: it's 100% waterproof, installs at $5-$10/sqft, and performs well in kitchens, basements, and ground-floor suites. Engineered hardwood ($9-$17/sqft installed) is better for main living areas where resale value and aesthetics are the priority — it handles humidity better than solid hardwood but still isn't recommended for basements or areas near exterior doors. Solid hardwood ($12-$21/sqft) is the prestige choice but worst for moisture and should be avoided in any room exposed to Vancouver's humidity. Laminate is the budget option for low-traffic dry areas but rarely recommended for Burnaby kitchens or main floors.
