What we build in Richmond
New Residential Construction
The complete process of building a home from the ground up: planning, site preparation, foundation, framing, mechanical systems, inspections and final finishes.
Custom Home Builds
Homes built to your drawings, with one point of contact responsible for trades, sequencing and quality control throughout.
Home Renovations & Remodels
Kitchens, bathrooms and whole-home interiors, planned around how you live in the house while the work is underway.
Additions & Extensions
Extra space added to an existing home: structurally sound, properly tied in, and detailed so the addition reads as original.
Basement Finishing & Suites
Finished lower levels and legal suites, built to code with the separations, egress and services the permit requires.
Permit & Design Coordination
Drawings, consultants and municipal approvals managed on your behalf so the build starts without avoidable delay.
Laneway Homes, Garden Suites & Multiplexes
Laneway homes, garden suites and multiplexes, from finding out what your lot allows to the drawings, permits and the build itself.
Building in Richmond
Much of Richmond sits on a flood plain, and the City’s Flood Plain Designation and Protection Bylaw sets a minimum height for habitable floors in new homes, known as the flood construction level. The level for a particular property comes from the City, so we check it before design starts.
Building permits are issued by the City of Richmond under the BC Building Code, and BC’s small-scale multi-unit housing rules apply to its single-family lots too.

Building in Richmond: common questions
Does Richmond’s flood plain affect a new home?
Yes. The City sets a minimum floor height for habitable rooms in new homes, and it varies by property, so it’s checked before design.
Do you build in Richmond?
Yes. Richmond is one of the cities we work in, along with Vancouver, Surrey, Burnaby, Coquitlam and the rest of the Lower Mainland.
Can you renovate or add onto an older Richmond home?
Yes. Renovations and additions are two of our seven services.
