Surrey's Own Renovation Company

As a Surrey-based contractor, we take pride in serving our home community. Surrey is one of the fastest-growing cities in BC, with diverse housing from the heritage homes of Cloverdale to the new builds of South Surrey and the family neighbourhoods of Newton and Fleetwood. Our local knowledge means we understand Surrey's building codes, soil conditions, and the specific challenges and opportunities of renovating in each neighbourhood.

Your Fleetwood-Based General Contractor

Our shop is on Fleetwood Way, which puts us minutes from Guildford, Newton, and Surrey City Centre and within a short drive of every Surrey neighbourhood. That proximity matters in practical ways: consultations get scheduled within days, crews arrive on time, and if something needs a second look after your project wraps up, we are nearby. Many general contractors serve Surrey from across the river. We live and work here, our suppliers are here, and our reputation is built on Surrey referrals from Surrey homeowners.

Basement Suites and Home Additions in Surrey

Basement suites are one of our specialties, and Surrey is one of the best cities in Metro Vancouver to build one. A legal secondary suite adds rental income and long-term value, but it has to meet City of Surrey requirements for ceiling heights, egress windows, fire separation, parking, and separate ventilation. We manage the whole process, from design and permits through construction and final inspection. For growing families who need space above ground, we build home additions and extensions from $200 to $400 per square foot, matched carefully to your existing structure and finishes.

Renovating Surrey's Housing Stock

Surrey's homes span every era, and each one renovates differently. Older homes in Whalley, Newton, and Bridgeview often need electrical, plumbing, and insulation upgrades alongside the visible work, while newer builds in Clayton, Grandview Heights, and Morgan Creek are usually about customization: better kitchens, finished basements, and outdoor living. Kitchen renovations in Surrey typically range from $25,000 to $80,000 and bathroom renovations from $15,000 to $50,000 depending on scope and materials. Whatever the age of your home, we start with an honest assessment of what it needs and a transparent itemized quote.

Surrey Building Permits, Handled

The City of Surrey requires permits for structural work, secondary suites, additions, and most plumbing and electrical changes. We prepare the drawings and applications, coordinate structural engineering when a project calls for it, and schedule every city inspection. Homeowners who have tried to navigate permits alone know how much time this saves. Your project stays legal, insured, and on schedule, and you never have to stand in line at city hall.

Commercial and Handyman Work in Surrey

Homes are most of what we do, but not all of it. Surrey businesses hire us for office improvements, retail fit-outs, and restaurant renovations, and we phase commercial work around operating hours so you do not lose revenue during construction. On the other end of the scale, our handyman services cover the small jobs that are hard to find a reliable contractor for: drywall repairs, door and window replacement, deck and fence repairs, and general maintenance. If you own property in Surrey, residential or commercial, large project or small, one call covers it.

Surrey Communities We Serve

We serve every corner of Surrey, including Guildford, Newton, Fleetwood, Cloverdale, South Surrey, Whalley, City Centre, Panorama Ridge, Sullivan, Fraser Heights, Bear Creek, and Bridgeview. From small handyman repairs to major home renovations, we are always just minutes away.
