Can you open up the floor plan of an older Vancouver home?

Yes, and it is one of the most common projects we take on in Vancouver. Many homes in Dunbar, Kitsilano and East Vancouver were built with small, closed-off rooms that made sense decades ago but feel cramped today. We assess which walls are load-bearing, bring in a structural engineer where required, and install proper beams and posts so the new open space is safe and to code. The result is a kitchen, dining and living area that finally connect. Because we manage the engineering, permits and finishing under one contract, you get one point of contact from first sketch to final coat of paint.

Heritage-sensitive interior work in character homes

Vancouver has some of the finest character housing in the region, and interiors in Kerrisdale, Kitsilano and Mount Pleasant often include original fir floors, plaster details and period trim worth keeping. Our approach is to preserve what gives the home its character while updating everything behind the walls. We can match existing baseboard and casing profiles, restore or replicate wainscoting, and blend new built-ins with the original millwork so additions look like they were always there. Where a property falls under City of Vancouver heritage considerations, we plan the scope carefully and handle the permit applications so the work proceeds without surprises.

Condo and strata interior renovations in Vancouver

A large share of Vancouver living happens in condos, and we renovate them regularly in Yaletown, Mount Pleasant and along the Cambie corridor. Strata renovations come with their own rules: alteration agreements, approved working hours, elevator bookings and protection of common areas. We prepare the documentation your strata council needs, schedule trades around building requirements, and keep hallways and elevators protected throughout. Whether it is a full-floor makeover of a two-bedroom unit or a reconfiguration that turns a cramped den into usable space, we plan the work so it moves quickly once approvals are in place. Costs vary by scope, and quotes are always free.

FAQ

Interior Renovations Questions in Vancouver

Do I need a permit to remove a wall in my Vancouver home?

If the wall is load-bearing or contains plumbing or electrical, the City of Vancouver requires a permit and usually engineered drawings. We confirm what the wall is doing before anything is opened up, arrange the engineering, and handle the permit application for you.

Can you renovate the interior of a character home without losing its charm?

Yes. We regularly work in Kitsilano and Dunbar homes where the goal is a modern layout with original details intact. We match trim profiles, save salvageable millwork, and design new built-ins to suit the era of the house.

Will my strata approve an interior renovation in my Yaletown condo?

Most stratas approve well-documented renovations. We supply the scope of work, insurance certificates and trade details your council asks for, and we follow the building's rules on hours, noise and elevator use throughout the project.

How disruptive is an open-concept conversion while we live in the home?

There is a stretch of demolition and structural work where dust and noise are unavoidable, and we contain it with sealed barriers and daily cleanup. Many Vancouver clients stay in the home for smaller projects, while full-floor makeovers sometimes make a short move worthwhile. We walk you through both options in the quote.
