Modern appliances
Smart refrigerators and ovens add high-tech convenience to your kitchen. Cabinet-fronted refrigerators and dishwashers give your kitchen an open, inviting look while keeping your style consistent throughout the room.
Wine fridges

Water filtration system
Get fresh, clean drinking water on command with an installed water filtration system. Save money on bottled water and save space compared to filter jugs.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do home renovations require a building permit?
Depending on the scope and type of your renovation, you may need building permits. We have over 35 years of experience in building and renovating in the Okanagan, and can guide you through the permit process. We ensure that all needed permits are obtained for your custom renovation.
Can you claim home renovations or improvements on your taxes in Canada?
Renovations made to improve mobility and safety for seniors and people with disabilities can often qualify for a tax credit. A meeting with a tax professional is the best way to establish if your renovation will qualify you for a tax break.
What is the most profitable home renovation?
In terms of resale value, our clients usually see the most benefit from kitchen upgrades, flooring updates, new roofing, and new siding. However, the exact return on any project is subject to the market conditions and buyer priorities. As a general rule, though, investing in your kitchen is a sound idea.
Do home renovations come with warranty?
We offer renovation warranties on all contractor supplied work and materials (in conjunction with the manufacturer’s warranties) for a period of one year.
What green renovations will improve the efficiency of my house?
We offer many renovation and upgrade types that can improve the efficiency of your home. From new windows and doors to Energy Star appliances, we can make the most cost-effective recommendations for your situation.
