A home addition in Burnaby lets you expand your living space on the lot you already own — adding square footage, bedrooms, or a second storey without the disruption and cost of moving. Speera Custom Homes plans, permits, and builds home additions across Greater Vancouver with the structural expertise and trade coordination these projects demand.
Speera Custom Homes builds custom homes, duplexes, and multiplexes across Burnaby, and provides full renovation services for existing homes. We're familiar with Burnaby's R1, R2, and R3 zones, the city's SSMUH implementation, and its specific multiplex and duplex design requirements — including unit count, parking, and lot coverage rules that vary from neighbouring municipalities.

Home Addition in Burnaby: What to Know
Under BC's Bill 44 (SSMUH), most Burnaby single-family lots now allow 4–6 units as of right. The City of Burnaby has updated its zoning bylaw to align with the provincial minimums and continues to permit secondary suites and coach houses on most residential lots, alongside its own multiplex and duplex design guidelines.
Burnaby's diverse neighbourhoods — from Capitol Hill to Metrotown — offer strong opportunities for custom home construction, multiplex and duplex infill development, and whole-home renovation. Burnaby's central location, SkyTrain access, and strong rental demand make multi-unit construction especially attractive on qualifying lots.
We work throughout Burnaby, including: Capitol Hill, Brentwood, Metrotown, Deer Lake, Burnaby Heights, Edmonds, Highgate, Sullivan Heights. View all Burnaby services →
