What should I look for when choosing a custom home builder in Vancouver?

Look for a builder with a strong local track record, proper licensing and insurance, transparent communication, and experience navigating your municipality's permitting process. Ask for references, visit completed projects, and make sure you feel comfortable with how they communicate.

Do you handle permits and municipal approvals in Greater Vancouver?

Yes. Speera Custom Homes manages the entire permitting process for all municipalities we serve, including Vancouver, Richmond, Burnaby, and other Greater Vancouver municipalities. This includes building permits, development permits, engineering requirements, and all municipal approvals.

Can I build a duplex or multiplex on my lot in Vancouver?

Many lots across Greater Vancouver now allow for duplex or multiplex construction thanks to evolving zoning bylaws. Whether your lot qualifies depends on its zoning, size, and location. Speera Custom Homes assesses your property's potential during a free consultation.

What is the difference between a custom home and a spec home?

A spec home is built by a developer based on their design choices, then sold on the open market. A custom home is designed and built specifically for you — every layout decision, material selection, and finish reflects your lifestyle and preferences.

What neighbourhoods in Greater Vancouver do you build in?

Speera Custom Homes builds throughout Greater Vancouver including Vancouver (Shaughnessy, Kerrisdale, Kitsilano, Point Grey, Dunbar, Cambie), Richmond (Steveston, Terra Nova, Broadmoor), Burnaby (Capitol Hill, Metrotown, Brentwood), and across North Vancouver, West Vancouver, Coquitlam, Surrey, and more.

FAQ

Kitchen Renovation Questions Answered

Cosmetic renovations (new cabinets, countertops, paint) typically don't require permits. However, any work involving plumbing relocation, electrical panel changes, gas lines, or structural wall removal requires a permit. We handle all permit applications when they're needed.

Absolutely. Many of our kitchen renovations keep the same footprint but replace everything else — cabinets, countertops, backsplash, flooring, and fixtures. This approach is often faster and more budget-friendly while still delivering a dramatic transformation.

We offer design consultation as part of the renovation process and work with experienced kitchen designers. If you already have a design or are working with an interior designer, we're happy to execute their plans. We can also connect you with trusted designers we've collaborated with on past projects.
