Opening Up a Load-Bearing Wall in a Vancouver Home: What’s Involved
Opening up the wall between the kitchen and dining room to create an open-concept space is the single most-requested renovation…
Renew Co Contracting handles kitchen, bathroom, basement, condo and full home renovations across Metro Vancouver — with the discipline of a contractor who'd rather do one thing right than ten things quickly.
Six specialties. One disciplined process. Every project handled by a small, accountable team — no subcontracting chains, no surprises on invoice day.
Most renovation horror stories trace back to a single failure: the person who sold you the project isn't the person who runs it. We do it differently.
One project lead — yours from estimate through final walkthrough. WorkSafeBC-licensed crews, $5M liability coverage, BC-incorporated business (BC1523672), and a fixed scope you sign before we open a wall. No subcontracting chains. No surprise charges on invoice day.
We don't take on more work than we can run well. That's why our calendar fills early — and why our clients keep referring us.
Every project follows the same disciplined sequence. You'll always know what's happening, what's next, and what it costs.
We visit, measure, and listen. You tell us what you want. We tell you what's possible — including the things that could go sideways if not handled right.
Detailed scope, line-item budget, fixed timeline. You approve in writing before we order materials. No "best estimate" theatre.
One project lead on-site daily. Weekly progress updates. Subtrades managed by us, not by you. Clean site, every day.
Final inspection together. Punch list completed within five business days. One-year warranty on workmanship, written, signed, delivered.
From our base in Vancouver, we work across the Lower Mainland — typically within an hour's drive of our shop.
