& Multi-Unit Construction in BC
Building excellence across BC’s most demanding terrain. From luxury mountain homes in Whistler to multi-unit construction in Squamish, we bring methodical planning and proven expertise to every project
Our Approach
Expert Construction Across Mountain & Coastal Terrain
Excellence in construction starts well before breaking ground. Our planning process ensures clear budgets, realistic timelines, and seamless execution – whether we’re building on Whistler’s slopes or Gibsons’ shoreline.
Our experience shows that thorough pre-construction planning can substantially reduce overall project costs.
Building Process
Construction Process for Custom Homes & Multi-Unit Projects
Preliminary Phase
(2-4 Weeks)
Mountain and coastal construction demands careful preparation. During this initial phase, we assess site conditions, review design concepts, and outline clear project parameters. For multi-unit construction, we analyze everything from zoning requirements to value engineering opportunities.
- Site-specific feasibility assessment
- Preliminary budget framework
- Design concept evaluation
- Stakeholder alignment
Construction Phase
(12-24 Months)
Execution is where experience proves its worth. Our systematic approach ensures quality at every step, whether managing complex foundation work in mountain terrain or coordinating coastal construction requirements.
- Daily site supervision
- Quality control protocols
- Regular progress updates
- Budget monitoring
- Trade coordination
- Municipal inspections

Pre-Construction Phase
Thorough planning prevents costly surprises. Whether we’re building a custom home in Whistler or a multi-unit construction in Squamish, our pre-construction process creates a comprehensive roadmap for success.
- Detailed scope documentation
- Final budget development
- Construction timeline
- Trade coordination strategy
- Permit acquisition plan
Completion Phase
(Final 2 Months)
The final phase focuses on perfecting details and ensuring longevity. Our thorough completion process includes comprehensive testing, detailed documentation, and clear operational training.
- Systems commissioning
- Detailed inspections
- Deficiency resolution
- Documentation handover
- Occupancy certification

frequently asked questions
Expert Insights on Building in Sea to Sky & Sunshine Coast
How long does it take to build a custom home in Whistler?
Mountain construction typically spans 12-24 months, depending on site complexity and seasonal conditions. Our pre-construction planning helps prevent weather-related delays and ensures realistic timelines.
What's involved in pre-construction planning for multi-unit construction?
Pre-construction for 4-6 unit developments includes comprehensive zoning analysis, engineering assessments, and permitting.
What are the specific challenges of building in Squamish?
Squamish’s terrain requires specialized expertise in site preparation and foundation work. We’ve developed specific protocols for managing mountain slopes, groundwater, and local building requirements.
How do you handle coastal construction requirements?
Building on the Sunshine Coast demands careful attention to moisture management and material selection. Our experience in the Sunshine Coast areas has refined our approach to coastal construction challenges.
What makes your pre-construction process valuable?
Our thorough pre-construction phase typically saves a significant percentage of overall project costs through careful planning, and risk mitigation. This upfront investment pays dividends throughout construction.
How do you manage construction in different weather conditions?
We build year-round, adapting our schedule to account for seasonal conditions. Our experience in both mountain and coastal environments means we can plan effectively for weather-related challenges.
