Condo Renovation Contractor in the Lower Mainland
We handle condo renovation in Vancouver and across the Lower Mainland, managing your strata approvals, building logistics, and the full remodel under one accountable team and a clear, fixed price.
We Handle Your Building, So You Don't Have To
Renovating in a condo means answering to more than your own plans. There's a strata to satisfy, a building to coordinate with, and a long list of rules that can stall a project before it starts. We've managed enough condo remodels across the Lower Mainland to make that the easy part. From the first approval to the final clean-up, we handle everything your building requires so you can focus on the renovation itself, not the paperwork and logistics behind it.
Strata Approval, Handled
We prepare and submit everything your strata needs to approve the work, then handle the back-and-forth so your project gets the green light without you chasing it.
Building Logistics, Managed
Service elevator bookings, loading access, and material delivery are coordinated with building management on your behalf, so the trades show up when they're allowed and the work keeps moving.
Good Standing With Neighbours
We keep the work within permitted hours and manage noise and disruption carefully, so your renovation never makes you the unit the rest of the building is complaining about.
Your Building, Protected
We protect lobbies, hallways, and shared spaces throughout the job and carry the insurance and compliance documentation your building requires, so there are no surprises with management partway through.
How We Renovate
Your Condo
Every strata renovation we take on moves through three clear phases, each managed by the same accountable team from first approval to final key. Rather than juggling separate designers, trades, and building managers, you move through design, approvals, and construction as one continuous path, with the strata and building logistics handled along the way.
Designed for your unit
Designing within your building's rules
A condo renovation is shaped by more than your taste, it's shaped by what your building allows. We design around your strata's rules and your unit's structure, making the most of the space within them.
Discovery consultation
We start by understanding how you want your unit to work and live, the conversation that shapes everything after it.
Unit & building assessment
We review what can and can't change, plumbing stacks, structure, and your strata's bylaws, so the design is grounded in what's actually possible.
Preliminary budgeting
We align the scope of your remodel with your investment range up front, so the design is one you can actually build.
Design & layout
We plan the layout and flow to maximize a smaller footprint, working within the fixed points your unit can't change.
Interior design & selections
We finalize layouts and every material decision, from cabinetry to fixtures, so the renovation is fully specified before pricing is locked.
Approved, priced, ready
Strata approval & your fixed price
Nothing starts in a condo until the building signs off, so this phase is where most of the real work happens. We handle strata approval and permits, coordinate the building logistics, and lock your price before work begins.
Strata approval & permits
We prepare and submit everything your strata and the city require, and manage the approvals so you're not chasing sign-off.
Building logistics & compliance
We arrange elevator bookings, work-hour windows, and the insurance and documentation your building requires before a single tool comes in.
Fixed-price renovation agreement
With design and scope finalized, we issue your complete renovation price and build agreement. Your price is locked here, before we begin.
From approval to keys
Renovating cleanly, start to finish
In the final phase we manage the entire renovation to the standard the drawings promise, work respectfully within your building, and hand over a finished unit you understand completely. Renovating in an occupied building takes care, and we plan for it.
Construction
We manage scheduling, trade coordination, inspections, and quality control, keeping the work within your building's permitted hours and rules.
Protecting common areas
We protect lobbies, hallways, and elevators throughout the job, keeping disruption to your neighbours and the building to a minimum.
Progress updates
You receive regular updates throughout the renovation, with clear visibility into where your unit stands and what comes next.
Final walkthrough & warranty
We walk the finished unit with you in detail, review every finish, then hand over with full warranty documentation.
Why Renovate Your Condo With Embark Homes
A condo renovation lives or dies on the details, and the right team is the difference between a smooth strata-approved remodel and a stalled one. We start with how you actually use your space, then design and build around it, working cleanly within your building from the first approval to the final walkthrough.
Designed Around You
Every layout, material, and detail is chosen to suit how you live in your unit, not pulled from a catalogue of stock plans. Smaller footprints reward smart design, and that's where we focus.
Fixed-Price Contract
Your price is locked before we begin, so the full cost of your condo renovation is clear from the outset with no mid-project surprises.
One Point of Contact
A single dedicated team manages design, trades, timeline, and your building's requirements from start to finish, so you always know where things stand.

Our portfolio shows what thoughtful design and disciplined building look like once a space is finished and lived in. Each project below was shaped around a distinct space, owner, and goal, then delivered with the same care we bring to every condo remodel and full custom build.

We Renovate Condos Across the Lower Mainland
We take on condo renovations in Vancouver and throughout the Lower Mainland, where strata buildings and high-rises make up so much of the housing. Because every building and strata runs its own rules, we know the approval processes, elevator and access logistics, and bylaws that shape a renovation in each of these communities:
