Vancouver’s Best Home Builders & Interior Design Teams 2025

ByKerr Design Build April 21, 2025April 21, 2025

Kerr Design Build continues to be named as one of the best home builders by three review companies and included on a list of the best interior designers in Vancouver compiled by The Best Vancouver. We are also considered one of the four best basement renovation companies in Vancouver by Vancouver Digital Week.

TrustAnalytica ranks Kerr Design Build as #3 in the Top 10 Home Remodelling Contractors in Vancouver!

Best home builder!

Based on four criteria: scope of service provided, number of years in the business, number of awards, and customer satisfaction, The Best Vancouver staff chose Kerr Design Build as the #1 home builder in Vancouver.

As they write their review, Kerr Design Build is “one of the most trusted home builders in Vancouver when it comes to building homes from scratch. They handle the entire process: everything from building and interior design to permit acquisitions.”

Further, they point out that “you and other potential clients will want to see what the company has to offer. To help address that, Kerr included a massive gallery onto their website.

“You can see 3D renders, photos, and videos of numerous homes they have built and renovated in the past. 

“We like their collection of photos because they included more samples compared to other construction companies. 

“The best part about Kerr is the warranty that they provide. Their construction warranty is the longest in the business.”

Another review website, Three Best Rated, has also ranked Kerr one of the top three home builders in Vancouver.

They state about their process that “all selected custom home builders undergo our rigorous 50-Point Inspection, assessing reviews, reputation, history, price, proximity, and more to ensure excellence. No Pay-to-Play!”

We are gratified to be so highly thought of and rated!

TrustAnalytica writes about us: “In the top ten, “Kerr Design Build,” is ranked among the top ten due to their 30 years of experience. The company has received multiple awards, high-quality designs, and exceptional client service. Client reviews show that Kerr Design Build was project managers and the onsite team prioritized thorough communication, adapting to changes, and meeting tight deadlines. Merrily, they claim Kerr Design Build is very professional, detail-oriented, and committed to understanding its customers’ needs. The firm’s Design and Building framework helps with project staff communication and accountability. Various reviews indicate that the company successfully delivers on time and with high-quality workmanship.”

Vancouver Digital Week describes Kerr Design Build as a “premier renovation company that has been serving Vancouver homeowners for over 30 years. They specialize in basement renovations, offering personalized design solutions and top-notch construction services. Kerr Design Build is committed to delivering exceptional results that enhance both the functionality and aesthetic appeal of your basement.”

Great design team!

Ranking as one of the best interior designers is a testament to the quality of our Kerr Design team, led by our fantastic design manager Nisha MacNeil.

The inclusions are not a paid endorsement but the result of research done by The Best Vancouver staff, who “when we choose products and services to review, we conduct research to find out who the market leaders are, and why they’re the market leaders.”

“Have so many awards!”

The Best Vancouver wrote: Kerr Design Build “has over 30 years of experience designing and building dream homes all over the greater Vancouver area.  Over its long service life, this company has also won multiple awards for new builds and renovations alike.

“Among the firm’s recognitions are a National Sam Award from the Canadian Home Builders’ Association, and several Georgie awards for excellence in homebuilding. 

“As further proof of capability, this firm is also fully licensed with the  Provincial Homeowner Protection Office.

“The reason these folks have so many awards is partially their large team of closely linked designers and contractors.  By merging these two bodies, designs can be brought to life with serious attention to every minute detail.

“The other half of the firm’s success is owed to the Kerr Design Build system, which pairs clients with a rep who takes them through every aspect of their construction project.  Ultimately, this helps avoid cost overruns, extended schedules, and a lack of accountability.”

We look forward to helping you design your perfect home renovation, addition or custom home!
