PROJECT OVERVIEW
Full Home Renovation — Kerrisdale, West Side Vancouver
WEST SIDE, VANCOUVER, BC
Located between Kerrisdale and Shaughnessy, this West Side home underwent a complete transformation. The homeowners saw the potential — but knew the home needed significant work to truly support their family’s lifestyle. What followed was an eight-month renovation that reimagined every level, delivered on time, on budget, and with care.
Scope of the Home Renovation
This was a whole-home renovation — nothing was left untouched:
– Fully renovated basement
– Redesigned main floor with updated living and dining rooms
– Complete top floor renovation including all bedrooms
– Four bathrooms throughout
– Custom home gym
– Sauna and spa area for wellness and relaxation

Georgie Award Finalist
This project was recognized as a Georgie Award finalist — one of BC’s most respected honours in residential construction. The recognition reflects the quality of craftsmanship, the complexity of the scope, and the care taken throughout every phase of the build.
Delivered On Time. Every Promise Kept.
The renovation ran from March through mid-August — an accelerated eight-month schedule with a firm deadline. The family needed to be home before the end of summer.
Despite the complexity, the project was completed on time.
“It was an accelerated construction schedule, and there were moments where it looked difficult — but they pulled out all the stops and delivered on time.” — Homeowners, Kerrisdale
Why West Side Renovations Require Experience
Homes on Vancouver’s West Side come with unique challenges — older construction methods, complex layouts, strict permitting requirements, and tight timelines. Kerr Design Build’s deep experience with West Side renovations, combined with long-standing relationships with trusted trades, kept this project moving without compromising quality.
The Design-Build Advantage
One team handled everything — design, permits, construction management, and execution from start to finish. No separate firms. No coordination gaps. Communication ran through WhatsApp, email, and regular on-site meetings, with questions answered the same day.
This is what a fully integrated design-build process looks like in practice.
