We Work Across Both
North Vancouver Municipalities
City of North Vancouver
Covers the denser corridor along Burrard Inlet — Lower Lonsdale, Central Lonsdale, Moodyville, and the waterfront. Many condos built in the 1960s–1980s are due for a full bathroom gut renovation. CNV permits typically issue faster than DNV.
Poly-B plumbing (1978–1995) is common in Lonsdale corridor condos — we identify and replace it during renovation.District of North Vancouver
Covers Edgemont, Capilano, Lynn Valley, Deep Cove, Blueridge, Windsor Park, Seymour, Calverhall, and Pemberton Heights. Larger post-and-beam homes from the 1960s–1970s. Ensuites and master bathrooms are the most common renovation scope. DNV uses e-Apply and may require additional review time for structural or plumbing changes.
Strata Bathrooms in North Vancouver
Strata corporations require a renovation request with a contractor’s certificate of insurance, WorkSafeBC clearance letter, scope of work, and waterproofing assurance. We provide all documentation and coordinate strata approvals on your behalf.

Bathroom Types We Renovate
in North Vancouver
We renovate all bathroom types across North Vancouver residential properties — from quick powder room refreshes in Lynn Valley and Edgemont to full master ensuite rebuilds in DNV single-family homes and strata-approved condo renovations in the CNV Lonsdale corridor.
Master Ensuite Renovation
The most popular renovation scope in North Vancouver District single-family homes. Full gut renovation covering all surfaces and fixtures — expect 3–5 weeks construction after permits are issued.
Main Bathroom Renovation
Standard 4-piece bathroom — tub/shower combo, toilet, vanity, and sometimes a second sink. Full gut renovation covering all surfaces, fixtures, and waterproofing. Condo refreshes with no plumbing relocation also available.
Powder Room Renovation
Two-piece bathroom — toilet and sink only. Popular in Lynn Valley and Edgemont Village homes where a quick, high-impact update adds resale value. Typically completes in 3–5 days. Rarely requires a permit unless plumbing is moved.
Condo Bathroom Renovation
Condo bathrooms in the City of North Vancouver Lonsdale corridor require strata approval before work begins. We provide all documentation required by your strata council and deliver a waterproofing certificate on completion.
Basement & Secondary Suite Bathrooms
Secondary suite bathroom additions in the District of North Vancouver are subject to BC Building Code requirements and DNV permit approval. We design and build to full code compliance — egress, ventilation, and waterproofing included.
Accessible & Aging-in-Place Bathroom
Renovation — North Vancouver
North Vancouver's demographics include a significant and growing population of homeowners planning to age in place — particularly in the District's larger single-family homes in Lynn Valley, Edgemont, and Deep Cove. We design and build accessible bathrooms that meet BC Building Code accessibility standards without sacrificing the spa-inspired aesthetic the North Shore is known for.
Curbless Walk-In Showers
No threshold, linear drain, barrier-free entry. Meets mobility aid requirements and is the dominant 2026 North Vancouver bathroom trend.
Grab Bars & Safety Rails
Professionally anchored to blocking installed in walls. Available in brushed nickel, matte black, and chrome to match your fixtures.
Comfort-Height Toilets
17–19 inch seat height vs standard 15 inches. Easier standing and sitting. ADA compliant.
Non-Slip Tile Flooring
Textured porcelain and natural stone with high coefficient of friction for wet areas.
Wider Doorways
32–36 inch clear opening for wheelchair and walker access. Requires a permit for structural work.
Bench Seating in Showers
Built-in tile benches or fold-down teak benches for seated showering.
Handheld Shower Heads
Adjustable-height slide bar with handheld wand for comfortable seated use.
Lever-Handle Faucets
Easier to operate than round knob faucets for limited grip strength.
Federal Tax Credits for Accessibility Renovations
Homeowners in North Vancouver may qualify for two federal tax credits: the Home Accessibility Tax Credit (HATC) — up to $3,000 in tax credit on $20,000 of eligible accessibility renovation expenses per year — and the Multigenerational Home Renovation Tax Credit (MHRTC) for secondary suite additions. Ask at your free in-home consultation and we will identify which expenses qualify for your project.

Do I need a permit for a bathroom renovation in North Vancouver?
Cosmetic work — tile replacement, vanity swap, fixture upgrade — typically does not require a permit. Plumbing relocation, structural changes, electrical upgrades, and adding a new bathroom do. We handle all permit applications to the City of North Vancouver (CNV) on your behalf and ensure compliance with BC Building Code.
How long does a bathroom renovation take in North Vancouver?
A powder room refresh typically takes 3–5 days. A standard full bathroom renovation takes 2–4 weeks. A luxury master ensuite renovation takes 4–8 weeks. Permit processing adds 2–5 weeks before construction begins for scopes requiring approval. We provide a realistic week-by-week timeline before any work starts.
Do you handle strata approval for North Vancouver condo bathroom renovations?
Yes. We provide all documentation required by North Vancouver strata councils — contractor certificate of insurance, WorkSafeBC clearance letter, scope of work, and waterproofing assurance. Plan for 2–4 weeks for strata approval before permits can be applied for.
Can you renovate bathrooms for accessibility and aging in place?
Yes — it is one of our most requested renovation types in North Vancouver. We design and build curbless walk-in showers, grab bar installations, comfort-height toilets, non-slip flooring, and wider doorways. These features can be designed to look like luxury spa elements rather than medical equipment. We also provide itemized invoices for federal Home Accessibility Tax Credit (HATC) filing.
Do you offer financing for North Vancouver bathroom renovations?
Yes. Three plans through Financeit — covering materials and installation together on one financed amount. Subject to approval. Discuss at your free in-home consultation.
