Westcove Renovation, the Richmond renovation contractor, is your Steveston renovation contractor too, handling home renovations, home remodels and full house renovations across Steveston. Few parts of Richmond mix housing like Steveston does: older homes close to the village and the dyke, established family houses and split-levels on the residential streets, newer infill homes on narrower lots, and townhomes near the waterfront. Every Steveston home renovation we take on is planned around the house you actually have, whether you need more space for a growing family, a suite, or a kitchen and bathrooms that finally work.
Our Steveston renovation services include kitchen renovations with smarter storage and stone counters; bathroom renovations with waterproofed showers and heated floors; suite renovations; rear and second-storey home additions; custom homes on Steveston lots; and commercial renovations for village shops, studios and offices. Each Steveston remodel replaces tired plumbing and wiring while the walls are open and uses finishes built to last.
Inside the Steveston Village Heritage Conservation Area, exterior changes need a City of Richmond Heritage Alteration Permit, while interior-only work does not. As a full-service Steveston renovation company we check that first, price the work line by line, handle drawings and permits, and keep the site tidy. Start with a free Steveston renovation estimate and a straight answer on cost and timing.

A variety of styles, achievable by our team with ease.
Warm contemporary renovations in Steveston pair natural wood, soft whites and clean lines with the village’s relaxed feel.
West Coast Modern Steveston renovations use timber, stone and big windows to bring the river light and greenery inside.
Contemporary luxury in a Steveston home blends classic proportions with modern comfort, quality finishes and lasting value.
A Steveston renovation has to stand up to more than daily life. Homes close to the river and the dyke see more moisture, wind-driven rain and damp crawlspaces than houses further inland, so we plan every renovation around keeping water out and air moving before a single finish is chosen.
Our approach starts with a careful look at what the house already has: the foundation, the framing, the roof and envelope, and the plumbing, wiring and ventilation hidden behind the walls. Problems found early are cheaper to fix and easier to plan around.
Whether we are updating an older family home near the village, reworking a split-level on a residential street, or finishing a newer infill house, every Steveston renovation is built with long-term durability and everyday function in mind.
Construction is managed carefully from demolition to final finishing. Materials are chosen for how they perform in a damp coastal climate as well as how they look, and installations are checked for alignment, sealing and consistency.
We believe quality comes from consistency. Waterproofing, flashing, lighting, finish transitions and cabinetry alignment are reviewed again and again until the renovation feels complete.
From heritage-area homes to modern remodels across Steveston, our goal is simple: renovations that look right, perform reliably and keep adding value for years.

Some of our Home renovation work and inspiration to help you create a vision.
Great Steveston renovations still feel right years after the crews leave. Our design approach respects the scale and character of the neighbourhood while giving you a home that is brighter, more open and easier to live in.
Every project begins with how you actually use the house: where the light comes in, where the family gathers, where storage runs out and which rooms never quite work. We design around those routines rather than around trends.
Inside the Steveston Village Heritage Conservation Area, the outside of a home is part of the streetscape, so exterior changes go through a Heritage Alteration Permit. Interiors are yours to rethink, and that is often where the biggest improvements happen.
Layouts are developed to improve how rooms connect, open sightlines to the yard and make kitchens and living spaces work together. Flooring, cabinetry, lighting and trim are chosen as one palette so the whole home feels consistent.
We value restraint and proportion over unnecessary complexity. Durable finishes and timeless details keep a Steveston renovation looking current long after completion.
The result is a Steveston home that supports everyday life, fits its street and holds its value.
Most renovation stress comes from vague quotes, crews that disappear for a week, and surprise extras on the final invoice. Westcove Renovation fixes that for Steveston homeowners. Every Steveston home renovation gets a written scope, a firm timeline, payments released only as work is completed, and a single contact who answers the phone, from your first estimate through the final walkthrough.
Steveston streets are close-knit and parking near the village is tight, so our Steveston renovation crews plan deliveries, keep materials on your lot instead of the road, and respect quiet hours. For townhome and strata remodels we get approvals in writing, protect common areas and keep neighbours informed. Close to the river and the dyke we pay extra attention to moisture, drainage and ventilation, because a damp crawlspace shortens the life of any renovation.
Inside every Steveston kitchen renovation, bathroom remodel and suite, we do the work you never see: proper waterproofing behind every tile, updated electrical panels and new circuits, correctly vented bathrooms and range hoods, insulation where older homes had little, and framing checked straight before finishes go on.
That is how a Steveston home renovation keeps looking good years after we hand back the keys. If anything needs attention later, you call the same Steveston renovation team that built it, and we fix it.

Answers to the questions Steveston homeowners ask us the most about renovation costs, heritage permits, additions, townhomes and timelines. If you don’t see yours, just contact our team.
Steveston renovation costs depend on the size of the space, whether walls or plumbing move, the age of the house, permits and the finishes you choose. A bathroom refresh and a whole-home Steveston renovation sit at very different price points, so we visit, measure, and give you a written line-item estimate.
Only for some work. Inside the Steveston Village Heritage Conservation Area, exterior changes such as additions, alterations or repainting need a City of Richmond Heritage Alteration Permit. Interior-only renovations do not. We confirm what applies to your address before design starts.
Often, yes. We check zoning, setbacks, the existing foundation and framing, and any heritage-area rules, then tell you plainly what your Steveston house can support, whether that is a second storey, a rear addition or a suite.
Yes. Steveston townhouse and strata renovations are a big part of our work. We get strata approval in writing, book loading and parking times, protect shared areas and keep noisy work inside permitted hours for neighbours’ sake.
A Steveston bathroom renovation takes three to five weeks once all materials arrive, and a kitchen renovation runs six to ten weeks, depending on cabinets, layout changes and inspections. Your written renovation schedule shows each phase.
Steveston house renovations, home remodeling, kitchen and bathroom renovations, suites and additions, planned carefully and built with pride.
