divider

Total Renovations is a licensed general contractor in Delta BC delivering full-service custom home renovation and construction management across all three of Delta's distinct communities — Ladner, Tsawwassen, and North Delta — since 2011. As your general contractor in Delta, we manage the complete renovation scope under one fixed price: design coordination, Corporation of Delta permit applications, trade scheduling and coordination across all disciplines, all field inspections, and final occupancy sign-off. One point of accountability. One price. One warranty covering every scope.

Delta is one of Metro Vancouver's most geographically and culturally distinctive municipalities — and its three communities present genuinely different renovation contexts that reward general contractors with specific local knowledge. Ladner is Delta's historic village core, built on the rich agricultural land of the Fraser River delta and known for its heritage character, established residential streets, and the river-adjacent properties that give the community its special identity. Tsawwassen, at the southwestern tip of the municipality, offers oceanfront and Boundary Bay proximity, the Tsawwassen Ferry Terminal, and a real estate market that responds strongly to the lifestyle premium of living at the edge of the Strait of Georgia. North Delta, on the slope rising from the Fraser Valley toward Burnaby Mountain, is Delta's most suburban community — family-oriented, with a housing stock concentrated in the 1970s through 1990s and a growing renovation market as those homes approach the age where comprehensive updates add the most value.

As a full-service general contractor serving Delta since 2011, Total Renovations has delivered renovation projects across all three of these community contexts — character home renovations in Ladner that respect the village's heritage aesthetic while delivering modern performance, kitchen and bathroom upgrades in Tsawwassen that maximise natural light and coastal character, and multi-room renovations and secondary suite conversions in North Delta that compete effectively with the area's growing new-build inventory. That 15-year breadth of Delta experience means we understand which renovation approach, which material standard, and which Corporation of Delta permit process applies to your specific property and community.

General Contracting & Construction Services
in Delta BC

As a full-service general contractor in Delta, Total Renovations manages every category of residential renovation — across all three of Delta's communities — under one fixed-price contract, one Corporation of Delta permit application, and one project manager responsible for every trade and inspection.

kitchen renovation delta bc
Kitchen Renovation Delta BC
Kitchen renovation is one of the most in-demand general contracting services across Delta's three communities — and the scope and character of kitchen renovations reflect each community's distinct personality. In Ladner, kitchen renovation on heritage character homes often involves opening a compartmentalised original floor plan to create a connected kitchen-dining-living space that suits contemporary family life while respecting the home's architectural period — careful framing and engineer coordination are frequently required, and material selections that complement the home's heritage aesthetic are part of our standard consultation. In Tsawwassen, kitchen renovation often prioritises natural light maximisation and connection to outdoor living spaces — window expansions, bi-fold door installations to decks, and open-plan designs that bring the coastal setting inside. In North Delta, kitchen renovation on 1970s and 1980s family homes typically involves comprehensive updates — new cabinetry, quartz countertops, tile backsplash, improved lighting, and plumbing fixture upgrades — that deliver modern kitchens at family-appropriate budgets. Total Renovations delivers every Delta kitchen renovation as a full general contracting scope under one fixed price with all Corporation of Delta permits included.
bathroom remodeling
Bathroom Renovation Delta BC
Bathroom renovation in Delta spans a wide range — from luxury primary ensuite remodels on Tsawwassen's premium Boundary Bay properties to practical multi-bathroom updates on North Delta's larger family homes, with Ladner's character homes occupying a renovation context that rewards quality craftsmanship sensitive to the home's aesthetic origins. Total Renovations delivers bathroom renovations in Delta across this full spectrum: primary bathroom renovations with large-format tile shower construction, heated floor systems, freestanding soaker tubs, and double vanity configurations; secondary bathroom refreshes that deliver functional improvements at accessible price points; and powder room transformations that create strong first impressions in Delta's homes. Every Delta bathroom renovation is completed under a fixed price with all plumbing and electrical permits managed through the Corporation of Delta's Building Department and a written workmanship warranty on every trade scope. We coordinate all trades — plumber, electrician, tile setter, drywaller, painter, fixture installer — under one project manager so Delta homeowners never need to manage individual contractors themselves.
basement suite renovation delta bc
Basement Renovation Delta BC
Basement renovation is a consistently in-demand general contracting service in Delta — particularly in North Delta and Tsawwassen where the housing stock includes many 1970s–1990s properties with unfinished or underutilised basements that represent significant untapped value. As a general contractor for basement renovation in Delta, Total Renovations manages the complete scope: framing, insulation to BC Energy Step Code requirements, plumbing rough-in for bathroom additions, electrical panel upgrades, drywall, pot lights, flooring, and all Corporation of Delta permit applications through final occupancy approval. Secondary suite conversion — including separate entrance modification, full kitchen installation with dedicated circuits and plumbing, bathroom finishing, STC-50 sound separation between floors, fire separation to BC Building Code, and egress window installation in all bedrooms — is among the most financially compelling basement renovation investments available to Delta homeowners, generating rental income that meaningfully offsets mortgage costs. For Ladner properties in Delta's floodplain areas, basement renovation must also account for flood construction level requirements — an important consideration Total Renovations reviews as part of every Ladner basement renovation consultation before design finalisation.
home additions delta bc
Home Additions Delta BC
Delta's generous lot sizes — a hallmark of all three of the municipality's communities, where even suburban North Delta lots tend to be larger than equivalent Metro Vancouver communities — create excellent opportunity for home additions that expand living space without the disruption and cost of moving. Total Renovations manages home additions in Delta as a complete general contracting scope: architectural design coordination, structural engineering and stamp, foundation design and construction, framing, roofline integration, exterior cladding matched to the existing home, windows and doors, insulation, interior finishing, and all Corporation of Delta permit management. Main floor additions that expand kitchen and great room areas on established Ladner character homes, second-storey additions on Tsawwassen properties where upper-floor views of Boundary Bay add meaningful value, and detached garage or workshop additions on North Delta's larger hillside lots are among the most commonly requested addition types across Delta. Every home addition in Delta is delivered under a fixed price with all professional coordination and Corporation of Delta permits managed throughout.
complete exterior remodel
Construction Management Delta BC
Construction management is the most comprehensive general contracting service Total Renovations provides in Delta — and the most appropriate for complex renovation and addition projects on Delta's premium Tsawwassen Boundary Bay properties and Ladner's most characterful and valuable waterfront-adjacent homes. As a construction management company in Delta, we serve as the single professional point of accountability between the homeowner and the complete team of architects, structural engineers, geotechnical consultants where required, and tradespeople involved in a significant renovation project. We coordinate all pre-construction professional services alongside the full construction phase — from Corporation of Delta permit application through final occupancy approval — managing every consultant and trade relationship so Delta homeowners receive a complex renovation delivered as a single professional engagement under a fixed price. For Delta homeowners undertaking whole-home transformations, second-storey additions requiring engineering and significant structural coordination, or premium coastal renovations in Tsawwassen where the project scope and investment level justify full professional management, construction management services from an experienced Delta general contractor provide the accountability and coordination expertise that delivers the best outcomes on complex projects.
whole home renovation
Full Home Renovation Delta BC
A full home renovation — coordinating kitchen, bathroom, basement, and exterior improvements under a single general contracting contract — delivers the most comprehensive transformation available to Delta homeowners and is particularly compelling for properties where multiple systems need simultaneous attention. For Delta homeowners who have purchased older Ladner character properties with renovation potential, or for established Tsawwassen and North Delta homeowners whose original finishes have reached the end of their serviceable life across multiple rooms, a single general contractor contract for the complete renovation scope eliminates the burden of managing multiple trades, ensures all renovation disciplines integrate correctly before walls are closed, and provides one fixed price and one committed completion date for the entire project. Total Renovations has delivered full home renovations across Delta — managing Corporation of Delta permits, coordinating all professional consultants where required, and delivering every scope under fixed-price contracts with written workmanship warranties throughout. When Delta homeowners want one contractor responsible for everything, Total Renovations is the renovation company Delta trusts.
deck outdoor living delta bc
Exterior Renovation Delta BC
Exterior renovation is a significant general contracting category across all three Delta communities — where homes range from Ladner's older character properties needing comprehensive building envelope upgrades to Tsawwassen's coastal-adjacent homes that benefit from marine-appropriate material selections, to North Delta's 1970s ranchers approaching their first significant exterior replacement cycle. Total Renovations delivers exterior renovation in Delta as a full general contracting scope: siding replacement with fibre cement or engineered wood, roofing replacement, window and door replacement, deck construction and replacement, and exterior painting — all coordinated under one Corporation of Delta permit application and one fixed price. For Tsawwassen properties near Boundary Bay, we recommend material selections with appropriate moisture and salt-adjacent resistance — specifying products that perform adequately in the coastal-influenced conditions that Tsawwassen's most exposed locations experience. Every Delta exterior renovation is delivered with a written warranty and a firm completion schedule committed in the contract.

Custom Deck & Outdoor Living Delta
Delta's outstanding outdoor lifestyle — blessed with one of Metro Vancouver's most generous sunshine profiles, particularly in Tsawwassen and Ladner — makes outdoor living one of the most valued residential features across all three communities. A well-designed custom deck connects Delta homes to their natural settings in ways that meaningfully improve daily life and add real resale value in a market where buyers consistently seek outdoor living quality. Total Renovations builds composite decking systems across Delta using Trex, TimberTech, and Fiberon products that handle Delta's moisture and UV cycling without the ongoing maintenance that pressure-treated wood demands. For Tsawwassen properties near the water, deck and railing hardware is specified for coastal proximity — stainless and marine-grade hardware throughout. Multi-level deck systems on Ladner's larger lots, covered pergola structures in Tsawwassen, and replacement decks on North Delta family properties are all within our Delta general contracting scope. All deck construction is permitted through the Corporation of Delta Building Department under fixed-price contracts with workmanship warranties throughout.
custom renovation construction delta bc
Custom Home Renovation Delta BC
Delta homeowners bring specific renovation visions that often extend beyond standard renovation categories — and our custom home renovation contracting service is built for projects that define their own scope. Custom built-in cabinetry and shelving systems that maximise storage in Delta's character homes, home office conversions with dedicated acoustic treatment and data infrastructure, mudroom and laundry room upgrades on North Delta's family homes, custom closet and dressing room builds in Tsawwassen primary suites, wine room and wet bar installations in Ladner's larger properties, and custom fireplace surrounds and feature wall installations are among the custom general contracting scopes Total Renovations delivers across Delta's diverse housing portfolio. Every custom renovation in Delta is scoped during a thorough consultation, priced under a written fixed-price contract, permitted through the Corporation of Delta Building Department where required, and delivered with a written workmanship warranty on every scope — regardless of how unconventional the project concept.

Why Delta Renovation Requires Three-Community Expertise

Delta's identity as a municipality of three distinct communities is not just a geographical description — it is a renovation reality that shapes every project from site assessment through material selection to Corporation of Delta permit process. General contractors near Delta BC who treat Ladner, Tsawwassen, and North Delta as interchangeable delivery zones consistently miss the community-specific considerations that distinguish a well-executed Delta renovation from a generic one.

Ladner's character as Delta's historic village core creates renovation requirements unlike any other Metro Vancouver community. The village's established residential streets contain homes spanning from 1930s period properties to 1960s and 1970s suburban builds — all sharing the low-lying delta landscape and its associated moisture conditions. The Ladner village core's heritage character means exterior renovation must respect a streetscape that buyers, neighbours, and the Corporation of Delta all value. And Ladner's floodplain position — parts of the community below the 200-year flood level — creates specific flood construction level requirements for basement renovations and new structural additions that North Delta and Tsawwassen don't face in the same way.

Tsawwassen's position at the edge of Boundary Bay and the Strait of Georgia creates the most distinctive renovation context in Delta. The community's proximity to open water influences material selection for exterior renovation — window frames, cladding fasteners, and exterior hardware should be specified for salt-adjacent exposure in the most exposed Tsawwassen locations. And Tsawwassen's premium real estate market, combined with the growing Tsawwassen First Nation development area, creates a renovation landscape where investment-grade execution consistently delivers strong returns.

North Delta's hillside character, 1970s-1990s housing stock, and family-oriented demographics create the most straightforward renovation context in the municipality — comprehensive multi-room updates, secondary suite conversions, and exterior renovations that compete with Delta's growing new-build inventory in a market where families are actively choosing to upgrade established properties over purchasing newer homes at higher prices.

Corporation of Delta Permits & General Contracting Compliance
Residential renovation in Delta is regulated by the Corporation of Delta Building Department — an independent municipal authority serving Ladner, Tsawwassen, and North Delta. Total Renovations manages the complete Corporation of Delta permit process on every renovation project, from initial application through final occupancy approval.
Corporation of Delta Building Permits
The Corporation of Delta Building Department regulates all residential renovation requiring permits across all three Delta communities — structural modifications, plumbing additions, electrical upgrades, deck construction, and new additions. Total Renovations prepares and submits all permit applications, responds to plan reviewer requests, and coordinates all required field inspections on your behalf. Delta homeowners never manage the permit process themselves.
Secondary Suite Compliance
Legal secondary suites in Delta require compliance with the Corporation of Delta's Secondary Suite Bylaw and BC Building Code Part 9 secondary suite provisions — minimum ceiling heights, separate entrance, one-hour fire separation, STC-50 sound separation, egress windows in all bedrooms, and in some cases separate utility metering. Total Renovations builds secondary suites in Delta that meet every applicable requirement and manages the complete Corporation of Delta permit process including final suite registration where required.
Electrical & Mechanical Permits
Electrical upgrades, new plumbing rough-ins, and mechanical changes in Delta renovation projects require BC Safety Authority permits alongside the Corporation of Delta building permit. Total Renovations coordinates all supplementary permit applications concurrently so electrical and plumbing inspections proceed alongside structural inspections — not as sequential delays that unnecessarily extend your Delta renovation timeline.
Flood Construction Level — Ladner
Parts of Ladner sit within the Corporation of Delta's Flood Construction Level overlay — areas where the finished floor elevation of new construction and significant renovation must be above the designated flood level. Basement renovations, new structural additions, and certain exterior modifications in affected Ladner areas must comply with these flood construction level requirements. Total Renovations reviews flood construction level applicability for every Ladner project before design finalisation.
Agricultural Land Reserve
Some Delta properties — particularly in rural Ladner and the areas between Ladner and Tsawwassen — sit within or adjacent to the Agricultural Land Reserve boundary. ALR-adjacent properties may have specific site coverage and structural restrictions. Total Renovations reviews ALR status for every Delta project as part of the pre-contract consultation to identify any applicable constraints before permit application.
BC Energy Step Code
New wall, floor, and ceiling assemblies in Delta renovation projects must meet BC Energy Step Code minimum insulation requirements for Climate Zone 4. Total Renovations designs all new assemblies to meet or exceed current Step Code requirements, improving the thermal performance and year-round comfort of every Delta home we renovate and ensuring all new assemblies pass inspection without required corrections or rework.

Why Delta Homeowners Choose Total Renovations as Their General Contractor

Coastal & Heritage Awareness
For Tsawwassen properties near Boundary Bay, we specify exterior materials appropriate for coastal-adjacent environments.
