RENOVATION SERVICES FAQ – KENNEDY CONSTRUCTION
1. What types of renovation projects does Kennedy Construction take on
We specialize in large-scale home renovations, including full interior and exterior transformations, structural upgrades, major layout reconfigurations, and performance-driven retrofits. Our renovation work goes well beyond cosmetic updates and focuses on long-term durability, comfort, and structural integrity.
2. Are renovations on the North Shore different from other regions
Yes. Renovations in North Vancouver and West Vancouver often involve older homes, steep sites, heavy rainfall, and complex structural conditions. These factors require careful planning, strong engineering coordination, and experience working within coastal building environments.
3. Can you renovate older homes while preserving their character
Absolutely. Many North Shore homes have strong architectural character but outdated systems or structural limitations. Our approach allows us to preserve what works while upgrading framing, envelopes, mechanical systems, and layouts to meet modern performance and lifestyle expectations.
4. Do renovation projects typically involve structural work
In many cases, yes. Large renovations often uncover structural deficiencies once walls and floors are opened. We routinely address framing reinforcement, load redistribution, seismic improvements, and foundation upgrades to ensure the home is safe and built to current standards.
5. How long does a full home renovation usually take
Most large-scale renovations take between nine and eighteen months. Timelines depend on the scope of work, the extent of structural changes, permitting requirements, and the level of detail involved. We establish realistic schedules early and communicate clearly throughout the project.
6. Can you improve energy efficiency during a renovation
Yes. Renovations present an ideal opportunity to improve insulation, air tightness, moisture control, and mechanical systems. Many of our renovation projects incorporate high-performance building strategies that significantly improve comfort, efficiency, and long-term durability.
7. How involved is Kennedy Construction during the planning and design phase
We are highly involved from the early stages. We work closely with architects, designers, and engineers to coordinate scope, budget, constructability, and permitting. This integrated approach reduces surprises and leads to better outcomes during construction.
8. What is the first step to starting a renovation project with Kennedy Construction
The first step is an initial consultation. We review your home, discuss your goals, assess site and structural conditions, and outline a clear path forward. From there, we help guide planning, design coordination, and next steps toward construction.
