Homes we work in around North Vancouver
North Vancouver is two municipalities and one climate: postwar neighbourhoods on the flats, custom builds up the hillside, and rain that tests every wet area harder than anywhere else we work.
Custom work in postwar bungalows and split-levels in Lynn Valley, Norgate and Upper Lonsdale starts with making the room true. Older homes have walls out of plumb and floors out of level, and a bookmatched wall or a geometric pattern shows every inch of that. We correct the substrate first, then set out the layout on paper so the pattern lands where the eye expects it.
Hillside custom builds in Edgemont, Deep Cove and Blueridge are where most of our slab and large-format custom work happens: full-height bookmatched porcelain, marble slab showers with mitred niches, and floors that run continuous across the main level. The architecture leaves nowhere to hide a bad line, which is exactly why we get the call.
In the Lower Lonsdale and Central Lonsdale mid-rises, custom tile is usually a single statement: a feature wall, a slab shower, a mosaic floor in a powder room. We bring the same layout discipline at that scale, and handle the building logistics that come with working in a strata.

FAQ
Common questions in North Vancouver.
What counts as custom tile work?
Anything where the layout has to be resolved before the first cut: bookmatching, a pattern that needs to centre on a fixture, mitred edges, mixed materials, or a designer drawing with dimensions on it. If the tile has to land in a specific place, it's custom.
Can you work from my designer's drawings in North Vancouver?
Yes, and it's our preferred way to start. Resolved drawings mean we can plan the layout, the cuts and the transitions before the tile arrives. We'll flag anything on the drawing that the material or the room can't actually do, before it becomes a problem on site.
Is custom tile installation more expensive?
The material is usually the bigger difference. Labour runs higher too, because layout, cutting and setting take longer and the tile is often too expensive to waste. We price it after seeing the drawings and the room, and we'll tell you where the money is going.
