verything you could want to know about the latest in renovation trends, styles and more can be found at two free Greater Vancouver Home Builders’ Association (GVHBA) Spring Home Reno Shows. The first is being held in Vancouver on Saturday, April 2 at the VanDusen Botanical Gardens and the North Shore event is on Saturday, April 9 at The View on Lonsdale. “The Vancouver and North Vancouver Home Reno Shows feature diff erent renovation experts that work in these respective communities, so you can be confi dent these companies have the experience working in these local neighbourhoods and understand the unique building requirements,” says Bob de Wit, the CEO of the GVHBA. “Most of the renovators conduct business outside the North Shore and Vancouver area as well, so it really is the right place to find the right contractor for you.” Homeowners are encouraged to bring their plans directly to the exhibiting members for free one-onone consultations. Show entry requires no pre-registration, but if you want a

personal consultation, call 778-565-4288 to book your 20-minute chat with one of the GVHBA RenoMark renovator/builders or designers. REW spoke to four local exhibiting renovators who were more than happy to provide their top renovation trends:
Laurel James, Novell Design Build ■ Traditional kitchens with built-in nooks – perfect for curling up with your morning cup of coffee. ■ Different seating arrangements in the kitchen to encourage family interaction. ■ Warm metals are big – brass, gold, bronze in reflective or hammered styles ■ Cast iron, slipper or claw foot freestanding tubs are hugely popular. ■ Walls painted in deep tones of blues and greens. ■ Wallcoverings are in vogue in a big way. “Whether they are murals, large scale photography or emotive designs, home owners love wallcoverings.” ■ Screens and shutters are very popular. “As we blur the line between inside and outside they offer shade control and sun control.”
Board Slams “Shadow Flipping” Media Coverage, New Rules in Letter to Clark
Graeme Huguet, My House Design-Build ■ Energy efficient and Built Green are the new normal. ■ Homes are increasingly being fitted for aging in place. ■ Radiant floor heating is very popular. ■ Transforming staircases into contemporary, open steel structures with glass and wood treads allowing more natural light into the home. ■ Owners are upgrading the outside look of the windows and doors, again often to bring more natural light inside.
Doug Kerr, Kerr Construction ■ Old layouts continue to be opened up, not just internally but also to the outside. ■ Aging in place is the biggest trend – wider doorways and master suites on the main floor. ■ Televisions in the master bathrooms are all the rage. ■ Frameless glass showers and open showers are very trendy. ■ Reclaimed brick for walls and old beams for ceilings.
What Will It Cost to Get Out of My Mortgage Early? An Expert Explains
■ Vinyl plank flooring is hot. “These floors look like wood and yet they are softer and warmer to walk on.” ■ LED lighting is getting better and better with different temperatures of lighting available.
Todd Senft, reVISION Custom Home Renovations ■ Intergenerational living is the future – home owners are renovating basements, or adding laneway houses, to have either parents or grown children live with them. ■ Free-standing outdoor pizza ovens are the in thing. ■ Owners are installing pass-through folding windows from the indoor kitchen to the outdoor kitchen. ■ Ensuites are being upgraded with luxurious showers with multiple showerheads and recessed niches for your shampoos and soap, as well as large free-standing tubs.

Investment in BC New Home Building Continues to Go Up: StatCan
B
C’s new home building investment rose 14.3 per cent year over year in January to $695 million, according to Statistics Canada figures released March 21. Total spending on detached home construction was highest of the four property types at $315 million, a rise of four per cent over January 2015, although this was a month-over-month drop of 3.2 per cent. Close second in total investment were condo-apartments, at $291 million invested in January. But this figure was again a much steeper pace of annual growth, at 30 per cent more than January 2015. The figure
was a decline of four per cent compared with December. Townhouse and row home construction investment, although much lower in totals, also continued to rise strongly, up 20.6 per cent year over year to $67 million in January. This was an increase of 8.3 per cent compared with December 2015. As has been the recent trend, the only new property type to see an annual drop in total spending was again duplex housing. Investment in duplexes fell nearly 16 per cent year over year in January to total less than $22 million, a drop of 4.5 per cent from December.
For the first time in many months, BC’s total $695 million investment in home building outstripped that of Alberta, to become the second-highest-investing province after Ontario. BC’s 14.3 per cent annual increase in January was again the second-sharpest rise in new home investment, with only Ontario outpacing the province, as Alberta’s total was a near-20 per cent drop compared with January 2015. Nationwide, spending on new home building increased at a far gentler rate than that of BC, with its total of $3.67 billion in January a rise of 3.9 per cent from the same
month a year earlier, and a drop of 6.1 per cent compared with December. Like in BC, the sharpest growth in overall Canadian construction investment was seen in multi-family home buildings, which rose nearly 20 per cent year over year. There was also some increased spending on townhomes and row homes, up 7.6 per cent since the previous January. Once more, there were year-over-year declines in investment in single-family housing and duplexes across Canada in January, with spending on these housing types dropping four per cent and 16.4 per cent respectively.
