Island Efficient Homes is known for our focus on customer satisfaction and the strong attention to detail we bring to every job. Here are some of the principles we follow in our approach to renovation projects in Nanaimo.
You don’t have to build a home from the ground up to take advantage of energy savings. We can make upgrades that modernize your current home and improve the energy efficiency of single rooms or the complete house.
Our in-house interior design division adds values to renovation projects by offering professional space planning services. By focusing on intelligent and efficient use of space, we can help you get the most out of what you have.
We understand that homeowners and businesses have different needs and goals when it comes to renovations. We're experienced working with both groups in order to provide a stress-free experience to your project.
Along with a keen eye for energy and space efficiency, our particular areas of expertise include custom cabinet building, professional interior design, and flooring and tiling services that include layout and installation.
We treat all renovation projects with the same care, from basic cosmetic remodelling up to major structural modifications. When we run into something outside of our expertise, we have sub-trades on hand we can count on.
With a trio of family-run companies aligned to serve you, working with Island Efficient Homes means you won’t have to look elsewhere during the course of your renovation project. We’ve got your needs covered!

Our in-house interior design services help to get the most out of your remodelling project, providing you with the convenience of a one-stop renovation service.
We were recently hired by a company who bought a building in downtown Nanaimo to complete a commercial renovation for a tenant. It required coordinating with the tenant, some long hours, and after-hours work to meet the tight deadline. We must have done something right: afterwards two of the employees of the client hired us to work in their own homes as well!
Renovations, especially larger ones, are a one-time undertaking for lots of people, and many of our clients come to us as first-time renovators.
First-time renovators often have little-or-no frame of reference on how to answer some key questions:
If this sounds like you, don't worry! We're here to help walk you through the entire renovation process. We’ll clearly explain what we propose to do, and the steps we’ll take to achieve your goals and vision.
We will help you make important decisions, and guide you throughout so you don’t miss any opportunities to get the most out of your space and budget.
We’ve put together an article that outlines the renovation process at Island Efficient Homes. It’s a quick read that’s meant to give you some context of what to expect.
If your renovation project requires breaking ground, we've got you covered. Thanks to our in-house excavation division you’ll have one less subcontractor to hire.
Reshaping your space
Our experience has shown us that not everyone is particularly excited about seeing their home go through a process of demolition to make way for the new.
But the reality is that demolition is a big part of nearly all renovation projects. During this phase of the renovation it really is "out with the old and in with the new", and it represents the reshaping of your space to truly fit your needs and your lifestyle.
When we're in the midst of the demolition stages we always work hard to keep things clean and do our best to minimize disruption where we can.
So try to embrace the change, and soon your project will be complete – we promise!
