We found Chris to be knowlegable and professional in all aspects of the project. We were kept appraised of the progress at all times he was always easy to contact when questions arose. The quotes provided were very thorough and transparent and he made a good effort to keep prices as low as possible. Overall we were very happy with the service provided by Chris Black of Alair Homes and would recommend him for home construction projects. > > Roxanne D. **★★★★★ — kcapier, April 2014** > Chris worked with us to analyze the option of renovating our home to meet our family's needs. Chris was very professional and he sought creative solutions to overcome the obstacles that our old house and the current zoning presented. Even though we ultimately chose to move to a new home we greatly appreciate the persistence and patient guidance that Chris brought to the analysis. We would be very happy to work with Chris again in the future. **★★★★★ — katherinenorthvan, April 2014** > We were referred to Chris Black by the designer we hired to plan the renovation of the common areas of our strata complex. As a strata council accountable for reporting to 49 individual owners, we needed a contractor who would keep us informed of the details of all costs, be mindful of our budget, let us know our options and seek advance approval for dealing with anything unexpected, and who would also be willing to take the time to meet with us regularly for the duration of the project. Chris more than met our expectations. He and his sub-trades were reliable, professional, efficient and did great work for us making our design a reality - and we loved that they cleaned up after themselves every day so owners didn’t feel like they were living in a construction site for several months. We would have absolutely no hesitation in hiring Chris again for other projects. **★★★★★ — campbex, Jan. 2014** > I highly recommend Chris. We hired him for a major renovation of our condominium. Chris was a consummate and trustworthy professional and delivered an end result which garnered a Georgie Award for in the Category best Condo renovation under $100,000. **★★★★★ — User, Jan. 2014** > I can recommend Chris and his work highly. He has worked on my home, and I have seen his work on several other large renovation and restoration projects. He not only employs fine craftsmen but he holds sub-contractors to the same exacting standards that he sets for himself. He also is highly organized and professional—as well as very communicative—all of which are rarities in the world of construction and renovation. Chris strives to make his processes better—seeking to deliver a consistently high standard of product and services. ## Selected projects - [BONE Structure](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/bone-structure-pj-vj~660192) - Location: North Vancouver, BC - Photos: 3 - [West Coast Contemporary Renovation](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/west-coast-contemporary-renovation-pj-vj~559046) - Location: North Vancouver, BC - Photos: 3 - [West Coast Traditional Custom Home](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/west-coast-traditional-custom-home-pj-vj~567699) - Location: North Vancouver, BC - Photos: 4 - [Vancouver - Shaughnessy Condo Kitchen](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/vancouver-shaughnessy-condo-kitchen-pj-vj~428764) - Location: Vancouver, BC - Photos: 9 - [Penthouse Overlooking English Bay](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/penthouse-overlooking-english-bay-pj-vj~743577) - Location: Vancouver, BC - Photos: 50 - Description: Complete transformative condo penthouse renovation.
