Craftsmanship and commitment to quality
If you want to build a masterpiece for your lifestyle – whether that’s a kitchen or bath reno, an addition, a new deck or a whole home makeover – make sure you have a builder with a strong track record of turning great designs into impeccable results.

Shakespeare Homes has a solid history of delivering outstanding quality and value. How?
We are small enough so you get one-on-one consultation with an experienced home construction expert, giving you instant attention to any question or concern about your renovation. But we’re big enough to build you a new home, and to have all the right tools available on each site, including our own fleet of vehicles to remove waste and bring resources and equipment without waiting for rentals or suppliers’ schedules. And we keep our own stock of common materials on hand at our North Vancouver shop and in our trucks/trailers to avoid delays.

You get the best: Our in-house professionals include a superb designer, an expert builder with several decades of experience, project managers, journeyman structural framers and finishing carpenters, and our program apprentices. As well, you’ll find the best specialty tradespeople and artisans who prefer to work with Shakespeare Homes because they know their craftsmanship will be valued and their time used wisely.

From design concepts to construction details, our extensive experience helps you make decisions about your renovation that provide the best investment.

We live and build on the North Shore, and have a broad understanding of its uniqueness – slopes and soils, creekside and streamside development, view requirements and more, including its municipalities’ permit and inspection processes and people. When you need us, we’re here – not a bridge or two away.

Shakespeare Homes is a member of several local Chambers of Commerce, the Canadian Home Builders Association (CHBA) and the Greater Vancouver Home Builders Association (GVHBA). You can have the peace of mind that comes with working with a contractor who is GVHBA-Renomark certified as reliable.

We take care of the environment – in your home and for the planet – by designing and building with renewable resources, sustainable materials and energy efficient methods. And, for clients who are interested in green certification, we’re fully qualified in the CHBA’s Build Green program and ready to meet or exceed the pending Renovate Green standards.

**★★★★★ — Tarina Palmer-Finneran, July 2020**

> Mark and the team at Shakespeare modernized our tired 1960s house and turned it into a contemporary home that met the lifestyle of a modern family. It was an enormous project completed on a tight timeline. Mark and his team were very knowledgeable about every facet of the construction process. Their professionalism made us feel confident in our choices throughout this project. The quality of the work was excellent and has been noted by many.

**★★★★★ — STOR-X North & West Vancouver, Feb. 2017**

> As a supplier of custom closets and storage systems, I appreciate working with an organization which share the same business ethics and integrity.  Mark and his team are organized, knowledgeable, easy to work with and professional.  I look forward to working with these folks again!

**★★★★★ — Pure Wood Studio, Jan. 2017**
