We had recently purchased a 20 year old apartment that we wanted to renovate. We did all the flooring, bathroom, kitchen and paint as well as some upgrade of the fireplace area. All the work was done on time, on budget and the work quality was great. > As a busy working couple we could have not managed this work or done it ourselves so finding someone experienced, knowledgeable and skilled like Peter was amazing. He kept us up to date every step of the way and referred us to great suppliers from flooring, bathroom fixtures to kitchen appliances. The trades he worked with and secured for the project were top notch and did outstanding work. > Finally Peter was respectful with our neighbors, minimizing disruption and impact to them. Several of them commented how great the contractors were and asked for his referral so they could potentially use him in the future. > We also used Rebecca for assistance in selecting the counter top and she was great to work with. Fast, efficient and great communicator. > > Thank you so much Peter & Rebecca. > > Chris & Hallie **★★★★★ — Katherine Wrixon, Feb. 2021** > Peter Lapres homes completely renovated the main floor of my Point Grey house, including a new kitchen with cabinetry, a new island, hardwood floors, a powder room, painting, electrical work, new lighting and a home office with a built-in desk and cabinetry. I had no prior renovation experience nor did I have any knowledge of interior design, so I was thrilled that Peter looked after everything. Peter would come on site and meet with sub-contractors who were professional and did outstanding work. He kept the site clean, was honest, trustworthy and an excellent communicator. After the job was completed, I was concerned he would disappear however, when there was tweaking or adjustments that needed to be done, he was very responsive and took action immediately. When I wanted to change something mid-way through the project he made it happen. The job was done on time and on-budget. How many customers can say that about their renovation? Peter often had suggestions as to how we could save money during the process. I never felt pushed to spend more or upgrade my plans. > His wife Rebecca Lapres of Rebecca Lapres Interior Design, has an incredible sense of design, colour and space. She brought me numerous colour swatches, floor samples, tile options, fabric samples and listened to what I liked but was never afraid to tell me when she thought that something would not work. She did all of the running around for me, collecting the samples so it really felt effortless. She turned my dark old-fashioned home, into a beautiful, light and modern space. She also had wonderful suggestions as to how to re-vamp some of the old furniture pieces I loved so I didn’t need to go out and start from scratch. Seamlessly, Rebecca pulled it all together. > Now, I love to sit on my couch with a cup of tea and marvel at how beautiful my home has become. Most importantly, Peter and Rebecca are good humans. They are absolutely a pleasure to work with. Peter even managed to befriend my ferocious chihuahua Chloe and had her cuddling in his arms…no small feat. > I hold both Peter of Lapres Homes and Rebecca of Rebecca Lapres Interior Design in the highest regard. They worked magic in my home and I could not be happier! **Comment from Lapres Homes:** > Katherine, thank you so much for your very kind review. We work hard to take care of our clients. It's a great feeling knowing that it's appreciated. And it's very satisfying for us knowing that we have been successful in helping you get the lovely home that you deserve. Btw, cuddling client's pets isn't in the job description but it's a nice perk! **★★★★★ — Linda Tai, June 2020** > Peter Lapres and Lapres Homes made our home renovation as stress free as possible. He was present on site for the different trades and was very efficient. Our neighbors also complimented them on keeping the job site clean and tidy. We would highly recommend Lapres Homes. **★★★★★ — Laura Bliss, June 2020** > We have had two excellent experiences with Lapres Homes, first with our bathroom and then with our kitchen/dining room. The owner, Peter Lapres, is hands-on and an excellent communicator. We received regular progress updates, and clear explanations about the cost and benefits of the decisions we were making. His team was friendly, easy to have in our house, and prioritized cleanliness (to the extent that is reasonably possible during a significant renovation). The work was top-notch and we are thrilled with the results. They worked well with our designer. (Peter is married to a noted interior designer himself, and it is clear that some of that design sense has rubbed off on him as well.) We would have no difficulty recommending Lapres Homes for projects large and small. **★★★★★ — nardia s, Sept. 2019** > Peter Lapres and his team were absolutely fantastic and I recommend him without reservation. This was my first home renovation and I was nervous about the process and bad stories I had heard. Peter made all that disappear. Yes of course there were some unexpected problems and delays, but every time Peter came ready with possible solutions. Throughout the renovation project, Peter made sure I was involved and kept me updated on progress. The team of subcontractors were all excellent and the site was always clean and tidy. I now have a beautiful home, thank you! **Comment from Lapres Homes:** > Thank you Nardia! What a pleasure and privilege it was to work with you on your new home. Your attitude sure helped us in surmounting the various obstacles that came up ( as they always do in any renovation). I especially appreciated your enthusiasm and decisiveness. Two great traits that really helped us to achieve a great home for you. **★★★★★ — Riesco & Company Interior Design, Jan. 2019** > I am an interior designer in Vancouver and have worked with Peter Lapres on many projects over the years. In fact, I gave him his very first job! And even then, his manner, professionalism and execution were excellent and our clients were very pleased with the result. Since then Peter has gone on to build his business into a reputable and reliable company working with only the best trades and consultants. When I refer Peter for a project, I know I needn't worry about a thing and that he will see the job through completely and thoroughly and to the highest standard. **Comment from Lapres Homes:** > Wow Riesco and Co you did give us our first contract. That was a while ago!! Thank you so much for this kind review and thank you for all the recommendations you’ve given us. It’s been our real pleasure to work with you over the years, get to know your wonderful clients and help you realize your inspired designs. **★★★★★ — Laura M Beaulieu-Lindsey, Oct. 2018** > The work completed by Peter Lapres and his crew is outstanding. We are very pleased with the quality of materials and the finished bathroom. **★★★★★ — Shereen de Rousseau, March 2018** > Lapres Homes has done multiple renovations for us over the years and we would hire them again. > Peter is honest and upfront about timelines and prices. He communicates with us and we never are left wondering what is going on. The quality of the work is topnotch. I would highly reccomend LaPres Homes. **Comment from Lapres Homes:** > Shereen, thank you so much for your great review. As always, it was such a pleasure to help you realize your vision. We were so pleased that you were happy with the result. Great picture! **★★★★ — Lynne DeCew, March 2018** > Work was done on budget and on time, apart from a few minor delays due to weather and vacation schedules. Peter was always quick to respond, professional and pleasant to deal with, as were his various tradespeople. Since we were living in our condo during the renovations, we greatly appreciated how efficiently, neatly and quietly everyone worked - and we're very pleased with the end result. **Comment from Lapres Homes:** > Lynne, Thank you very much for your kind review. We are so happy that you were pleased with the end result. What a transformation! **★★★★★ — Matthew Ghikas, Sept. 2017** > We retained Peter and his team to renovate an old bathroom and bedroom in our character home. We have experience with various contractors, and Peter and his team are by far the best that we have worked with. People had told us that Peter's day to day communication was excellent and it lived up to the billing. He kept us informed and was available to take our calls. Schedule was critical to us, and the work was done on time. He was excellent in telling us the cost implications of decisions we were making. When unexpected issues arose (as they always do with an old house!) Peter managed them and kept our stress levels down. I would not hesitate to recommend Lapres Homes to anyone. **★★★★★ — Kate Wolfe, Aug. 2017** > My husband and I hired Peter to renovate our kitchen and family room in 2011. From the moment we met Peter we knew he was someone we could trust. His easy manner and competent approach gently guided us through the construction phase of the project. Not only was the project done on time and on budget, Peter expertly managed the subcontractors and tradespeople required o complete the project. We are thrilled with our kitchen and family room and would not hesitate to recommend Peter to anyone interested in building or renovating. **★★★★★ — Giselle Lightle, Jan. 2017** > My latest project involved renovating the entire main floor of my town home, from installing hardwood throughout, building in new cabinetry, replacing the kitchen countertop, painting, rebuilding the fireplace surround and more. > > Peter Lapres does not settle for 'good enough'. All of his subcontractors are high quality and he oversees all aspects of the work in progress. He either came by every day to monitor work progress and discuss or he would call me. I was never left wondering what was going on. Any concern I had was addressed immediately. > > What particularly impressed me was that he made sure that my home was swept up every day during particularly dusty operations like removing floor tile since I was still living there during the reno. He went out of his way to minimize the mess. > > As the project winds up he checks to make sure that I am happy with the quality of work done for each element. If I had a concern with anything he immediately arranged for the subcontractor to make the necessary changes or even did them himself when possible. > > I will be using Lapres Homes for future work. You can't argue with high quality work and a contractor who takes pride in his work. ## Selected projects - [Mountain View House](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/mountain-view-house-pj-vj~2913870) - Location: Vancouver, BC - Photos: 9 - Description: A newly built house on Vancouver's east side. - [My Work](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/my-work-pj-vj~659371) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 7 [See all 2 projects](https://www.houzz.com/professionals/home-builders/lapres-homes-pfvwus-pf~218193881) ## Ideabooks - [peterlapres's Ideas](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/23115560/list/peterlapres-s-ideas) — 66 ideas - [Shutters](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/134437877/list/shutters) — 5 ideas [See all 2 ideabooks](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/users/peterlapres) --- *Source: Houzz professional profile.
