Hicks Fine Homes - (Hicks Interiors Inc.)

We hired Mike to renovate our entire home. From the beginning planning stages, through budgeting and selection of materials, all the way through to the final product, Mike and his crew were great to work with. He took time to listen to what we wanted and gave suggestions that hadn't occurred to us but he thought might suit our needs. Despite all of the many hiccups that he came across in our very old and tired house, Mike tackled them professionally and perfectly. He made the entire process virtually pain-free and the end product has given us a house that we have continued to enjoy over the last 8 years. We still receive positive comments on the layout and changes that Mike made to our home and highly recommend Hicks Fine Homes to anyone thinking of a small or large renovation.

Working with Mike at Hicks Interiors is always a positive experience. The workmanship and commitment to quality is consistent and at a high standard that is evident in all of the projects MIke has completed for me through the years. Mike makes himself easily available and accessible throughout the project; always feeling like my project is his priority. I highly recommend Mike for any project needs if you are seeking quality work.

Over the past 5 years Mike and his crew have done 3 big projects for us, namely in the interior of our home, our back deck and yard, and a new entrance and staircase to our 107 year old house. Mike is a talented designer that has a unique ability to combine the old with the new while staying true to the character of the home. He was able to maximize the use of the available space and create a great flow, thanks to his creativity and wealth of unique ideas. He is open and approachable and really helps navigate all the decisions and stages of a renovation. We’ve received a lot of praise from our guests regarding our deck, with people being especially impressed with its design, flow and finish. This includes the creative solution of attaching the wooden cedar boards with screws from underneath which gives the deck an elevated, clean look. Our most recent project, focusing on our front entrance, really transformed the look of our old yet charming home. Mike’s crew is exceptionally professional, they pay attention to detail, and definitely know their craft. Above all they are super friendly, polite, and helpful and make it easier to go through a renovation. I would gladly recommend Mike and his team for any renovation project and I am confident that you will be delighted with the outcome.

I really enjoyed working with Michael on this project. I live in Hong Kong and was back in Vancouver 4 times over a period of 6 months to help my mother renovate her apartment. Michael completely understood what I was hoping to achieve, allowed me to make my inputs in materials and interior design ....but he really put the whole picture together. With me being in Hong Kong, I don't think I could have achieved this with any other of the contractors who I met. We are all really pleased with the outcome. I hope in the future we have a chance to work together again. Who knows..... my mom is thinking of moving into a larger flat in this building. She said "oh it will be easier the 2nd time, we just get Michael to do the same thing again!"

I have hired Hicks Interiors over several years for bathroom renovations that usually start from a scare with black mold or leaks that may have started moulding. Mike Hicks has great experience tackling this troublesome situation, providing knowledge and thorough problem solving that doesn't cut corners even with a tight budget. Once solved, he presented layout ideas for the bathrooms that provided more storage and ease of use . One can definitely trust his team of workers to be thorough and trustworthy in your home.

We hired Mike for some renovations this past summer. Mike and his crew rremoved our flooring (combination of carpet, tile and laminate) and replaced it with Vinyl Plank. Our entire suite was repainted, our pantry and closet bifold doors were replaced, and a beautiful new mantle was built for our fireplace. Mike was very organised, the work was time in a timely manner and his crew did a fantastic job! I would recommend Mike to anyone who is planning any major home renovatio.

Mike Hicks at Hicks Interiors is top notch. Mike's work for our home renovation project was impeccable and at a superior standard, truly worthy of a "fine home.” Mike excelled during the design and planning phases of our renovation — he had great ideas that we hadn’t thought of which really brought the project to another level. His approach is open and honest, he builds trust from the outset and is always fair and reasonable in his approach to billing and costs. His creative ideas in the design stage of our interior renovation as well as our exterior deck space were concepts that we could not have come up with on our own. People walk into our home and onto our deck and say "wow!" I should also mention that Mike has extensive experience with homes in Vancouver and can advise on specific product solutions and ways to protect from water and drainage issues -- not a sexy thing, but definitely something that needs to get done right and will save you over the long run. And, Mike's crew are exceptionally careful, well-mannered, and hard-working -- a pleasure to have around the house when you are living through a renovation! I would unequivocally recommend Mike if you are looking for a fine builder to confidently take on and complete your next home renovation project.

We wanted a new back stair case built onto our heritage home in East Vancouver. We were looking for a design that included a platform for hanging clothes on a clothes line. We considered two other companies before deciding to go with Mike Hicks. His team was very busy and we had to wait until they were available to start construction. Mike and his carpenter Nick were very worth the wait. Mike made numerous visits to the site to shepherd the project and was always available for consultation by email and over the phone. Nick showed up early every day, conducted himself in a professional and friendly manner, he worked hard all day and cleaned and tidied the work site at the end of each day. His workmanship is first class. We would not hesitate to recommend Mike and his team for any building project you may have.

Our project was to renovate our family home - a 2200 square foot split level. We hired Mike Hicks who took control of the project and helped us throughout the term of the project. As with all renovations we uncovered some unexpected problems which he helped us unravel and put us back on track. Mike is very knowledgeable, professional and all his companies work is executed extremely well. The renovation was a huge success and everything works ! I was very satisfied with Mike Hicks and his company and can highly recommend him to help you with your renovation.

We have a 1950's split level home that we asked Mike Hicks to renovate in 2008/2009. Mike helped us navigate and make the countless decisions that are required during an entire home renovation. He was patient and extremely helpful during the project and helped keep us on track by not overwhelming us with too many decisions at once. We found him and his crew to be extremely professional and knowledgeable. The house looks great and more importantly is properly renovated and exceeds all our expectations. Mike continues to help us with little projects and would highly recommend his workmanship and experience. Thank you Mike Hicks and Hicks Fine Homes

I have an old house, which consequently needed a lot of major and minor updates and renovations over the years. I always called Mike Hicks, and he always comes through with some imaginative ideas and detailed plans to make it work. One of the bigger projects, completed in 2008, was a rebuild of my front porch, which was slowly collapsing. He suggested a small storage room under the porch, which has been invaluable to me, and he suggested using sliding closet doors to save space. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Mike and his crew for any house renovations you have.
