Stan Lorenzo
Stan Lorenzo is the owner of Kaizen Construction and is the driving force behind every incredible home renovation transformation that Kaizen produces. After 8 years of working for homeowners in Vancouver, and seeing how Project Management, renovation and construction industries were being tainted with workers that were less skilled, he decided it was time to set up his own shop and give his clients what they really wanted and needed: the service of a reliable experienced and honest person. This turned into his dream–now well on its way to becoming my reality.
“Kaizen” means: Constant and never-ending improvement. It is how I live my personal life and I want my company to reflect that.
Over the last 20+ years, he has been involved in the buying and selling of many properties. Whether the property was residential or commercial, he quickly learned that a place not only has to look good to sell, but it has to work.
“I work very hard on creating win/win solutions for every one of my clients. I have learned that quality and workmanship can be given to clients without outrageous prices.”

Feature Project: Full-Home Renovation in Vancouver:
The final product of this full home renovation of an old townhome here in Vancouver was a stunning transformation. The open and modern floor plan created a spacious and inviting living space, with a brick accent wall in the living room adding warmth and character. The renovated kitchen was equipped with new appliances and modern finishes, providing a functional and stylish space for cooking and entertaining. The renovated bathrooms were also equipped with new fixtures and tile work, creating a spa-like atmosphere.
The home's restored hardwood flooring, mouldings, and high ceilings add to the overall feeling of spaciousness and historical character, while the new lighting made for a bright space. The updated electrical and plumbing systems ensured that the home was safe, energy-efficient, and up to code.

Yes, you will likely need permits to renovate your home in Vancouver. The specific permits required will depend on the scope and nature of your renovation project.
In general, if your renovation involves any structural changes, electrical or plumbing work, or changes to the building envelope (e.g. windows, doors, insulation), you will need to obtain a building permit from the City of Vancouver.
If your renovation involves changes to the exterior of the building, such as the addition of a deck or a new roof, you may also need a development permit.
It is important to note that failing to obtain the necessary permits can result in fines or legal issues down the line, so it is always a good idea to consult with a professional and obtain the proper permits before starting any renovation work.
