According to Haida legend, the Raven was responsible for bringing light to the world, was the guardian of magic and symbolized the qualities of respect and caring.
"I cannot describe our company philosophy better, or a better way to describe a company," says JeffLondon, founder of Ravenwood Construction. "We constantly strive to bring the basic tenants of the Raven into our daily lives and work ethic. We transform spaces into new living areas which can even sometimes seem magical. We respect the environment and care for our clients by using reclaimed materials as well as reduce wastage as much as possible. We bring light to areas of the home by redesigning spaces to better suit the occupants needs." Established in 2001, Ravenwood Construction is a member of the Greater Vancouver Homebuilders Association, Registered Housing Professionals and Certified Residential Builders. They offer design build services as well as custom construction and maintenance programs for single family and multi family homes. "Our goal is to provide the best Quality service possible; as our success is measured only by the satisfaction of our clients." Construction codes, designs and materials are constantly changing. The team at Ravenwood are always updating their skill sets to make sure you get the best service and value possible. They participate in industry programs and education and pass the knowledge along to their clients.
They take pride in their service, projects and the happiness of their clients with the end results.
"Houses are as individual as their owners, and as unique as the communities in which they reside. They are statements of creativity, of wealth, of community, and of family. They are statements of pride, and of hard work, of transformation and of sustainability. A house is not just walls and a roof-it's a group of systems that work together to maintain the health of the occupants."
"As products become more energy efficient and building materials see new lives as reclaimed or reused items, we are witnessing a modern renaissance in home renovation, construction and design." The Built Green program, established nationally in 2003, is a certification program for homes that are designed and constructed using environmentally responsible principles.
"These national programs are benchmarks in not only design, but in the very way we view the homes in which we live. We can now design and build homes that are stylish and comfortable but with an efficient use of space and design that will reduce energy usage."
Ravenwood wants it's customers to live in a healthy space. When they are asked to do a quote for a customer they will always do a complete assessment of their house to ensure that nothing is in need of immediate repair or that could compromise the integrity of the house.
"While these repairs may not be as visually enjoyable, they are nonetheless just as important to the health and welfare of the occupants.
"Our estimates come with a comprehensive scope of work, as well as a report on the overall condition of the home. Regardless of the project we engage in with the homeowner, we will always provide a quality service; built on time and on budget. Everytime." Once the project is complete, Ravenwood also offers a yearly maintenance program that will ensure the continued outstanding performance of the new work for many years to come.
Providing you with this value-added service guarantees that the investment you made into your home will continue to appreciate in both value and function.
