Renovating in West Kelowna, From First Sketch to Final Walkthrough
West Kelowna homes range from established family houses in Westbank and Glenrosa to newer builds around Shannon Lake and Rose Valley, and hillside and view properties in Lakeview Heights and Smith Creek. Each brings its own layout questions, from tight original kitchens to walkout basements and open plans that need to work with the view. We start with how you live in the space, then design and build around it.
Danielle Ursulan leads every project as both certified interior designer and licensed general contractor. You get one team, one point of contact and one plan, instead of a designer and a builder working from different drawings. That matters on a small bathroom refresh as much as on a whole-home renovation.
Common West Kelowna projects include opening a closed kitchen to the main living area, turning a dated or unfinished basement into usable living space, updating original bathrooms, and adding room with an addition. For businesses, we design and build offices, retail spaces and short-term rental suites. Whatever the size, the design is on paper before demolition starts, so decisions are made with drawings and finishes in front of you rather than on the fly.
West Kelowna Is Its Own City, So Permits Go Through West Kelowna
West Kelowna is a separate municipality from Kelowna. Building permits for a West Kelowna renovation are applied for through the City of West Kelowna, not the City of Kelowna, and its own bylaws, zoning and inspection process apply. Some properties, such as those on Westbank First Nation lands or in a strata, follow a different or additional approval process. We confirm what your project needs early, prepare and submit the applications, and book inspections, so the paperwork never holds up the build. Whether a permit is needed depends on the scope of work; structural changes, new plumbing or electrical work, and additions generally require one, and we will tell you which applies before you commit.
