Burnaby Construction
Luxury Residential Construction in Burnaby, BC
A custom home is a finish schedule with a house attached to it. Almost every commercial suite in Burnaby sits underneath somebody's apartment. That single fact governs the work here: restricted hours, strata approval before the city sees anything, and mechanical routing that has to respect the floors above. We plan a Burnaby fit-out around those three from the first drawing.

Burnaby is served from the White Rock office, and the tower-podium buildings here are the type we work in across the region.

Reviews
What clinic owners say.
Very impressed with Oberizon Construction and the way they handled our dental clinic build. The team managed everything from planning to execution, and the final result was exactly what we envisioned.
We hired Oberizon to build out our dental clinic and they did an amazing job. The place looks so clean and modern, exactly the look we were going for.
Working with Oberizon on our dental clinic was a great experience from start to finish. Jas Oberoi and his team were professional, responsive, and genuinely invested in getting the details right.
Local planning
How it runs in Burnaby.
Burnaby reviews a tenant improvement either on the fast track or through a full plan review, and a plan checker decides which. Anything needing Fraser Health approval is excluded from the fast track by the city's own guide. That covers salons, esthetics and skin-care work, so a med spa here goes to full review and needs Fraser Health sign-off before the permit application is made.
Burnaby's commercial space clusters around four town centres rather than a single core, and the newer supply at Metrotown, Brentwood and Lougheed is largely podium retail and professional space beneath residential towers. That building type dictates most of the work: shared services, strata rules, and mechanical routing that has to respect the residential floors above. Older stock around Edmonds and Hastings runs smaller and closer to the Vancouver pattern. The clinic demand here is steady rather than spiking, tied to the residential density arriving with each tower completion.

What decides this build
The finish schedule is the critical path. Stone, millwork and specialty glazing are ordered against framing dates, because a six-week lead time discovered late is a six-week delay.
Long-lead items are ordered against the framing schedule rather than at finishing stage, and the site is protected to a standard that assumes the finishes are already installed. Most damage on a high-finish build happens after the expensive material arrives.

Questions
Frequently asked.
Does Oberizon handle luxury residential construction in Burnaby?
Yes. We run luxury residential construction across the Lower Mainland from our White Rock head office, and that includes Burnaby's central Lower Mainland business districts. Tell us the address and we will walk the space before you commit to anything.
Who issues the building permit for luxury residential construction in Burnaby?
The building permit is issued by City of Burnaby — Building Division, reviewed against the BC Building Code and the city's own zoning. Burnaby reviews a tenant improvement either on a fast track or through a full plan review and a plan checker decides which one applies. We confirm the current review window with the city at application rather than quoting one from a previous job.
How much does luxury residential construction cost in Burnaby?
$300–$400 per sq ft turnkey — typically $1.4M–$1.8M for a 4,500 sq ft space. Base-building condition and finish level move that number most. The full 2026 breakdown is in the cost guide at /cost.
What areas near Burnaby does Oberizon serve for luxury residential construction?
Most conversations start around Metrotown, Brentwood, and Lougheed. We travel further when the scope justifies it.
What should I prepare before starting luxury residential construction in Burnaby?
The address, your lease stage and a target opening date. Drawings and a budget range help. The more we know early, the tighter the feasibility comes back.
What sets the schedule on a high-finish home?
The finish schedule, not the framing. Stone, custom millwork and specialty glazing carry the longest lead times, so they are ordered against framing dates rather than at finishing stage.
When does site protection start on a luxury build?
Before the expensive material arrives, and to a standard that assumes it is already installed. Most damage on a high-finish build happens after delivery, not during construction.
Can Oberizon review my Burnaby space before I commit?
Yes. A review finds the permit and service risks before you sign a lease or a design. That is the cheapest point to find them — a change after drawings are sealed costs weeks, not hours.
Planning luxury residential construction in Burnaby?
Before you commit to a space, drawings, a budget, or a construction timeline, book a consultation and we will tell you what has to be planned before construction starts.
