Steps to complete prior to commencement of renovation

  1. Is your contractor and trades insured? Ensure that all listed Trades and General Contractors are ticketed trades that are bonded and carry insurance. Your contractor must provide a WCB clearance letter and proof of Contractor Liability insurance to the Property Manager before approved works commence. A coverage of $2,000,000M is recommended to fully protect you and your Strata Corporation.

  2. Consider buying betterment insurance coverage for any flooring renovations and renovation insurance for any minor or major renovations

  3. Ensure all copies of building permits, electrical and/or plumbing permits are emailed to Property Management for record of registration with City of Vernon permitting department

  4. Pre-book the elevator by contacting the on-site caretaker maintenancekas3310@gmail.com so protective blankets can be installed on walls to protect finishes from damages. 

  5. If hauling demolition debris from suites ensure RAM board is installed on corridor carpet/tile from suite entrance to parkade/exit to avoid damages to common property.
