Fantastic all around.
Can’t say enough about the top tier service, craftsmanship, and professionalism was throughout our entire experience. We had a large strata with two buildings. We have extensive carpentry work needed. We were especially impressed with the team’s effort to get to the root of any issues – no bandaids!
The project lasted almost 7 weeks due to the extensive work. The team on site was very friendly, efficient, and went over & above.
10/10 recommended.

I hired renaissance to do repairs to the exterior of our house, which they did a great job at. But more importantly they also built a custom coldframe/greenhouse to grow veggies through the winter. Totally custom design, super functional and gorgeous!
Patrick Yu
I trusted Renaissance to paint my house and I am over the moon.
The house was previously damaged by the previous owner moving out and attempting a DIY paint job. It was VERY patchy and lumpy.
Renaissance came and gave me a quote and we were off to the races. They were patient with us asking many questions about the repairs and helped us chose a good colour and a great durable paint. The crew was quick, clean and timely. We got several quotes and Renaissance came in slightly lower than the others and the painting was completed a day ahead of schedule. The owner did a final walk through with us before taking the final payment.
We notice a very small area near the ceiling that needed a touch up and they had that knocked out in a few moments.
I have nothing but good things to say about them. The whole experience was smooth (just like the paint job) from start to finish.

After receiving a recomendation from a neighbour across the street, I hired Renaissance Solutions to do two projects at our house. The first was to replace poor-quality plywood framing our upstairs bathroom window, with proper construction lumber, which he then painted to match our trim. Work was well done in a timely fashion and the invoice was in line with the original estimate. Eric, the owner of Renaissance, was easy to deal with, and very timely in response to questions, etc.
Jorge did the work. He was friendly and approachable, and we enjoyed working with him. I then asked him to estimate replacing some boards on our back deck. He marked the ones he thought needed replacing and gave us an estimate. He replaced them promptly and the work was well done. The invoice matched the estimate. Again, great work and Jorge was easy to work with.
This led to a third project to replace the weatherstripping on our upstairs windows. The weatherstripping was no longer available from the window vendor so, after much searching, Eric found some replacement stripping and Jorge installed it. Given the effort that went into finding the replacements the bill was very reasonable. Again the work was well done.
It was a pleasure to work with Eric and Jorge, and I would happily recommend Renaissance for carpentry and painting and general home repairs.

RENAISSANCE, you had me at ‘Hello”! Noticing a quality carpentry project in action on a stroll, I paused to take a photo of this residence to share with my strata members. We were comparing quotes for carpentry/painting on our building exteriors.The carpenter working on the project stopped using the saw, came over and said hello. He asked “can I assist you with anything?” I thought “how courteous!”. It was a good sign.
Later when meeting with Eric, I was struck at his attention to detail, knowledge, creativity, and the presentation of his two quotes (one on paper, one on video). He and his crew were extremely respectful and professional. Fast forward to the completion of our strata project being executed beautifully, as well, my personal patio deck repaired and painted. To me, I think our strata appears similar and as charming as San Francisco’s “Painted Ladies”!
Professionally, my work as a Design + Art Advisor (former real estate agent), has taken me to Ontario, Whistler, Alberta and Vancouver – never have I experienced such consistent and outstanding service, as well, craftsmanship, from trades.This fabulous team of dedicated individuals were an absolute pleasure every day. They too were careful around nature and the nesting hummingbirds, Chickadees and bumble bees. Thank you, thank you Eric, Patrick, Jorge, Jag, Victor, as well as others…a 10/10!

I have used Renaissance Painting for a couple of projects. They did a complete interior painting project at our home in Kits Point before we moved it included carpentry and drywall repairs. It was impeccable !!! They also did exterior painting at our home in North Van to the fences and exterior doors. They made them look brand new. We have high expectations and Renaissance met and exceeded on all accounts. They had great communication and met the schedule. Great work,… friendly, helpful and very professional. We highly recommend them.

We had a fantastic experience with Renaissance painting. From start to finish, their team was professional, punctual, and attentive to detail. They listened carefully to my ideas and provided helpful suggestions to achieve the look I wanted. The quality of their work was top-notch, and they left the space clean and tidy after completing the project. I highly recommend for anyone looking for reliable and high-quality painting services. I’ll definitely be using them again in the future!

Eric and his team were great to work with finishing off our cable railing deck. Very quick to respond to my inquiry and then ordered supplies and brought them to site so I didn’t have to run around. Since it was a smaller job he squeezed us in within a week. Installation was completed in a day and looks amazing. Now the deck can be enjoyed for the full summer.

Thank you Tony. I am glad that we were able to work with you on your condo and get all the work done prior to you moving in. Removing all of the textured ceilings and making them smooth again was a lot of work, but really made a huge impact. Your decision to have us replace all of the door trim and baseboards with larger trim was a good one. Thanks again.

Renaissance were very fast to repair a leak on our upper floor balcony that was causing water damage in our basement. They ordered custom flashing and redesigned and rebuilt the entire problem area of the balcony to not only correct the problem but also provide a long term solution that would prevent future water damage. The work was done quickly, professionally and to a very high standard. Highly recommend.

Eric and the team at Renaissance Painting did an amazing job with the exterior of our kitsilano heritage home. They were kind, professional and kept the space clean. Their detail and carpentry work was exemplary. There was one small spot that failed (front door) and Eric was great about returning a year later to fix it. They are not the cheapest outfit, but honestly you get what you pay for. Highly recommend without reservation.

Llse & Bruce Patterson
Eric has a deep understanding of the effects of weather on a home. He recently repaired and repainted several areas on our home that had become rotten due to weather/water damage, and poor treatment of the wood surfaces by the original builder. He also repaired an outdoor deck which needed enhanced weather proofing and new tiles laid.
Eric and his team are extremely professional, hard working, respectful of the garden, and always keep the work area clean and tidy. Their attention to detail is exemplary. We would recommend Eric and his team without hesitation.

I’m in a heritage home in Shaughnessy and have used this company’s services on a number of occasions. Each time, I’ve been impressed with the knowledge base and efficient attitude the owner Eric, has shown. Needing painting expertise, I first reached out for help with interior painting on lathe and plaster surfaces and later with exterior painting on weathered wood. In both instances, I was provided with excellent service.
Most recently, following this wet winter season, I found water damage on my sundeck resulting from poor water drainage. I once again met with this company to assess the situation and now being confidant with the advice and action plan provided, will proceed with the repairs suggested. As before, I expect nothing but excellent and long lasting results.
These days, it’s hard to find honest, trustworthy companies that offer quality craftsmanship like this and I believe Renaissance is one that delivers.
Response from the owner
Thank you Claire. I am glad that I could help you with your lovely heritage home. We all enjoy working on the older homes and doing what is needed to keep them in good working order. Thank you again.
Drew Jackson
We’ve hired Eric and his team three times now, and they’ve done a great job every time. Most recently, they repaired a leak on an exterior deck that was causing dripping through the interior walls below. They redesigned the half wall and flashing that was the cause of the problem, fixed the damaged sheathing underneath, and redid the deck siding and railing to match. The end result looks great.
We’ve previously hired Renaissance to paint the interior of our home, and (with our neighbours) to paint the exterior of our side-by-side duplex. They did a stellar job each time. One of their strengths is having the skills to do carpentry work as well as painting. For our exterior painting, for example, they rebuilt a Juliet balcony that was falling apart, and patched areas of siding that were rotting. So much more efficient than hiring a separate contractor to do that work!

I am an electrical contractor and my guys put a lot of holes in walls retrofitting electrical devices. Renaissance Painting is our go to contractor that we use to clean up our crews mess when we are done. Whether it is a small patch all the way up to a full house paint, you can always ensure Eric and his team will always do an impeccable job. They are also great with working with, removing, prepping and fixing old wood baseboards, and wainscoting in character homes.
They are the first and only company that we have found that can assist us with these delicate wood finishings, when dealing with a knob and tube retrofit, in many of big old heritage homes throughout Vancouver.

Monique Sherrett
Eric, Pat and the team offered a detailed estimate of our project. They were the only ones out of 3 quotes that were comprehensive and identified areas that required carpentry work in addition to painting. Onsite the team was friendly, pleasant, hardworking, and kept us up to date on timelines and weather delays. We are happy to recommend them.
