As we enter the new decade many of us are excited to see what the future holds. With incredible technological leaps forward being made every day the team here at RDC Fine Homes can’t wait to see what the ’20s will bring. This will be the fourth decade that we’ve worked in and we’ve seen major changes over the years. Looking forward, these are the construction and renovation trends that we expect to see in Whistler and the Sea to Sky Corridor in 2020.
We are thrilled to announce we have won Best Building or Construction Company at the Pique News Best of Whistler awards! Thank you to everyone who voted, this is a special award as the winner is chosen by our incredible community members and knowledgeable visitors.
We wish you a warm and happy holiday season, from the whole RDC Fine Homes Team!
Everybody here at RDC Fine Homes is delighted to announce that we have been nominated in 6 categories for the prestigious Grand Georgie Awards®. The Grand Georgie Awards® are organized by the Canadian Home Builders Association and is one of the most important housing awards programs in Canada. With over 600 attendees from the industry and government officials, it’s quite an achievement to be nominated for so many awards.
As the world is becoming more aware of environmental issues, there has been a surge of interest in environmentally friendly construction practices. As well as being better for the planet, they can also be cheaper to run and nicer places to live. We’ve got a lot of experience in building Net Zero and Built Green homes, but did you know that we’re also experts at building Passive Houses?
The home building industry in BC is undergoing a dramatic change that will likely cause significant disruption over the next few years. As of January 2018, BC adopted the BC Energy Step Code, a move to improve energy efficiency and reduce carbon emissions from buildings. This new building code provision allows municipal governments to adopt more stringent requirements for energy efficiency in houses and large buildings.
One of the most exciting parts about building a new home is deciding what it’s going to look like. Some of the most popular architectural styles in the Sea to Sky Corridor are Chalet Style, Modern and Scandinavian. Each of these has unique benefits and is perfectly suited for this part of the world.
