West Vancouver Renovation


West Vancouver Fire Place Renovation
This is a major concrete fireplace renovation.
The existent fireplace was a double open rustic concrete fireplace, the client was renovating the house and this old fireplace was no longer fitting the modern style of the house.
Mr. Gianni Vittorio CEO of VG Home Improvement was called for a consultation, and after discussing the option to our client, we decide to redesign and refinish the fireplace with magnesium board, and concrete fiber overlay, with a finish of NHL Natural lime plaster.
