The Construction Source

Awards – which highlight the best in home building in all of British Columbia – LIDA Homes was a silver award finalist in four categories. Finally, at the 2020 CHBA National Awards – which recognize the best in new home and renovation design from all across Canada – the company was named a finalist for ‘Whole Home - $150,000 to $300,000’ for their work on a home called ‘Chic Rustica.’ LIDA’s team credits that tide of recognition to the company’s core values, which they say “define who we are and what we do.” Those values include being reliable, being team players, having a “service mindset,” and staying committed to quality excellence. Their team also credits their “proven process,” which they call “the foundation of our custom home and remodelling experience.” That process ensures they are communicating with their clients, and serving their clients best interests, throughout the entire process – from the initial planning stages, through construction, handover, and beyond. That guided process is aided by the company’s project management software, which clients have access to throughout their project, and which they retain access to upon receiving their finished product. During the design and build, that software allows clients to review all the details of their project wherever they have web access. It helps them keep track of the project’s schedule and budget, it allows them to securely approve change orders, and it gives them a convenient platform to ask and answer questions of the company and their sub- trades. Just as importantly, clients retain access to that software even after receiving their finished product. If there’s ever an issue with their completed home, they can use that platform to quickly and simply contact the company. LIDA Homes takes pride in being responsive to those requests and providing prompt solutions. OCTOBER 2020
