Built on a simple idea — that homeowners deserve quality craftsmanship, straight answers, and a team they can trust from the first handshake to the final nail.
Honest Renovations was founded on a belief that the renovation industry needed something it too often lacks: honesty. Co-founders Jaswant Dhillon and Kulwant Sandhu combined their decades of hands-on experience to build a company where every client is treated with respect, every budget is taken seriously, and every project is completed with the same pride they would put into their own homes.
With over 50 years of combined experience between them, Jaswant and Kulwant bring deep expertise across the full range of residential renovation trades — plumbing, electrical, drywall, tiling, painting, and custom cabinetry and millwork. Their trusted team extends that expertise to painting, flooring, landscaping, gas fitting, appliance installation, and millwork, giving clients a single point of contact for every aspect of their renovation.
Serving Metro Vancouver and the Lower Mainland, Honest Renovations is a company built on three unchanging commitments: punctuality, budget adherence, and integrity. When you work with us, you'll always know where your project stands, what it costs, and when it will be done.
Jaswant brings decades of hands-on trade experience to every project Honest Renovations undertakes. His deep background in plumbing and electrical systems forms the technical backbone of the company's renovation work, ensuring every project is built right from the inside out. Jaswant is known among clients for his straightforward communication and his unwavering commitment to doing the job properly — never cutting corners, never leaving a detail unfinished.
His approach is simple: treat every client's home the way he would want his own treated. That standard of care runs through every project he oversees, from the roughest rough-in work to the final finishing touches.
Kulwant's expertise spans drywall, tiling, and custom millwork — the crafts that define the finished look of any renovation. With years of experience working on projects of every scale across Metro Vancouver, he has developed a refined eye for detail and a standard of finish work that clients consistently describe as exceptional. Kulwant oversees the quality of every build, ensuring that what homeowners see when the work is done reflects the highest level of craftsmanship.
His philosophy is that great renovation work should be invisible — the result should look and feel like it was always meant to be there. That pursuit of seamless, lasting quality defines everything Kulwant builds.
Our co-founders bring direct, hands-on mastery across every core trade that goes into a quality home renovation.
From rough-in to finish plumbing, our founders have deep expertise in residential plumbing systems — supply lines, drain work, fixture installation, and everything in between. Whether it's a kitchen sink relocation, a new basement bathroom, or a complete replumb, the work is done correctly, efficiently, and to code. You won't face leaks, callbacks, or inspections failed.
Our electrical expertise covers panel work, circuit additions, pot light installation, under-cabinet and outdoor lighting, and full electrical rough-ins for new spaces. Safety and compliance are non-negotiable — every electrical job we do is performed to BC Electrical Code. Homeowners can expect clean, professional wiring and full transparency about what was done and why.
Hanging, taping, mudding, and finishing — drywall is one of the most skill-dependent trades in renovation work, and it shows in the final result. Our founders bring years of experience producing smooth, flawless walls and ceilings that paint beautifully and stand up over time. No ridges, no visible seams, no texture inconsistencies — just a clean, professional surface.
Precision tiling transforms a bathroom or kitchen from ordinary to exceptional. Our team handles all tile formats — large-format floor tile, subway tile, natural stone, mosaic accents, and custom shower surrounds. Every tile is set level, grouted cleanly, and sealed correctly for long-term durability. We take the time to plan layouts that look intentional and professionally designed.
A great paint job is about far more than colour selection. Proper surface preparation, clean cut lines, consistent coverage, and the right products for each surface make the difference between work that looks good now and work that holds up for years. Our team handles interior and exterior painting with the same care and attention to prep that defines everything we do.
Custom cabinetry and millwork are where a renovation truly becomes personal. Our co-founders bring expert-level skill in designing, building, and installing cabinets, shelving, built-ins, and trim work that fit a space perfectly and are built to last. From kitchen cabinetry to basement bar built-ins to custom closet systems, the craftsmanship in every piece reflects a deep pride in the work.
What sets them apart is the honesty. No surprises, no hidden costs, no excuses — just skilled tradespeople who genuinely take pride in every single project they touch.
