Welcome to the 2024 CARE Awards

magazine showcasing Canada’s

leaders in west coast home design

and construction.

The CARE Awards and this magazine

are proudly presented by the Victoria

Residential Builders Association and our

We hope you enjoy the Gold-winning

projects demonstrating creativity,

sustainability and craftsmanship for today’s

new homes.

These criteria also apply to professional

renovations enhancing energy efficiency

and comfort for older homes.

Our Special Achievement Awards

including housing affordability, heritage

preservation, and lifetime achievement.

For more information and photos of the

2024 CARE Awards winners and finalists,

I encourage you to take advantage of

members and CARE Awards sponsors.

Enjoy and best wishes,

Mike Dalton

CARE Awards Chair

and President

Victoria Residential

Builders Association

These award-winning homes

represent years of expertise by

VRBA builders, designers, trades

and suppliers.

A wealth of knowledge is required

to professionally build homes in 2024,

supported by education and training,

consumer protection, and housing

affordability.

For more than two decades, I have

enjoyed working with VRBA members

representing the industry’s best.

Always hire a professional builder

when you are considering a new home

or renovation.

If you are planning a project, or have

any questions about the industry, feel

free to contact us at vrba.ca.

A special thank you to the many

voters participating in our popular

People’s Choice Award Contest at

careawards.ca.

Best wishes,

Casey Edge,

Executive Director

Thirty-Three Years Celebrating

Housing Excellence

VRBA Standards Important

For CARE Awards

For 33 years, the CARE Awards gala

has been a special event celebrating

the outstanding achievements of

VRBA’s builders, designers, trades and

suppliers.

For 24 of those years, I have enjoyed

seeing the many changes in both housing

and the awards event, always with the goal

of raising the bar.

MESSAGE FROM

DEBRA EDGE

Administration & Events Manager


Thank you VRBA members and our many

longstanding sponsors for supporting the

CARE Awards and this magazine.

Debra Edge, Administration

& Events Manager



We are asked at times, why the

popular CARE Awards event is

open only to VRBA members

and not to all in the residential

construction industry.

THREE IMPORTANT REASONS ARE:

1. Diligence on VRBA Applicants –

VRBA reviews contractors’ references,

followed by a Board member

conducting interviews and site visits to

verify knowledge and experience.

2. Maintain Standards – All VRBA

members must agree to our Code of

Ethics.

3. Consumer Protection – We avoid

confusion where consumers might

mistake a non-member for a VRBA

member qualifi ed by the above

diligence and standards.

We do our best to ensure CARE Awards

winners meet the standards expected by

the public and our association.

For example, awards judges don’t

have an opportunity to inspect a project’s

framing or window fl ashings. We must be

confi dent CARE Awards entrants meet a

professional standard beyond the visible

fi nished product.

Opening the CARE Awards to nonmembers

would undermine diligence,

standards and consumer protection.

A word of advice – before hiring an

“award-winning” builder, ask about the

standards supporting the awards program.

Or better yet, simply hire a VRBA

member through our popular online

Expression of Interest at vrba.ca/hire-abuilder.

COMMITMENT TO QUALITY

For more than 60 years, our skilled

craftspeople at FloForm have

been helping customers select,

fabricate, and install countertops for

both residential and commercial spaces.

From our beginnings in the 1960s to

becoming one of the largest countertop

fabricators in North America, much has

changed. Yet, one thing remains constant:

our unwavering dedication to quality

craftsmanship and exceptional customer

service. We have built a reputation for

delivering high-quality work, and that

commitment continues to drive us today.

FloForm was born from a passion for

innovation and craftsmanship. Our first

facility was a modest 7,000-square-foot

space, where a small team of talented

craftsmen brought our vision to life.

Today, with multiple retail locations and

fabrication facilities across the U.S. and

Canada, we employ over 700 people and

produce and install more than 20,000

premium countertops each year.

We offer an extensive selection of

materials, including natural stone, quartz,

porcelain, laminate, solid surface, and

butcher block, to suit every project and

aesthetic. A key part of our ability to deliver

the highest quality products comes from

our strong partnerships, particularly with

Wilsonart.

Wilsonart has long been recognized as a

leader in the engineered surfaces industry,

and their commitment to innovation,

sustainability, and design excellence

makes them a perfect partner for FloForm.

Their comprehensive catalog of highperformance

surfaces allows us to offer our

customers cutting-edge materials that are

both durable and visually stunning. Beyond

their products, Wilsonart’s reliable logistics

and manufacturing processes ensure that

we can deliver on our promise of on-time,

precise installations.

Together, FloForm and Wilsonart

create countertops that not only meet but

exceed expectations, combining beauty,

functionality, and long-lasting quality.

We take immense pride in our history

and in the direction we’re headed. Our

customers remain at the heart of everything

we do. We stand behind every project we

undertake, ensuring quality, precision, and

the kind of service that has earned us our

trusted reputation.

Benefits of walk-in tubs

Walk-in tubs have become

extremely popular in the last

decade. Walk-in tubs are exactly

what the name implies, tubs that

have large doors that open so you

can simply walk in and sit down.

You close and lock the door and

the tub fills rapidly while you are

sitting comfortably and safely

inside.

All the taps and controls are

at your fingertips. Once you are

done your bath, turn the dial and

the tub quickly drains, allowing

you to simply open the door and

walk out of the tub.

Manufacturers have optional tub

designs accommodating every

shape and size of person and

bathroom so there is usually a tub

that will fit in the space where

your existing tub or shower is.

Walk-in tubs can be as basic

as a soaker tub to as deluxe as

your own personal spa. Offering

numerous options such as heated

back, multi-speed warm air jets,

water jets, ozone, light therapy,

aromatherapy, and more. The

benefits of a walk-in tub are numerous.

Many people crave being

able to confidently get in and out

of a bath again and find relief by

just soaking in a warm tub.

Owners say they believe they

sleep better after a soothing

bath. The warm air or water

jets give a deep massage and

help to stimulate circulation,

thus carrying additional healing

oxygen throughout the body

to the hands and feet. This has

shown positive results increasing

mobility and helping to relieve

the pain and symptoms of such

conditions as arthritis, chronic

back pain, fibromyalgia, diabetic

and peripheral neuropathy, as

well as various other acute and

chronic conditions.

The British Columbia and

Federal Governments are helping

people who decide to purchase a

walk-in tub now. The help comes

in the forms of a tax credit,

a Provincial Sales Tax waiver,

Go ahead and call now for a free, no obligation quote today. You’ll be glad you did

Perhaps, one

of the best

decisions I’ve

made is when

I decided to go ahead

and put a walkin tub in my house. I

no longer have a fear of falling and

this will help me live in my home

for many more years to come.”

Jean S.

and in certain qualifying cases a

$10,000 Government Grant. As

we all age and the years fly by,

many seniors are faced with the

reality that taking proactive steps

today and deciding to retrofit

their homes with a walk-in tub is

one of the best investments they

can make to help them enjoy the

home they love for many years

to come.

ISLAND WALK-IN TUBS professionally installs bath and shower products

from a Canadian manufacturer who has been in business for over 30 years.

We provide peace of mind, confidence and independent living.

Servicing All Vancouver Island

Enjoy a relaxing bath or shower with no worries using our safe walk-in tubs

and barrier free showers.

Enhancing Homes with

Thoughtful Green Spaces

E

xceptional homes extend beyond their

walls, especially in the stunning natural

environments of British Columbia.

Today’s most sublime homes exhibit a

cohesive character and style reflected in

every detail of the house and surrounding

property. BC developers who recognize the

value of outdoor spaces during the planning

stages rather than as an afterthought

significantly enhance lifestyle and property

values.

Building and design choices that achieve

this kind of unity require the expertise of

landscape professionals. Landscape design

is more than choosing plants and features;

it completes the homeowner’s vision. At

Eden Projects, they have proudly carved

a niche as construction design specialists.

While homebuilders focus on structures

and interiors, their experts create outdoor

areas that complement and enhance the

homeowner’s property and experience.

From climate considerations to matching

interior and exterior design elements,

working together from the planning stages

results in indoor/outdoor connectivity that

flows across thresholds.

Waiting until post-construction to

contemplate the rest of the property limits

choices. Buildings that seem to grow from

their environment, greenery that cools

and insulates, and rain gardens that purify

runoff must be contemplated pre-build.

Thoughtful texture and palette choices

that consider both spaces early on elevate

aesthetics: flooring, cabinetry, and fixtures

can reflect outdoor elements, and windows

become interior wall art. A multidisciplinary

professional approach achieves these levels

of development.

Whether a tranquil garden, a lively

entertainment area, or an active

recreational space, the design must cater

to specific needs and desires. A wellplanned

outdoor space should reflect the

homeowner’s lifestyle, preferences, and

maintenance capabilities, ensuring it is

visually pleasing, practical, and pleasurable.

Eden Projects designed its personalized,

white-glove approach to meet these

criteria.

Engaging a dedicated landscape design/

build professional is essential to ensuring

thoughtful integration of green spaces

into your development; their expertise fills

more gaps in a property’s functionality and

appeal than most builders realize. At Eden


Projects, they’re devoted to transforming

every project into a harmonious living

experience that seamlessly blend indoor

and outdoor environments. They encourage

builders and developers to add a seat for

us at their planning table. Danee from Eden

Projects, invites you to collaborate in the

creation of a space that reflects thoughtful

design and exceptional detail.
