Wood Be Art Renovations is a unique, high-end design-build firm based in New Westminster, BC. Specializing in wood cabinetry and known for their exceptional craftsmanship, the company provides creative, custom residential renovation contracting services across the Lower Mainland. Brandy Kawulka, one of the founders and owner of the company, points out two key factors that guide how the company does business and that help set them apart in the industry. “We bring proven and vetted trades specialists and highquality materials supported by simple online communication tools for our clients with every job we do,” she says. “I always try to over communicate at every step along the way so that everybody knows what’s going on, when it’s going on, who’s coming, when they’re coming, and what’s the next step of the process even if I’ve talked about it a hundred times before.” Her quality control and quality assurance are tied into what she calls “reverse engineering” that gives her a different perspective in the building process: “I’m a red seal cabinet maker and oftentimes we’re some of the last people into a project so I tend to look at things from that perspective. I saw how errors early in the construction process caused issues for other trades that followed and the final product and I plan and manage our jobs to avoid these problems.” “Then, also, I basically do a daily lap around the city to all of our projects making sure that the things that are supposed to be in place are where they’re supposed to be. I try to head off any problems by having my boots on the ground, making sure when our sub trades have a question, I’m there to answer it.” Another strong point for Wood Be Art is how accurate and transparent they are early in JANUARY 2024
