General Contractor in New Westminster, BC
As a general contractor in New Westminster, BC, we work in a city where heritage isn't an afterthought - it's written into the zoning. The Queen's Park Heritage Conservation Area is one of the largest heritage conservation areas in the region, and every property within it is classified as either "protected" or "non-protected." Protected properties require a Heritage Alteration Permit for most renovations, demolitions, new construction, or laneway and carriage house development. The entire area falls under RS-4 zoning, and the city maintains detailed design guidelines plus a heritage incentives program to support owners working within the conservation area boundaries.
That classification system shapes your project from day one. A protected Queen's Park home needs a Heritage Alteration Permit before a building permit - two separate review layers, each with its own requirements. A non-protected property within the same conservation area carries fewer restrictions but still has to meet the RS-4 design guidelines. Whether you're planning a heritage restoration or a modern renovation, we identify your property's exact status on the city's heritage register at the start, then design within the rules that apply to your specific lot rather than discovering them mid-permit.

Queen's Park heritage homes demand more than standard renovation - they require a Heritage Alteration Permit, RS-4 design guideline compliance, and a builder who understands period detailing.

Why Work With Us
Why New Westminster Homeowners Work With Us
Queen's Park heritage expertise
We know the difference between a protected property that needs a Heritage Alteration Permit and a non-protected lot that still falls under RS-4 design guidelines. We pull your classification from the city's heritage register early, then design within the exact rules that apply to your Queen's Park property - not a guess at what the conservation area might require.
Heritage Alteration Permit management
The Heritage Alteration Permit is a separate review layer on top of your building permit, and it has its own design guidelines, its own submission requirements, and its own timeline. We prepare both permit packages so they align - heritage review and building permit - so your project doesn't stall between the two.
Heritage incentives program navigation
New Westminster offers a heritage incentives program to offset costs for owners working within the Queen's Park conservation area. Not every project qualifies, and the application process runs alongside your permit work. We identify whether your renovation or restoration qualifies and help you access the incentives the city makes available.
Character-home craft
Manvir Singh Mohar founded New Legend Builders and runs the company day-to-day. That matters in a heritage conservation area where period detailing, material matching, and structural sensitivity are non-negotiable. The same standard carries your Queen's Park project from heritage classification review through to final walk-through.
