About Us

Our company history and philosophy and vision.

Our Company was incorporated in 1978 and so we have many years experience in the building trade. We are a local company with our roots on Quadra Island.

Quadrate Ventures Ltd. started with four partners and served mainly Quadra Island, thus the "Quad" in our name. Now two of the original shareholders, Richard and Steven Swanson manage and operate the company. We use as many local skilled trades as possible to complete projects and keep a sense of community pride in the process of building.

We are committed to building the best quality for the most reasonable cost in order for you to get the best value and exceed your dreams for a new home project. We work together with you to create your dream home or other building projects. When decisions are required we work with you to make them, as we are all part of the same team. We strive for complete customer satisfaction in all aspects of our business.

We are licensed residential builders in B.C. and are covered by National Home Warranty for third party liability.

Another service we provide is custom lumber kiln drying. This gives you the opportunity to use the wood from your own property for finishing projects.
