Vancouver
Net Zero Residence

Full-cycle project management—from identifying and acquiring the lot to delivering a carefully built, high-performance home.

One vision.
One accountable lead.

High-performance construction succeeds when design, cost, schedule, procurement, and building science are managed together. Pacific Fort leads every stage of this residence, protecting the client’s goals while giving the entire consultant and trade team a clear path forward.

From the right property
to a verified envelope.

Our role extends well beyond site supervision. We connect early decisions to the final result, maintaining continuity through the moments that have the greatest impact on value, quality, and performance.

Performance proven
before the finishes go on.

At the mid-construction airtightness test, the home achieved 1.1 air changes per hour—exceeding the project requirement of 1.5 ACH. Testing at this stage confirms the envelope strategy while details are still visible and correctable.

Performance is built
into every stage.

From demolition through enclosure, Pacific Fort documents and coordinates the work that will eventually disappear behind the finishes. This is where quality, efficiency, and long-term value are protected.

Start before you
buy the lot.

Early construction insight can clarify feasibility, risk, budget, and opportunity before the largest decisions are made.
