Paragon
An aging entrance to your basement suite here can lead renters to assume the interior is just as neglected. This first impression can keep your unit empty for weeks.
A well-sealed entryway prevents damp air from entering. It protects against mold and keeps the suite comfortable year-round, even during the wettest months.

Improving Suite Exteriors
The entrance to a basement suite is important for tenants and adds to your home’s curb appeal. If the entry looks old, with peeling paint or warped siding, it can make the whole property seem neglected. A focused exterior refresh can make a big difference.
We replace worn siding with moisture-resistant materials. We also install energy-efficient windows and secure doors that reduce drafts. Proper sealing around the entrance keeps rain and pests out. Upgrading basement suite exteriors in Vancouver creates an entry that is both welcoming and durable.
In Deer Lake, many basement suites were added later and often have mismatched exterior finishes. A poorly sealed entrance can allow moisture to seep in, causing rot and mold around the frame. Our exterior upgrades tackle these problems directly.
The area’s closeness to the lake increases humidity, so we use siding and trim that resist warping. We also ensure proper grading and drainage around the entrance to direct water away. These details keep your suite dry and looking good for years.
Entry Construction in Deer Lake
In Deer Lake’s damp climate, we install fiber-cement siding with a vented rain-screen gap behind it. This gap lets moisture that gets past the siding drain and dry out, which helps prevent rot in the walls. Around the recessed suite entrance, the siding ends above a metal Z-flashing that directs water away from the foundation.
We use fiberglass or steel entry doors with thermal breaks and multi-point locking. These doors are sealed with compression gaskets to block wind-driven rain. We also install vinyl-frame casement windows with sloped sills and integrated drip caps to shed water quickly. All openings are flashed with a self-adhered membrane, layered in a way that directs water to the drainage plane.
The basement suite entrance is a key point in the building envelope where the above-grade siding meets the foundation waterproofing. In Deer Lake’s rainy climate, having a continuous drainage plane behind the siding is vital to prevent trapped moisture. We extend the water-resistive barrier down past the sill plate and lap it over the foundation damp-proofing to create a path for water to exit.
We ensure that head and sill flashings at the door are sloped to direct water outward. The jamb flashings work with the window buck. To keep the space energy-efficient, we insulate the rim joist area and seal all gaps with low-expansion foam. This helps reduce air leakage and the risk of condensation, keeping the suite entry dry and efficient all year.
Deer Lake Suite Regulations
A secondary suite in Burnaby is allowed only as an accessory use in certain residential and agricultural zoning districts (e.g., R1–R6, R9–R12, RM6, A1–A3). It must be fully contained within the main dwelling unit, and only one suite is allowed per dwelling. For your Deer Lake property, any exterior work to create or change entrances, windows, or egress for a basement suite must follow these zoning and floor-area limits for your lot’s zone.
Under Burnaby’s Secondary Suite Program, you need a Building Permit to add or legalize a basement secondary suite. The lot must be suitable for a dwelling type that allows suites, like a single-family home, duplex, multiplex, or rowhouse with suites. Any exterior remodeling related to creating or upgrading a basement suite—like new exterior doors, windows, or changes to exterior walls for egress—must go through the City’s permit process and meet building and fire safety standards.
Burnaby’s Noise or Sound Abatement Bylaw limits construction, alteration, and repair work on buildings in residential areas to certain hours: usually 7:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. Monday to Friday, 9:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. on Saturdays, and not at all on Sundays or statutory holidays. Exterior remodeling work to build or modify a basement suite at a Deer Lake home—such as cutting openings, installing windows or doors, or other noisy construction—must be done within these hours to avoid breaking the bylaw.
