About CHBA BC

The Canadian Home Builders’ Association of British Columbia represents the residential construction industry across the province and serves as the collective voice for home builders, developers, renovators, and related industry professionals. Through a strong provincial office and a network of eight local home builder associations, CHBA BC represents more than 2,350 members working in communities throughout British Columbia.
