Meet our owner, Leeve
Gneiss Contracting was founded to address one of the most persistent issues in the renovation industry, trust.
Leeve began by building North Van Handyman, focusing on smaller projects and everyday home upkeep. Through that work, a pattern quickly emerged; clients weren’t just looking for help with minor repairs, they were looking for someone they could trust with larger, more complex renovations.
Leeve built this company, and his last one, on the belief that good construction starts long before the first tool is picked up. It begins with listening, clear communication, and a genuine understanding of how people live in their spaces. From there, it’s not just about delivering quality workmanship, but about treating every home with the level of care and respect it deserves.
The goal is simple, raise the standard of what clients should expect from their contractor.

Our Process
Overview
The underlying approach to how we treat you and your home remains rooted in the same care, attentiveness and expertise we express in every job.
-
The first step is simple — reach out and tell us about your project. We'll have a conversation to understand what you're after, answer any early questions, and figure out whether we're the right team for the job.
-
We come to you and walk the space in person before putting anything on paper. This is where we ask the right questions, assess what's involved, and start building a clear picture of your project.
-
After the consultation we put together a detailed, itemized quote — not a ballpark. We walk you through every line together so you have a full understanding of the scope before committing to anything.
-
Once you're ready to go, we get you on the schedule and walk you through exactly what to expect from start to finish. Before work begins, you'll have a clear picture of the timeline, who will be on site, and how the project will unfold.
-
Throughout the build you'll always know what's happening and why. We keep the site tidy at the end of every day, the updates regular, and handle anything unexpected with honesty and care.
-
When the work is complete we do a thorough walkthrough together and take care of any final touches before sign-off. Everything we build is backed by our two-year workmanship warranty.
We stand behind our workmanship. If something isn't right with work we've completed, we'll come back and make it right. We offer a two-year warranty on labour, exceeding the industry standard, as we're confident leaving our name on our work.
