The RAB Advantage - Building Process
At RAB we believe in building more than just beautiful homes, we believe in building beautiful communities; communities that are designed for living and improve with age. To achieve communities that reflect the art of living RAB has developed an innovative process committed to delivering exceptional products and service. Our homes are designed to make a statement, employing state of the art technology, quality materials and a building experience that is predictable and ensures customer peace of mind. Our building process is purposeful, customer centred, and business minded.
Carefully Chosen Communities:
A successful community begins with exceptional planning; RAB does its own land development. We carefully select specific neighbourhoods because of their location—close to parks, schools, services, transportation and entertainment; a natural setting for the lifestyle needs of your family. RAB homes are assured to be in coveted locations. Click here to view the current, future and past RAB communities.
Leading Edge Design:
Inspirational architecture begins with design. At RAB we study designs worldwide and work closely with architects and interior designers to offer beautiful homes in some of the most sought-after communities in the Lower Mainland. Each community features home designs specifically tailored to the natural elements and customer patterns for that area. The result is a wide and varied palette of unique, exciting homes ranging from entry level town homes to luxury houses with many exceptional features—including dramatic entrances, larger windows, luxurious master bathrooms, elaborate gourmet kitchens, and much more.
Customer Centred Construction:
RAB and its experienced sub-trades take great pride in the building phase of the process. It is our goal to deliver exceptionally built homes using only the highest grade materials and the latest building technologies. Exacting standards, West Coast methods, and stringent adherence to building codes and best practices ensure that your RAB home is of exceptional quality and makes RAB a leader in the industry.
Custom Options and Upgrade Choices:
To make a house your home there are many options and upgrades you may wish to consider before framing takes place. The RAB Custom Track process includes the customer in the construction process. A team of experienced sales staff guide the customer throughout the construction process and beyond.
Quality Control:
RAB ensures that we employ the best practices in the industry. Our sub-trades adhere to strict quality controls above and beyond the basic building code. Attention to detail is critical regardless of the home's price point. The last step, prior to possession, is the most critical of all. RAB won't let a customer move in until we've gone over it thoroughly to make absolutely sure that it matches the specifications exactly. Our inspection is exhaustive. We check hundreds of individual items from the exterior through the interior right down to the kitchen sink. Once we have completed our inspection, we invite the customer to inspect the home before possession. Any deficiencies are fixed immediately. Even the little details are important to us. After possession our Service Technician is just a phone call or a click away.
Customer Service:
Courteous and expert service to the customer before, during and after the sale is a priority for RAB and its carefully selected real estate agents. Customer satisfaction is paramount.
Warranty:
RAB is proud to provide a comprehensive 12 month warranty, a 2-Year warranty on materials and labour, 5-Year warranty on the building's envelope (water penetration) and a 10-Year warranty on all structural components of the home.
RAB’s staff operates according to professional ethics. We are committed to building quality homes that meet our own exacting standards, as well as yours. When a customer contacts RAB for a service call, an RAB service specialist (not a sub-trade) attends to our customer’s needs.
This warranty, in accordance with the HPO 2-5-10 warranty, is insured by the Travelers Insurance Company. Some Limits Apply. For complete details of the RAB Warranty contact the RAB sales staff or consult the BC Home Warranty website.
