Essence is proud to be a family-owned and operated builder with 20 years of experience in residential construction. To date, we’ve completed more than 800 homes throughout Surrey, South Surrey, and Langley — homes built with passion and an unwavering commitment to excellence. We actively seek out locations close to urban amenities that enhance day-to-day livability and long-term value for our homeowners: schools, parks, shopping, and transit. We create homes for every generation from first-time buyers to growing families to downsizers.

At Essence, we’re passionate about what we do. From the receptionist to senior management, from site supervisor to customer service, our dynamic team of experienced professionals share a common vision: create family-oriented communities built with thoughtful design and exceptional workmanship.

But Essence is more than a builder. Many of our employees are raising their own families in Surrey and Langley, so we’re part of the neighbourhood too. We support local charities and sports teams, as well as taking an active role in community leadership and mentoring. It’s all part of being good neighbours.
