Hiring a contractor is a big decision. You’re trusting someone with your home, your budget and your schedule. At Anselmo Contracting, we earn that trust the same way on every job: Red Seal certified carpentry, honest communication and a team that sees your project through from start to finish.
We’re a local framing contractor, deck builder and general contractor based in Burnaby, BC. Carpentry is our specialty, which means the structural work your project depends on (the framing, the deck substructure, the posts and beams) is handled by skilled tradespeople who take pride in getting it right. Whether you need a home renovation contractor, a custom deck builder or help with a single repair, you get the same level of care.
Why choose us
Six reasons to hire our carpenters and contractors
Red Seal Certified Carpenters
The Red Seal is the interprovincial standard of excellence for skilled trades in Canada. Your framing, decks and finish carpentry are built by Red Seal certified professionals who know the craft inside and out.
Carpentry Is Our Passion
Construction with a specialization in carpentry is what we love. Framing, deck building and structural timber work aren’t side services for us. They’re what we do best, and we enjoy taking clients from start to finish.
Built Square, Level and to Code
Good framing is the foundation of a good build. We frame and build to code so drywall, flooring, windows and every trade that follows has a straight, solid structure to work from.
Clear, Professional Communication
You’ll always know where your project stands. We talk through the plan, answer your questions and keep you informed, so you’re never left guessing about your renovation or build.
From Small Repairs to Full Renovations
We work with homeowners on everything from a single fence or deck repair to full home renovations and new construction carpentry.
Collaborative From Start to Finish
We work with you, not around you. Whether it’s a renovation, new build, update or help with construction already underway, we’ll get the project done the way you want it.

Craftsmanship that lasts
Framing and decks built for West Coast weather
In Burnaby and Vancouver, rain is a fact of life, and it’s hard on poorly built structures. That’s why we put the most care into the parts you can’t see: the framing, the deck substructure, the posts and the beams. An addition or deck is only as strong as what holds it up.
Whether we’re framing a home addition, building a custom wood deck, setting posts for a new fence or building concrete formwork for a retaining wall, we use the right techniques for the job and build it to last.
- Home addition and renovation framing
- Custom deck building, rebuilds and replacements
- Custom wood gates, fences and garden boxes
- Concrete formwork for retaining walls, sidewalks and pads

FAQ
Questions about hiring a contractor
What does Red Seal certified mean for my project?
The Red Seal is a nationally recognized standard for skilled trades in Canada. A Red Seal certified carpenter has completed their trade training and passed the interprovincial Red Seal exam. For you, it means your framing, decks and carpentry are built by qualified professionals who know the trade.
Can you handle just the framing, or the whole project?
Either. As general contractors we can take on the whole project, or we can handle only the parts you need, such as framing, concrete formwork, deck building or interior finish carpentry like baseboards, doors and trim.
Why does framing quality matter so much?
Framing is the structure everything else is built on. Walls and floors that are square, level and plumb make it easier to install drywall, cabinets, windows and flooring, and help the finished space look right and last longer.
Can you help with a project that’s already underway?
Yes. If you’re partway through a renovation or build and need skilled carpenters to help finish it, get in touch and tell us where things stand.
How do I choose the right contractor in Burnaby or Vancouver?
Look for qualified tradespeople, clear communication and experience with the kind of work you need. Ask about certifications, how you’ll be kept updated and what’s included in the quote. We’re happy to answer all of those questions before you decide.
