Service You Can Trust, We Work For You
Built for the Cowichan Valley Climate
Living near Lake Cowichan and the river means dealing with heavy rain, shaded lots, and damp winters. Standard building methods just do not hold up out here.
At J Plus Contracting, we build outdoor spaces designed for Vancouver Island weather. Jameson leads every project using high-grade BC and local cedar, rot-resistant hardware, and proven building methods. Whether you need safe stairs down to the water, a custom timber deck, or a private outdoor sauna, we build it right so your family can enjoy it for decades.
Built for Vancouver Island's damp weather with quality BC cedar and honest local craftsmanship. Locally owned and based in Lake Cowichan, J Plus Contracting creates long-lasting outdoor spaces across Youbou, the lake, and the Cowichan Valley. From steep lake-access stairs and custom timber decks to wood-fired saunas, Jameson builds each project to withstand heavy winter rains and lake weather. We source our cedar from local mills, work with trusted local trades, and build structures meant to last for generations.
