Custom Home Builder in White Rock
Major Homes builds waterfront and luxury custom homes in White Rock and South Surrey, from oceanfront estates along Marine Drive to family homes in the hillside neighbourhoods above the promenade.
White Rock and South Surrey offer ocean proximity, small town charm, and a growing luxury residential market. Major Homes has completed custom homes from 3,500 to 6,000 square feet in the area, with deep experience in waterfront and near waterfront construction. Building near the ocean in White Rock requires specialist knowledge: coastal setback rules, salt air rated materials, and foundation engineering for sites with high water tables. Our team brings that knowledge to every project, so the home is built to last decades in the coastal environment.
Neighbourhoods We Build In
Waterfront / Marine Drive
White Rock's most prestigious addresses, with direct ocean views and proximity to the promenade. Building here requires coastal engineering expertise and sensitivity to the beachfront character.
West Beach
A quiet residential area west of the pier with a mix of older homes and new custom builds. Many lots offer ocean views and walking distance to the beach.
East Beach
A family friendly area east of the pier with parks, schools, and community amenities. Tear down and infill development opportunities are common.
Crescent Heights
Elevated lots in South Surrey with sweeping ocean and island views. Larger properties allow for expansive custom homes with generous outdoor living spaces.
Building Considerations
- +Coastal setback and flood construction level requirements
- +Salt air resistant material selection for longevity
- +High water table foundation engineering
- +City of White Rock vs. City of Surrey jurisdiction differences
- +Heritage character preservation in core White Rock areas
Frequently Asked Questions
Waterfront construction in White Rock requires compliance with flood construction level regulations, coastal setback rules, and salt air material specifications. Foundation systems may need to account for high water tables, and exterior materials must resist salt corrosion. We specify marine grade hardware, sealed concrete foundations, and weather resistant cladding for all coastal projects.
Yes. White Rock is its own municipality with distinct bylaws, but many of our projects are in adjacent South Surrey under the City of Surrey's jurisdiction. We are experienced in both permit processes and building requirements.
