Strata building stock in Vancouver Island
Vancouver Island outside the CRD covers Nanaimo, the Cowichan Valley (Duncan), the central Island (Parksville, Qualicum Beach), the Comox Valley (Courtenay, Comox), and the North Island (Campbell River) plus Port Alberni and the West Coast. Strata stock is townhouse-heavy with 1970s–1990s wood-frame and concrete blocks through the urban cores.
The deadlines that apply here
- Electrical Planning Report (EPR): December 31, 2028 — under the Strata Property Act. Required for every strata of five or more lots.
- Depreciation Report: July 1, 2027 — under the Strata Property Act. Required if the strata has never had a report or its most recent report predates December 31, 2020.
- EV Ready Plan (EVRP): Voluntary, but the route to BC Hydro EV charging rebates (up to $3,000 plan, up to $120,000 infrastructure). From July 15, 2026, an EVRP, EPR, or Opportunity Assessment Report is also required for standalone EV charger rebates.
What CF Electrical Services delivers
Three reports for Vancouver Island strata corporations:
Every BC strata building type is covered under BC strata law — concrete highrises, mid-rises, wood-frame walk-ups, and townhouse complexes alike. Reports are credentialed where the regulation requires it; we assign the credential the regulation calls for so councils don't need to verify scope or seek different providers for different building types.
