About NewlinesADU

NewlinesADU was created by Gabriel Viel-Côté and Thomas Chamberland, two hands-on builders who care deeply about improving housing options in the Sea to Sky region without compromising quality, sustainability, or the character of our communities.

As a dedicated division of Newlines Contracting, our focus is on designing and delivering high-quality Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs), that reflect your needs and goals.

We bring different strengths to the table:

Thomas brings decades of experience as a general contractor in the Sea to Sky Corridor, with deep relationships in the trades and a reputation for getting things done right.
Gabriel brings a background in commercial and high-end residential construction, along with a passion for innovation, efficient systems, and forward-thinking building practices.

Together, we blend practical experience with modern technology and local insight to make construction simpler, faster, and more predictable for homeowners.

What You Can Expect:

  • Local expertise in Squamish zoning, permitting, and construction best practices.
  • Clear communication and fixed pricing, so you always know where your project stands.


We know that adding an ADU is a big step.

Our job is to guide you through it with transparency, honesty, and care.
