Our house is 700 sq ft, our bathroom floor looks like it's going to cave in, our front door stairs is caving in as well and our patio wood looks like it's being eaten up by termites. How much would this cost us? And also to get a new foundation?

At 80,000 people, Nanaimo is the second largest city on Vancouver Island, just behind Victoria which is 110 kilometres south. With its central location Nanaimo is the distribution and transportation hub of the central and northern part of the island featuring a ferry connection directly to the mainland at West Vancouver.
Originally a coal center, the economy of now Nanaimo relies on a large pulp and paper industry along with sawmills and tourism. The recent development of high-density real estate in the Old City area, as well as waterfront development, has meant a surge in renovations and new home construction to an already steady building industry.
Nanaimo’s contractors also have a hand in new home construction in the northern portion of Vancouver Island where skilled tradespeople are scarce. They can commute to these areas and provide home renovation and commercial renovations as well. Although the yearly rainfall is high exterior renovations are not hampered by cold weather.
