Longman Developments Ltd is a general contractor and real estate developer based in Gibsons, on BC’s Sunshine Coast. David Longman started the company in 1989 as Longman Construction and incorporated as Longman Developments in 2003 as the project scope expanded to include multi-unit residential and commercial construction.

Why it’s on home.renovation.reviews
Longman has been building on the Sunshine Coast since 1989 — over 35 years in a place where the building environment, marine climate, ferry logistics, and distinct design sensibility all reward contractors who have worked through many different project types. Their development track record extends from single custom homes to multi-unit housing, which is a meaningful range for a regional builder.
