Who We Are

About Roots Property Management Co-operative

Roots was founded in Surrey by people who saw the same problems over and over; unreliable contractors, poor communication, and workers treated as disposable. We built something different. As a worker-owned co-operative, every member of our team has a stake in the quality of the work we deliver. We provide integrated property maintenance for owners, strata councils, and property managers across Metro Vancouver and the Lower Mainland, handling everything from unit turnovers to seasonal upkeep under one roof. We're not here to extract value from your building. We're here to steward it.

Meet the People Behind the Work

Roots is built on the skills and commitment of our worker-owners; tradespeople and maintenance professionals who take pride in doing the job right.

  • Edgar

    8+ Years Experience

    Edgar co-founded Roots after nearly a decade in property maintenance across the Lower Mainland. He started the co-op because he believed the work could be done with more accountability and more respect — for clients and for the people doing the job.

  • Matt

    [X]+ Years Experience

    Matt brings [X] years of hands-on experience in [trade/area] to every job he takes on. As a worker-owner at Roots, he's committed to doing the work right the first time and standing behind it.

How We're Built

Worker Cooperatives

Roots isn't a franchise or a corporate contractor. We're a cooperative; built, run, and owned by the people doing the work. That structure shapes everything about how we operate, how we treat clients, and what we're building together.

What is a worker cooperative?
A worker cooperative is a business owned and democratically governed by the people who work in it. At Roots, every team member is, or is working toward becoming, a worker-owner. That means we share in the decisions, the responsibilities, and the rewards of the business together.
Why does it matter that Roots is worker-owned?
Because the people on site have a direct stake in the outcome. When the workers own the business, quality and reputation aren't someone else's problem — they're our livelihood. That tends to mean more care, better communication, and follow-through that lasts.
Do I pay more because you're a cooperative?
No. Our pricing is honest and competitive. The co-operative structure changes who benefits from the work — our team rather than outside shareholders — not what you pay for it.
