The Lanark Design/Build Group

Since 1990 I have been involved in many projects throughout Eastern Ontario ranging from small renovations to large heritage restoration jobs and the construction of new homes. In recent years I have also provided carpenters on a sub-contract basis at various times to several large builders in Ottawa (Phoenix Homes, Tartan Homes, Cardel Homes, Urbandale Construction, Mattamy Homes, Larco Homes, Ashcroft Homes & Tamarack Homes) doing both preparation of homes before occupancy and pre-delivery inspection repairs and also service work after the homes are occupied. Before starting my business I studied carpentry at Algonquin College in Perth and prior to that was a Plans Examiner for the City of Guelph reviewing plans and issuing building permits for projects under Part 9 of the Ontario Building Code. I am also a graduate of the Landscape Architecture program at the University of Guelph. I have a keen interest in energy efficient building and “green” building technologies and products – used sensibly. As you can see I have had significant experience with residential building and I am more than familiar with the business of renovating and constructing homes. My business is accredited through the Better Business Bureau, I am a member of the Lanark- Leeds Homebuilders’ Association (and hence of the Ontario and Canadian associations too), registered with the RenoMark program and I am a licensed Tarion builder.
