Graham has a deep rooted worldview
that is the lifeblood of all of his endeavors. He believes we should
deal honestly with people, do things right, and do the right things.
Growing up in the same Ballard craftsmen that his parents live in
today, Graham recognizes how important it is to have strong communities
and strong families, and takes great pride in serving both. Graham is an alum of Trinity Western University in Langely, British
Columbia where he pursued Biblical Studies. He took on various construction
jobs throughout college from concrete to wood framing, but didn't settle
into a career in the industry at that time.
After college Graham had the opportunity to help run a business as
the director of a local swim school. There he learned how to develop
and care for his customers most prized possessions... their children.
This experience also cemented his understanding that communication
and customer service are the most important factors in the success
or failure of a business. Graham transitioned out of his role at the swim school to pursue his
love for writing, recording, and performing his music. It was during
this season that he discovered a new creative outlet... remodeling.
Initially taking on small remodel jobs to help support his music career,
Graham stumbled upon a career that combined so many of his loves. To
him, remodeling is all about meeting new clients, sharing the excitement
of creative possibility, working together to come up with a plan that
works, and engaging his staff and sub contractors to give families
the joy of a dream realized.
