Founder | Chief Build Officer
Travis is a versatile General Contractor known for his creative approach, technical expertise, and unwavering attention to detail making him highly effective in project implementation. With a background in Architectural Technology and over 25 years of hands-on experience, Travis has led a wide range of projects from full-scale home renovations to custom new builds. For Travis, the greatest reward is seeing the dramatic transformation from before to after on every successful project.
Tana never imagined that overseeing a renovation on a rental property would change the course of her career. What started as a necessary update for a unit she managed quickly turned into something more, a passion. From coordinating trades to selecting finishes and watching the transformation unfold, she found herself fully immersed in the process. But it wasn’t just the final-result that hooked her, it was the reaction from the client. Seeing their excitement, knowing she played a role in shaping their space, sparked a deep sense of purpose she couldn’t ignore.
At the same time, Travis had been working in the construction industry for years. Known for his precision, reliability, and hands-on expertise, he had built a reputation for quality workmanship. What he loved most was the satisfaction of building something tangible like framing a wall, levelling a floor, or solving unexpected challenges on site. He was the kind of person who thrived on turning ideas into reality.
As friends Tana and Travis would discuss their work experiences and ambitions and quickly recognized the potential of combining their strengths. Tana brought natural leadership, planning, and a steady, composed presence to every project. Travis brought the technical know-how and problem-solving skills needed to turn ideas into finished spaces. Together, they formed the perfect balance of planning and execution.
They launched their home renovation company with a shared goal: to create a boutique-style service that treats each home as unique, each client as a partner, and each project as a reflection of the homeowner’s goals. Their personalized approach, attention to detail, and genuine care for their clients have shaped the business ever since.
Today, Tana and Travis continue to build not just beautiful spaces, but long-lasting relationships, one renovation at a time.
