Getting my start in the construction industry in 2001, I have worked in various professional trades. Starting with a home renovation company in LLoydminster, I had a good introduction to the various methods, practices and skills needed in the construction field.
I later moved to Regina where I worked for a painting company and brushed up (pun intended) on my knowledge of coatings and application methods. From there, I moved onto an insurance repair company where I developed a more robust understanding of removal and replacement practices. Next was my employment with a commercial drywall company where I learned the arts of steel stud framing, drywall, mud and tape as well as suspended ceilings. I was fortunate enough to work on some very high-end projects with some excellent mentors!
Once I had developed my skillset with those trades, it was time to transition into homebuilding where, again, I was blessed to learn from some of the most skilled tradespeople in the city. Specifically in the areas of wood framing and stucco application while also honing my painting and drywalling skills.
After that, I decided to venture out on my own and Built by Dean Contracting was born!
