Project Manager

Greg Gagne 

Growing up between Lake of the Woods and Portage La Prairie has given Greg a lot of life experience in numerous areas of the construction industry following in his dad's footsteps. Greg's dad worked on Lake of the Woods as a carpenter, boat builder, and general handy man and Greg was right there to soak it all in. After high school Greg moved to Victoria and attended Camosun College and received his Red Seal Carpentry there. He then began working in carpentry and on complex concrete work on the island. This has granted him knowledge in complex forming of stairs, foundations, and a vast range of projects for clients you would not normally see. He later moved back to Manitoba becoming a superintendent for a local general contractor proving his knowledge and drive to get the job done. As his career has progressed Greg has continued to build his skills and knowledge in concrete, framing, general carpentry, and masonry. Greg is our problem solver and uses his knowledge to ensure top quality workmanship along with meeting the expectations of our clients. In Greg's off time he is a family man spending time with his 3 daughters and wife or in the outdoors with his passions of fishing and skidooing.
