[ Skills ]

Experience In Carpentry

In order to give his clients a great, cost-effective design, Edward studied Level 1 and Level 2 Carpentry at BCIT.

Carpenters’ abilities are appreciated in many fields, from the construction and renovation of residential to commercial projects. Working hand in hand with builders, contractors, and directly with clients, Edward strives to make every project a smooth transition from designing a concept the client will love to creating a project an engineer will find practical, and finally providing all the details necessary for the builder.

His hands-on experience in building has given him a unique perspective when designing. Edward offers cost-effective designs and provides details that he knows will help a carpenter out in the field. For example, having someone who knows how a home is actually framed helps create a design that is feasible in real life, not just in theory.

Having a designer with hands-on carpentry experience means better communication, practical designs, and smoother projects. Trust Edward to bring your vision to life with expertise that goes beyond the drawing board.
