Meet the guy behind OkShu
Small-town kid from Sicamous, now raising a family in Vernon, and the hands-on owner of OkShu Contracting.
My story
I grew up in Sicamous, right on the water. Summers on the Shuswap, winters that teach you to build things properly, and a hometown where your name and your handshake still mean something. That's the way I was raised, and it's how I run OkShu.
These days I'm based in Vernon with my family, working the whole corridor from the Shuswap down to Kelowna. I started OkShu, short for Okanagan–Shuswap, to do renovations the way I'd want them done on my own house: show up, do the work properly, clean up, and stand behind it.
By trade I'm a carpenter, and I run every OkShu project start to finish. I do the work I'm best at myself and bring in trusted local trades for the rest, all held to the same standard. You get one point of contact and my name on all of it.
When I'm not on a job site, you'll probably find me with my family, out on the lake, or behind a drum kit, since I play in a few local bands around town. Music, family and building things with my hands: that's pretty much me. I bring the same energy to your project that I bring to everything else.
If you want a contractor who treats your home like his own, I'd love to hear about what you're planning.
What I stand for
Same person quotes your job, runs it and sees it through. Anyone I bring in is someone I trust to meet my standard.
You'll get my actual read on what's worth doing, including when the cheaper option is the smarter one.
Licensed, insured, and built to last. I stand behind everything I put my name on.
