Meet the Team
Gilles Lesage

After initial certification, he continued to get certified with New Home construction as well as Multiple Unit Residential Buildings. In 2011, Gilles moved to Kelowna to pursue the same course of business with home inspections and energy efficiency evaluations. This led to more involvement with provincial programs and now BC building code for Energy Efficiency with New Home Construction.
