Following in the footsteps of his carpenter father, Dennis helped build his family’s home.  After earning his BA degree at Simon Fraser University and spending five years working with emotionally disturbed teens, he returned to carpentry. He later built several custom homes on the West Coast.

Dennis co-owned the very successful Raincoast Construction Ltd. in Vancouver, which specialized in high-quality residential custom renovations.  He moved to Toronto 22 years ago, first to work in commercial construction and then to offer his expertise in quality renovations in a different way to both residential and commercial clients.

About the approach of Bryant Renovations, Dennis comments, “The more authentic and transparent we can be with our clients, the more they gain not only a fine renovation, but also the understanding that we respect their home and opinions and are working honestly with them toward their goals.

In other activities, Dennis has sat on community boards of directors and has volunteered his time as a Boy Scout leader, as a teacher of T’ai chi, and as a children’s ski instructor.
