Thompson Valley Glass's roots began with Evan apprenticing in the Vancouver and surrounding area at the age of 18 as an apprentice spending a decade erecting many smaller but intricate and prestigious buildings to colossal glass structures working alongside many of the most reputable glass companies and very best glaziers and contractors all over the province. He received his inter-provincial Red Seal certification Diploma on the 15th of October, 2007, at the young age of 22 years old working as a lead hand on various projects and was soon running his own crew as a site foreman by his mid 20's. By the end of 2011 Evan moved away from big city life and the second chapter of our glass journey began.

 

It was in Kamloops where Evan could devote much more of his time to his family, while spending much of his spare time enjoying the great outdoors. He began working on smaller scale projects beginning at the Thompson Rivers University Old Main Building renovation in 2012 and then primarily working on new homes and smaller commercial construction sites all over the BC interior while acting as a project manager and servicing many local business's and residents in between. With two decades of extensive experience as a construction leader on award winning architecture, from high end custom homes to numerous high rise skyscrapers, multiple skytrain stations, convention centers, community centers, border crossings, university's, airports, hotels, condominiums, skylights, mall fronts and storefronts, to custom shower glass installations, wine rooms, railings, fixing old dilapidated storefront entry's and changing out sealed units from all types of window systems, from the one of a kind to obsolete, from new construction to demolition and renovation there was little left for Evan to achieve in the glass construction industry, with the exception of owning and operating his very own glass company.
