My concern about the environment encourages me to pursue knowledge, training and resources about healthy, eco-friendly products, materials and methods by participating in ongoing courses on mould remediation, ICF construction, R2000 building, Green Building and other related topics. My business continues to grow as a General Contractor, now employing 2 permanent crews and office staff, as well as a team of trusted, proven subcontractors. Additions One community project that I was involved with became a personal favourite: the restoration of a tired landmark building that once housed the local jail, where a new full-stage live theatre was created The Village Playhouse. Energyefficient Without exception, our experiences during the design phase, construction phase, and the follow-up phase have been very pleasurable. Soon, I became an independent contractor, working with or hiring a crew when necessary to complete a project. In 2009, we renovated and expanded a handsome office space in Bancroft for the administration of our business. For over a decade, my kitchens woodworking career was focused on training mentally challenged adults at A.R.C. This project could significantly change the fabric of life in Bancroft a bathrooms very exciting prospect for the future of our community!. "don exhibits utmost patience, is always accessible, contractor and extremely prompt in returning telephone calls, all attributes of great benefit to a client. My work has included many challenging local and out-of-town projects: the major reconstruction of a local law office, the restoration of a century farmhouse from foundation to roof & the renovation of a circa 1850 carriage house, the transformation of a small Craftsman-style bungalow and the construction of a timber-frame/ eco-log home, to name a few. Thanks again Don!". I also designed & made unique traditional wooden toys which were then exhibited & sold at various local & out of town Art Shows. Industries, to produce quality cedar patio furniture and refinish antique furniture. The work was presented at The Art Gallery of Ontario & I was awarded the Protégé Honours Award from the Arts Foundation of Greater Toronto for my project. Eventually, my woodworking career followed a different path: working for a local contractor at general construction projects, custom trim & finish work, then as a partner with another local craftsman, creating custom cabinetry and a variety of residential and commercial renovation work. I am pleased to be a member of the local Library Board and the area Lions Club and most recently joined the Bancroft Sustainable Committee, a group that will participate in determining the ecological and financial siding sustainability of a major Downtown Development & Revitalization Proposal. Just renovation days after completion, this stylish new space was the setting for our fun, original wedding onstage & an elegant reception in the beautifully restored lobby!. We assure anyone who construction commissions Don Koppin that they will enjoy a very satisfying and professional experience. As Vice-President of the Haliburton County Homebuilders Association and as a member of the Renovators Council of designbuild the OHBA, I have many opportunities to increase my industry knowledge & resources. During this time, an exciting artistic opportunity was presented to me when the recipient of the Toronto Arts Award, late jazz musician Rob McConnell, commissioned me to create a custom architectural collage. Creating beautiful living spaces in the Bancroft, Haliburton and Apsley Bancroft areas for over 20 years
