Ron has worked in construction since 1977. He started his own construction company in the UK in 1983 concentrating on the booming New Build market.

Improving efficiency across the board.
In 1994 Ron returned to the building industry, this time on Renovation and Property Maintenance. He quickly established his company as a leader and innovator in this field. When he sold the company in early 2004 it had over 660 properties to maintain in the Portsmouth area.
Ron started UK Trades when he arrived in Canada to train his sons in the industry. As he worked the demand for his services grew. More workers were employed mainly European as this is the style and work ethic best suited to Ron’s ideals.
Today UK Trades remain the only Certified window installers in the Okanagan. Working on numerous Energy Efficient Renovations throughout the interior of BC.
