Hi, my name is Barrie and I came to Shake n’ Tile in July of 2005. My position with the company is primarily customer service. Essentially, I personally ensure the happiness and overall satisfaction of every homeowner we work with. I enjoy sports (golf, fastball and hockey to name a few), in my spare time. I grew up in the Surrey area and remain a happy single guy. I love this place - Shake n' Tile is giving me the chance to prove my customer care and management skills!

Professional Background
My professional background is primarily financial in nature, being involved in the accounting field for 17 years. I started with Shake n’ Tile Steel Roofing in January 2005 as the controller/general manager under the then owner Tom Anderson. As my knowledge of the products increased and I saw first hand that Shake n’ Tile was a different type of roofing company with a style and product unique and intriguing. My involvement grew to the point where Tom asked me if I would be interested in purchasing the company as he had other interests he wanted to pursue. I discussed the option with my wife, Lisa and her brother Barrie Gagne, at length and we felt that it would be a very good opportunity for us. In July 2005 we took over the reins and have never looked back.

Personal
On a personal note, Lisa and I have been married since 1988, we have two energetic teenagers, Shaun and Courtney, both of whom spent part of their summer vacations assisting Shake n’ Tile in it’s transition of ownership. I take pride in my community, having been born and raised in the lower mainland of BC and I am a member of Surrey’s Search and Rescue team.
