Our Story

Built by hand,
defined by kind

HandKind Construction Co. is a specialised renovation company serving Brant County, Brantford, Paris and nearby communities. We focus on high-end renovations, additions and ARUs, handled by a tight, skilled crew.

Jason Gagnon has worked in residential construction since his early teens, beginning alongside his carpenter father. He completed a three-year Construction Engineering program and went on to manage projects exceeding $70 million with major builders across Canada. He founded HandKind Construction in Paris, Ontario to bring that level of organisation and craft to residential renovation, and now leads the company's management team and standards for every project.

We're not the lowest bid. We're the contractor who still answers your call six months after the project closes — because the relationship doesn't end at handover.
