Transparency We provide detailed analysis of all budgeting, billing and timeline information and incorporate the construction process into our online project management software, allowing you to track your project through each stage.
Honesty As we work together on a project, we offer a true representation of costs, timelines and problems we anticipate before we start a job. Our reputation has been built on this platform and we will continue to operate with the upmost integrity.
Responsibility We take on projects as if we were building for ourselves. Our unique system organizes a project by specifically outlining each and every phase to be completed. At Premiere we do our best to anticipate the growths of a family or business so that a finished project continues to fulfill the needs of its occupants, for years after it’s completion.
Collaboration Most importantly, we will analyze each and every phase of a project so as to determine the best course of construction based on the clients needs. This includes working hand in hand with the team of architects, designers and skilled trade professionals in order to accomplish the envisioned outcome. At Premiere we are here to help that vision come to life!

KITCHENS & GREAT ROOMS
A chef’s dream come true The kitchen is arguably one of the most important rooms in a home. Although we all have one, and they all share similar features, every kitchen is unique to the lifestyle, preferences and choices of the homeowner. We appreciate the value a kitchen brings to a home and it’s family. Together we will explore those unique qualities and bring them to their maximum potential, creating a culinary-creating masterpiece that any master chef, or causal cook, could dream of. Dinner is served!

Each project I complete with them they leave me looking forward to the next.” — Andrew H.

OUR RESOURCES
Architects & Designers We often work with architects and designers to bring their designs to life. Utilizing our senior staff’s extensive design experience and our field crews’ regular collaboration in projects of our own design, we are uniquely qualified to discern and implement the intent of each design professional that we work with. Our commitment to design remains intact whether it is our own or not. At Premiere we continue to work hard to help these professionals in achieving their creative vision with the highest level of craftsmanship and attention to detail. At the end of the day this is our passion and we strive to bring an element of fun to every project because in reality, that is exactly what it should be!
At Premiere, our construction process is constantly evolving. We are consistently researching and implementing the most effective techniques in our continued effort to better serve our clients.

It also provides a single platform for all parties to communicate. Details are critical so the ability to have our clients involved in this way allows for each and every project to flow smoothly.

OUR PROCESS
Keeping you involved
THE PREMIERE TEAM
Chris Gillis, President Project Manager/ Lead Designer Born and raised in a family of tradesmen and entrepreneurs, Chris has been well prepared for his career in the construction industry. He began this endeavor from a very young age, and has been heavily involved in each aspect of the construction and development process. Quite literally, Chris worked from the ground up, from foundation to finishing and everything in between. After moving from Prince Edward Island, he completed his apprenticeship in Halifax alongside many skilled tradesmen. Subsequently, he was employed by an independent contractor. Chris then chose to venture out on his own, over time carving his own niche in the construction world, with a strong focus on fine carpentry.

He has led a broad scope of projects, ranging from smaller developments to executive commercial projects over $40 million. Regardless of the scale, he is known throughout the industry for consistently delivering exceptional workmanship, organization, and attention to fine detail within each aspect of the construction process. Additionally, Chris possesses an open mind, diverse creativity, and a knack for innovative ideas, along with efficient practicality. This is evidenced in his “outside the box� thinking, skill in applying new methods and technologies, and development of comprehensive building and business systems. In every project Chris works fervently to bring all of these tools together. As for life in general, it’s all about family. Chris dedicates his time to his wife Dailene and son Declan, and bases everything around what is truly important; building positive relationships.
Proud to provide customized renovations and home solutions to clients throughout Nova Scotia.
David Ward, Vice President Project Manager/ Lead Carpenter Hard working, innovative and forward thinking are just a few words that describe David Ward. David is a true craftsman and is a great believer in doing things the right way from beginning. These beliefs help him rise to each occasion when problem solving. From the smallest detail to the largest decision, David is calculated and efficient. This is evident in his work on site, and while helping clients with their most important decisions, always keeping their best interest in mind. David began his journey in the construction industry in Nova Scotia, building houses independently, before being recruited by a large residential builder in Alberta to run their on-site operations. Managing large sites provided David the opportunity to further hone the organizational skills necessary for running large projects; specifically, it equipped him to comprehend and foresee each phase of the construction process, from conception to final completion. After years in Alberta, David found himself yearning for change. This brought him to the field of executive renovation in Ottawa, Ontario. Dealing with century restorations and high end cabinetry, these markets further enhanced David’s craftsmanship, and eye for detail and expert quality.

Eventually, David relocated back to Nova Scotia where he was enlisted to run the on-site operations for Chris Gillis’ (his current business partner), custom interior firm. The two hit it off instantly, and have several hundred projects under their belt together. The two have since teamed up to form Premiere Contracting and Remodeling. David’s career is certainly very important to him, but family is first. This is a quality that he carries with him every step of the way. In his recreational time, David often be found with his trusty four-legged friend Cooper in tow; furthermore, as he is an avid sports lover, David enjoys getting out and supporting various teams throughout the community.
