A Real Craftsman
Colin Lye. A man with serious passion and skill. Joiner by trade.
Centerline Design & Build
Colin is the man behind it all. With almost twenty years working in the Sea-to-Sky Corridor, Colin has honed his skill. Back in the day, there was slow and steady work throughout the corridor, then with the big push for the 2010 Winter Olympics Colin started working with Cam Cairns at Garibaldi Woodworks. The housing market was on a roll. Then came a bit of a stand still in growth. We’re now back to a steady climb. Squamish is growing and changing every day, with no slow down in sight.
During the Squamish slow down, he worked for MorinWood as a Project Manager and even gave it a good go in the Estimating department. Truly loving the community of Squamish though, he chose to work closer to home where he resides with his beautiful wife and their four children. Colin maintains an excellent relationship with MorinWood and his co-corkers therewithin. MorinWood is based out of Victoria on Vancouver Island.
Colin naturally stays up to date on the styles and trends of our rough, rugged and equally beautiful West Coast, primarily by the connections that he has developed and through relationships maintained.
Colin’s past experience consists mostly of fine finishing woodwork, cabinetry and stairs. Stairs are certainly where his passion lives fullest. He loves the intricate stuff of life! Having worked in Baxter Creek, SunRidge, Treetop Lane, Lion’s Bay, Horseshoe Bay, BC Children’s Hospital, and like it or not… the Trump Tower- he’s acquired a vast variety of skills and experiences that can be applied to any project.
He is again living the Squamish dream, and employed by Genesis Hardwood with his primary focus being, you guessed it, stairs and intricate pieces! Working/living in the corridor enables him to build Centerline Design & Build with the joy and freedom that our unique mountain life culture brings. He continues to astound those around him with his creativity and skillfull designs, thus birthing Centerline Design & Build. He and his wife, Susanna, are happy to serve you in the design and build of your project, whatever it may be! At Centerline, we build it the way you want it!
