Meet Our Home Building & Renovations Team, Shakespeare Homes & Renovations
Shakespeare Homes & Renovations Inc serves the great communities in North and West Vancouver by providing high-quality custom built homes and modern renovations in North and West Vancouver.
Mark Cooper – President, Project Manager
Raised on the North Shore in a family of artists, Mark found his interest after taking the construction course at Carson Graham high school in 1983, before graduating from the BCIT construction program.
A journeyman carpenter and a home construction contractor for more than 26 years, Mark incorporated Shakespeare Homes in the early 1990’s.
For several years, Mark took time to help launch a high-tech company into the number one seller in North America, dealing with Fortune 500 companies. This means he brings to Shakespeare Homes both financial stability and solid professional experience in working through business issues.
As a long-standing member of the HAVAN (Homebuilders Association Vancouver), Mark is the Chairman of their Board, also serves as the Chair of its Custom Renovators and Home Builders Council and is active in its seminars and training events. As well as mentoring newer construction companies and trades, he is supporting the school district’s on-site introduction to construction by hosting regular site-progress visits for grade 11-12 students. Mark’s extensive expertise extends to both building science and geotechnical engineering, where his profound understanding informs the implementation of energy-efficient techniques as a certified Built Green and Energy builder.
