What an amazing show we have today, Gabe is an Architect Technologist and Engineer and Building Consultant all rolled into one person.  It all began with his Father who a Building Consultant from Italy but never certified as an Architect.  Find Gabe at GPF Design Services Inc. gpfdesign@hotmail.com 416 656-0134

This show is all about the structural planning and design of most residential structures, here in Ontario, building this way is Part 9 of the Ontario Building Code and Gabe dives deep into this.  Manny asks the big big big question, do engineers over engineer?  And wait till you hear what Gabe has to say about that.  Building has changed dramatically with most residential structures being big boxes with no internal, lateral supporting walls, always a challenge for every engineer.

Math, this show is all about the math.  Stay in school kids if you want to be an engineer.  What a great show for the math, the techniques, the understanding behind the building.  

The guys get talking a lot about engineer lumber and steel and more.  Gabe says something that is very important, there is a difference between a “framer” and a “carpenter”, understand his reasoning.  Gabe discusses old school vs new schoolwork and techniques from surveying to so many other construction details, from moment steel frames to support lateral walls, all glass walls and more.  

Gabe discusses, ICF, and modular building and he even did a modular addition on his own place back in 2006.  Gabe enlightens us with concrete slab structures and discuss on grade and saw cutting.  The group discusses thermobridging, cantilevering, commercial details into residential builds.  Gabe shares how triangular structure works with load transfer over openings, fascinating to hear this section.

What an amazing show and thank you Gabe so much for sharing so much, educating us and our listeners.  Thank you.

#148 Engineer and Architect in one Gabe Faraone from GPF Design Services Inc is here

Jason of The Keystone Contractor is on the show finally, been chatting on IG for years and it’s a great pleasure to have him on the show.  Huge shout out to his lovely wife, Laura for baking these amazing goodies for me, OMG, so good, thank you so much.

Jason has been in construction for as long as he can remember, high school to the military to anything and everything during his 20’s.  A self-taught tradesperson where he will try to educate himself as best and as most as he can and do a great a job and onto the next thing.  Jason has built a solid window and door install company and he knows his worth, on the days and time off he tackles bathroom and kitchen renos by selection.

Jason has seen it all, everyone is so unhappy doing the job, everyone is so quick to leave one employer for another over a couple of bucks, everyone is in it for themselves, he doesn’t’ understand it.  An injury to his arm changed things for him, not that it prevented Jason from working, surgery was on Wednesday and he was back on site on Monday, the injury was the kick in his ass that he needed to make new moves, and he did.  Jason brings up a solid point, the first 3-4K you earn in a month goes towards running your business, after that, you can start earning.  Jason brings up a great book and I have read it a few times, https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/81948.The_E_Myth_Revisited worth a read everyone.  Jason does a shout out to one of his window suppliers, https://www.panes.com/?utm_source=google&utm_medium=organic&utm_campaign=local&utm_content=Mississauga

Jason considers himself the Aspirin of Construction, he understands what it takes to make the scope move forward.  Jason is a no bullshit tradesperson and he expresses as much with all his clients, suppliers and subs, he doesn’t smoke, drink and has a 0 tolerance cell phone and social media usage on site policy.  As we get older I’m fascinated how little we as tradespeople know about health and in your 20’s you should already be thinking about what’s going into your body, Jason shares some great insight, discussing Dr. Jason Fung’s book, the complete guide to fasting, worth checking out.  Jason’s biggest motto is, Adapt, Improvise and Overcome and it has served him very well.
What an amazing show and thank you Jason so much for sharing so much, educating us and our listeners. Thank you. Find Jason at the following The Keystone Contractor @thekeystonecontractor on IG and FaceBook www.thekeystonecontractor.com  and contact him on his email at info@thekeystonecontractor.com for your next project.

#151 The Keystone Contractor is on the show – Jason has a lot to say about The Construction Life

#163 Kevin Carty the Friendly Mason From Irish Farmer to Autoparts to Mason in Canada

We have a great show, talking about insulation, all types of insulation, batts, cellulose, closed cell, open cell and sound proofing.  James walks us through his first year running his own business and the last 9 years working with his dad who has been insulating for 35 plus years, how the batts have changed.

James discusses different types of insulations and applications, and he knows his building code.  We go from old 2x4 walls of the 80’s and 90’s to R24 of today to spray foam, proper spray foam and attic insulating.   There is a lot of skill and building code understanding when it comes to proper insulating, it’s not as easy as others might think and always remember, a good insulator has a good grasp on building code because as James mentions, they are the last trade before things get covered up, that means inspectors will take longer to assess.

We have a great conversation about crews, where to work, how far to travel, why is there so much work outside of the core and the standards that James has built his business on.  James discusses working in Canada’s capital, Ottawa and how it’s different there than any other major city.

#183 James Malinowski from JM Insul on the show to talk insulation and so much more

What a show!  Are you easily offended by the truth about construction, then this show is for you because you need to be woken up about the realties in construction and Frank, Joey and Jay say it as it is and TCL welcomes this fresh breath of air, we refuse to ever be censored!! 

Another road trip podcast, we are up in Collingwood, expect more of these road trip podcasts.  

Huge shout out to JD Hellinger of @hellingerconstruction he reached out asking me to do more shows about safety, and I will be doing more.  He recently had a jobsite accident; a split second can change your life.  We want to wish him the best, we wish him a lot of hope to recover and your fellow tradebrothers and tradesisters are here to support you brother, all the best JD.

Let’s begin, 45 years of construction experience, let that sink in, 1977 is when it all began, Frank is a very young 59, will soon be 60 and he credits his kids and the young trades for giving him his second wind, he’s back at it and loves it.  He’s going to share so much on this show, you don’t want to miss everything he has to offer.  Joey at a very young age, 7, would go to work with his Dad and learn how to do things properly.  Jay was taught by his Dad, a few years older than Frank, Jay was brought into the mix by a negative situation where Jay was the saving grace and the 3 of them never looked back.  It has been a while since we have done a tile show and what better tradespeople than the 3 gentlemen on the show today.

Having a show with different generations of trades allows us to discuss how things are today, how they were yesterday and what to expect in the future and everyone here is brutally honest.  First up!  Cleanliness!!  They can’t express how important staying clean, working clean, keeping the site clean, your tools clean, your tiles clean, everything clean, that is the number one lesson for any tradesperson especially tile setter.  We discuss clips and a lot of interesting points are brought up.  Finally, we discuss how important pails are and how so many younger trades will just throw pails out without a construction care in the world, Frank goes as far as labeling his pails, the year he got it, yes, the year and a small “F” somewhere nobody can see and he even goes further and uses wine pails, the ones with the lip so it’s easier to pull apart.  

You will never look at pencils the same way after this show, thank you Frank and I will try this.  Frank should be teaching millennial happiness courses and change the industry mindset one trade at a time.  There is so much you just must listen to this whole show several times.  Stick around for the 12 questions of construction because you do not want to miss the replies on this one.

#714 – Reinventing Metal Fabrication & The Future Of Construction Supply Chains

On this powerful episode of Building Joy, Teresa Greco and Manny Neves sit down with Sarah Dawkins, a former nurse who bravely walked away from the medical profession when she realized her approach to healing—and happiness—needed a complete shift.
Sarah’s journey wasn’t easy. Taught to see healing through a conventional medical lens, she began to question the system and the narratives she had followed for years. This internal conflict pushed her into a deep depression, leaving her struggling with forgiveness, letting go, and rediscovering joy. While many around her said, “Just forget it,” Sarah knew that happiness was more complex—and more profound—than simply moving on.
In this heartfelt conversation, Sarah shares:
🌱 How unprocessed emotions impact our well-being.
🧠 The mind-body connection and the power of personal healing.
💔 Her battle with depression and how she found the strength to rise again.
📖 The inspiration behind her book: "HEAL YOURSELF: The Remarkable Journeys of Ordinary People Healing Themselves of Dis-ease in Extra Ordinary Ways".
☀️ Why happiness isn’t about what happens to us—but how we choose to respond.
Sarah’s story is one of courage, transformation, and the radical belief that we all have the ability to heal ourselves—mentally, physically, and emotionally.
🎧 Tune in and discover how happiness isn’t something we chase—it’s something we cultivate from within.

What starts as a routine lift can easily turn into a dropped load, and when safety measures aren’t in place, the consequences are often catastrophic.
This episode isn’t just talk—we have real video content of dropped loads that have led to serious injuries and fatalities, serving as a sobering reminder of the risks that come with heavy lifting operations.
We discuss:
🔹 How loads in motion turn into deadly dropped loads—and the most common causes.
🔹 The critical role of rigging, signaling, and communication in preventing accidents.
🔹 Case studies of real incidents and what went wrong.
🔹 Best safety practices to keep workers aware, alert, and alive.
🔹 The importance of site-wide awareness—why safety isn’t just one person’s responsibility.
This episode is a wake-up call for anyone working with or around heavy equipment. One mistake, one overlooked detail, and one dropped load can be the difference between life and death.
🎧 Tune in and make sure your site is prepared. Because safety isn’t a suggestion—it’s a necessity.

#727 – Epoxy Mastery: Separating the Pros from the DIYers with Rob Soehner of Fire Epoxy

We sit down with Michael Pecchia of MP Tiles, a seasoned tile setter who’s seen the trade evolve—and not always for the better.  15 years in the business and got into the industry right out of high school.
We dive deep into:
🔸 The current state of the tile trade—what’s changed and what’s stayed the same.
🔸 Younger trades entering the industry—what they should expect and what’s missing from their skillset.
🔸 Client expectations vs. reality—dealing with budget constraints and Pinterest dreams.
🔸 The rising cost of materials—how it’s shifting pricing and impacting installers.
🔸 The lack of community in tiling today—why the trade isn’t as united as it once was.
Michael keeps it real about what it takes to survive in the tile industry, the importance of quality work over speed, and why building respect for the trade is more important than ever. If you’re a tile setter, contractor, or homeowner thinking about tile work, this is a must-listen.

#729 – Waterproofing Realities: Catching Up with Antonio Pereira of AquaStop Waterproofing

In this frustrating yet important episode of The Construction Life Podcast, Marc Fraser of Craigmhor Construction returns to share his nightmare experience trying to get an apprentice registered for Red Seal certification—a process that should be straightforward but instead is buried in government inefficiency.
We get into:
🔹 The endless hoops to jump through with the Ministry of Labour and why government organizations refuse to communicate.
🔹 Skilled Trades Ontario’s role in gatekeeping and making it even harder for apprentices to get certified.
🔹 The shocking removal of grants and financial assistance—leaving businesses to fend for themselves.
🔹 Two months in and still not completed—how bureaucracy is actively discouraging people from entering the trades.
🔹 Why most people would have quit by now—and how Marc’s persistence proves just how broken the system is.
🔹 Real solutions the government won’t listen to—because those making the rules have never worked a day in the trades.
Marc’s honest and unfiltered take exposes the flaws in the apprenticeship system and raises the question: Why is the government making it harder to fill skilled trade positions when we’re already facing a shortage?
🎧 Tune in for a must-hear conversation that every tradesperson and business owner needs to hear.

Sean a "younger" but very experienced commercial concrete "voodoo doctor' joins the show and we get the inside on big concrete projects, from bridges, skyscrapers and airports.

We get into the concrete stereotypes, the mafia, the techniques, the pride and so many things that need changing so we can continue to build a better construction industry.
