Jas. F Hope Construction Ltd. has been based in Orangeville for 40 years, with Jim F. Hope being the fourth-generation owner and his son will eventually be the fifth.
He told the Citizen, “I am the only person who does historical restorations. My father built CIBC banks.”
Although Jas. F. Hope Construction was Est. 1954, the family has been in the building business much longer than that.
“My father [also] built houses. I took it over in ’83. We do interiors and we are losing some heritage homes, due to the pressure from the Ontario Government to do density on some lots,” he said.
