Cory Filgate started the company back in 1995 to service the custom housing market in Sooke, British Columbia. Right from the start T.D.G. The Drywall Guy followed the concept of being fair — fair pricing for customers, fair wages for employees, fair treatment for everyone. This refreshing concept, as well as their dedication to quality workmanship, won the company the preferred vendor position for several custom home builders in the area.
