Transforming Construction with Strategic Partnerships and Climate-Tech Innovation
PermaTech EcoSolutions was founded by Brent and Joe Atkinson, who built one of Eastern Ontario’s largest building supply, trade labor, and custom home design companies. Their combined 30 years of project management experience, spanning hundreds of job sites, equips PermaTech with a rare and strategic perspective that few, if any, competitors can match.

Future-Proof Projects with PermaTech Insight
Even large developers don’t get the visibility into blind spots and opportunities to optimize the way PermaTech does. We don’t just build projects, we future-proof them. Our insight into market fluctuations, labor availability, and regulatory shifts allows us to anticipate challenges and adjust in real-time, ensuring smoother execution and stronger financial returns.
Most importantly, PermaTech’s experience bridges both traditional building methods and progressive climate-tech solutions. We bring confidence and strategic insight into the adoption of cutting-edge technologies, modular systems, recycled materials, and renewable energy integration, that reduce costs, collapse build times and enhance long-term asset value.
The result is more predictable, profitable, and ultimately more affordable projects for the developer and the end consumer.
The name “PermaTech” reflects our commitment to permaculture principles, creating interconnected, resilient systems within the construction ecosystem to benefit communities and the environment.
