Rolling Tides Construction Inc. was founded on a shared commitment to craftsmanship, people, and long-term vision.

More than 20 years into his entrepreneurial journey, founder Matt Rasmussen brings the same ambition, drive, and passion to the business as he did on day one. A natural team builder and culture crafter, Matt approaches construction the same way he approaches life outside of work — bringing people together around a common goal and building something meaningful through trust and collaboration.

Matt began his apprenticeship with Farmer Construction in his teens and is a Red Seal Carpenter, spending years on the tools in the residential sector. In the early days of Rolling Tides, he was deeply hands-on in every aspect of the work. While that foundation shaped how the company operates, his vision extended beyond individual projects. From the start, he saw the opportunity to build a company grounded in strong process, leadership, and long-term impact — not just construction.

That broader vision is where Lea Hazenboom has played a critical role. As a co-founder and early integrator of the business, Lea wore nearly every hat required to build Rolling Tides from the ground up — from administration, bookkeeping, and HR to working in the field as a labourer. Her deep understanding of the business formed the operational backbone that allowed the company to grow with intention.

While Rolling Tides began as a founder-led operation, it has since grown into a company supported by a dedicated team who carry these values forward. Today, Matt and Lea remain focused on leadership, direction, and stewardship of the business — ensuring the same standards, culture, and commitment that shaped the early years continue to guide the company as it evolves.
