Fastening House is the leading provider of tools, and equipment to electrical, mechanical, and general contractors. With our superior service, knowledgeable staff, vendor partnerships, and exceptional customer service, we’ve built a reputation that our customers and vendors count on.

A Family Business

For over 60 years Fastening House has been a proud Canadian owned family business. In 1958, Reg Moore started “Moore’s Tool and Equipment Service” out of his basement providing on-site delivery to contractors in and around the GTA. It was then in the mid-sixties the business took on the name “Fastening House,” as we evolved into a specialty tool and fastener authority serving clients across Ontario. Eventually the business was taken over by Reg Moore’s sons, Ken and Keith. Under the leadership of the two brothers the business continued to grow, expanding our services, locations, and gaining long-term employees and clients alike.

Among these long-term, dedicated employees are Brandon Chapman and Jessee Schaefer. More than a business, the Fastening House team is a family. We’re now at another transitional phase in our business’ story, as Ken and Keith are passing the Fastening House torch to Brandon and Jessee. With their unwavering dedication to the company and their commitment to our shared values, we are proud to keep the ownership of the business within the family – the Fastening House family.

Jessee has worked with the Moore brothers for approximately five years, with his time split between Fastening House and All Trade Rentals. At All Trade Rentals he led the sales team before joining the Fastening House team, where he most recently held the title of Vice President of Sales.

Brandon has been a part of the Fastening House family for an impressive fifteen years and has experience in every aspect of the business. Brandon knows the ins and outs of Fastening House better than anyone, and most recently held the title of General Manager.

“The Moore’s trust and confidence in the continuation of the business legacy is now our responsibility. Challenge accepted!” 

– Brandon Chapman, Chief Operating Officer

Although ownership has changed, Fastening House remains dedicated to a company culture focused on comradery, accountability, trust, communication, and success. The team is thrilled that Fastening House will remain a Canadian-owned throughout this transition. While many competitors are US or European owned, the market share of Canadian-owned distributors like ours continues to shrink. But Fastening House remains proudly Canadian through and through.

What’s Next for Fastening House?

As the company moves forward with Brandon and Jessee taking the reins, excitement is growing for what’s to come. The bulk of the company’s business currently takes place in Ontario, but Brandon and Jessee have set their sights set on expansion outside of the Ontario market, with solid goals to reach a broader client base across the country.

“We stand on the shoulders of giants. Brandon and I are so thankful to the FH team to be afforded this opportunity. It is with great excitement we take this already successful business to the next level. Our competitors are nervous and with good reason; big things are yet to come!”

 – Jessee Schaefer, Chief Executive Officer

Thanks to long-held, valuable partnerships cultivated in the area, our team at Fastening House is excited to collaborate and broaden its reach as a Canadian-run business.

Everyone at Fastening House is celebrating the new ownership under veterans Brandon and Jessee and are looking forward to seeing what’s in store moving forward. Stay tuned as big things continue to happen here at Fastening House!
