Become part of our team
Our project team works closely together, and regular meetings are held to review the status of each project, ensuring there are no gaps in the scope of work.
Our meetings also provide an opportunity to discuss any issues that have arisen and how to resolve them in the most efficient manner. We currently have six site superintendents on staff (one that is Gold Seal Certified) and approximately 30 employees including: various administration and accounting staff, project/construction managers, project coordinators, and an estimating team, as well as site safety officers employed on each of our projects.
