Services
Working throughout the Province and within Manitoba's major cities and towns, we partner with the Province, Municipalities, City Hall and private developers to improve the standards of roadway infrastructure. Smoothness, density and quality paving are the attributes we are known for and have been recognized for.
We are industry leaders in concrete paving, from residential streets and subdivisions to provincial trunk highways, we have constructed many of the roadways being used by motorists across Manitoba and interprovincially. We are committed to the principles of building safer roads, reducing long term maintenance costs and extending the life cycle of transportation infrastructure.
With our extensive pit and quarry holdings throughout the province we are able to provide our clients a wide variety of solutions to material supply. Our capacity and reliability to produce high quality construction materials ensure our projects never have availability, schedule, delivery or quality issues.
We began our business building sewer and water infrastructure. Now with nearly one hundred (100) years of experience in Underground services we are able to handle projects of differing sizes and complexities. Being at the forefront of innovation and delivery, our Underground Division, was the first in Manitoba to adopt and utilize mechanized tunneling, now one of our key areas of expertise.
Capability and reliability are supported by having the right equipment and maintaining it to OEM standards. The key to a project's success is having the right equipment to suit the requirements of the job. Well maintained equipment suited to the work at hand combines the reliability and efficiency to produce cost effective results for our Clients.

Most unorganized place i have seen, their construction workers will walk out in front of you because they are not paying attention. The other day there was a piece of equipment sitting on the railway crossing and the crossing lights were going off, and their trucks didn't even bother to slow down and I almost got hit because they decided to go around us. They are hypocrites. I tried to call to complain about almost being hit but they did not care at all!!

This company is currently working on resurfacing Highway 4 west of Morden, and though the end product might be fine, I can't say the overall process has been good. In a 10 mile stretch, there have been up to 3 different places where vehicles are forced to wait, which especially during 'rush hour' times, is highly inconvenient for those attempting to get to and from work. A drive that should be 10 minutes, should never get dragged out to half an hour. As the asphalt was being ripped up, there was absolutely no concern for people who drive cars, rather than trucks, and the potholes have been atrocious
