Our company believes its important to demonstrate a strong community presence and be a responsible neighbour. We are proud of our efforts and can speak to two ambitious projects we completed in the Township of Puslinch including the revitalization of the historic Ellis Chapel and the maintenance of the Howitt Memorial Cemetery.
