Being recognized as Employer of the Year at the 2025 VIBI Awards is an honour, especially as a small trades contractor based in Greater Victoria. This award reflects years of effort, teamwork, and a commitment to building a positive workplace culture on Vancouver Island. It’s proof that when you invest in people, the results resonate across BC’s construction industry.

Our people are our priority. That’s why every six months, the team takes part in a month-long, fitness-based injury prevention program going above and beyond WorkSafe BC requirements. Because no one in Vancouver Island (or anywhere) should ever risk their health or well-being for a job. Looking out for one another comes first. We like to think this award is a reflection of those considerations.

Winning Employer of the Year at the 2025 VIBI Awards is more than a trophy, it’s recognition of the culture we’ve built right here in Greater Victoria. Retaining great people is everything in our trade, and we’re proud to say our industry peers across Vancouver Island see that too. We hope this award helps us share our work more widely and inspires the next generation of stone professionals to bring their craft to British Columbia.
