Camrose County and the Battle River School Board have contracted READ Constructing Ltd. on two occasions to assist us in the design and construction of two Grader Facilities and School Bus Garages. The first project was 2013 where Read Contracting Ltd of Camrose designed and constructed a 60’ x 90’ x 16’ a new Grader/Bus Garage in Hay Lakes, with he construction completed in January 29, 2014. The second project was in May 2015, in which Read Contracting also designed and constructed a 60’ x 174’ x 16’ Grader/Bus Garage in New Norway which was completed just this January 2016. Both projects were design builds and construction of both projects was completed on time and with no change orders required.

Their staff are qualified, helpful and we appreciate their workmanship as well as the fact that we can trust that the work will be done in a professional and timely manner. In addition we have had Read Contracting perform maintenance and improvements for us on other buildings within the county.
