Westcan Tel Ltd. Joins Valard Group of Companies

Aug 20, 2014
August 20, 2014 (Grande Prairie, Alta.) – Westcan Tel Ltd., an underground utility contractor based in Grande Prairie, has joined the Valard Group of Companies in an acquisition deal with Valard Construction. The Valard Group of Companies is now composed of 14 companies that offer expert solutions to utility and infrastructure projects across Canada.
 
“We are very excited about the opportunities coming to us when we join the Valard family,” say Brian and Jill Hodson, owners of Westcan Tel Ltd. “We have over 25 years of experience in the underground utility industry in northern Alberta and B.C., which makes us expert partners with Valard. As well, we now have access to resources we never had before, which we can utilize for larger and more challenging projects. It’s a classic win-win scenario.”
 
Westcan Tel Ltd. specializes in communication infrastructure, water and sewer projects and general utility construction, and has recently completed many utility projects for Athabasca, Mayerthorpe, Sexsmith, Westlock, Fort Nelson, B.C. and Woodlands Cree First Nations. Westcan Tel Ltd. has expertise in directional drilling, plowing and trenching, excavating, and hydrovac excavation and transport.
 
“Valard welcomes Brian and Jill and the Westcan Tel team into the Valard family, and we’re looking forward to sharing our expertise with them as they are with us,” says Victor Budzinski, Valard Construction’s CEO. “The company is established in Grande Prairie as a versatile, reliable company with an innate understanding of utility construction work in rugged, northern winter environments. Their expertise is an excellent addition to the wide range of specialties already offered through Valard, which provides a single point of access for clients to a full range of utility project solutions.”
