“From design to completion, we communicate closely with customers, city officials, consultants and trades people to ensure a successful project for all involved,” explains Brad.
Brad’s pedigree was honed working many years as Lead Carpenter, and eventually Site Superintendent on a multitude of large-scale concrete constructions and commercial projects. Since Athecon’s inception, the team has developed strong working relationships with builders such as AFC Construction, Saywell Contracting Ltd, Kinetic Construction Ltd, MKM Projects Ltd, PCL, Tectonica Construction Management, TS Williams Construction Ltd and Windley Contracting Ltd, to name a few.

With Brad’s years of experience and the combined knowledge and expertise of a dedicated crew, Athecon Projects Inc has created a reputation of exceeding client expectations, meeting critical deadlines and remaining on budget.
Known for high-quality concrete work, from large architectural retaining walls to complex water treatment plants, hydroelectric structures, and numerous commercial, industrial and residential projects, Athecon’s skilled crew have the know–how to take projects from blueprint to reality, using organized planning, accurate layout, and attention to detail for consistent, quality results.
Brad and company adhere to the “Critical Path Method” in every construction project they take on, breaking down everything from task importance, time needed to complete each one, to what needs to be done to finish each step of a job most efficiently.
“We have an excellent track record of always maintaining clear communication with clients, owners, inspectors, consultants and other sub trades,” says Brad. “We constantly aim to save clients time and money, without sacrificing the high-quality results we’re known for.”

The Athecon team bring more than concrete expertise to the table, providing expert wood framing services to Vancouver Island and beyond in multi-family and commercial projects, including several multi-level apartments, condos and mixed-use buildings.
Performing these carpentry feats require the best of the best tradespeople, something hard to come by in a deeply competitive market with a relatively small pool of skilled workers. This difficulty is amplified when trying to broaden your business footprint.
“It’s not easy to grow and expand. Finding the best, most efficient carpentry team to keep up with increasing demand while still achieving the top notch results our customers expect is definitely a challenge, but we continue to add to our team. Currently, we have twenty exceptionally skilled employees on staff.”
Athecon Projects Inc has remained in high demand, even during these complicated times of the pandemic. Whatever the need, Brad and his team are ready to take on your next project.
