About

OUR STORY

George S. Wark started in home building on a part time basis after hours and on weekends in 1949. Finally in 1955 he decided to pursue home building full time on his own account starting with a $700 down payment for a $10,000 two acre property. The property was subdivided into eleven lots and construction followed on this property and others until 1960, when a decision was made to formally incorporate and switch to the ICI sector.

We partner with the Mohawk College Co-Op program and incorporate several students throughout the year. The experience for all parties involved is very rewarding and it allows the Engineering and Architectural/Construction Students to get a great introduction into their future career path.

OUR EXPERIENCE

Our company has built a solid reputation for quality construction by tailoring our services to specific building and administrative needs of each client. Our long history of over 60 years of experience in General Contracting, Construction/Project Management and Design Build has provided us with a complete understanding of the complexities and the requirements of each process. In some cases not one method perfectly fits the projects. In such cases, we will customize a delivery process that is best suited to the customer’s needs and the goals of that project.
