History
Established in 1982.
Vancouver Concrete Cutting & Coring was established on the foundation of three core principles:
Professionalism * Customer Satisfaction * Value
A bedrock of the Vancouver construction and contracting industry, Vancouver Concrete Cutting & Coring has lived out these values over the course of the last 26 years, and continues to thrive today. Owned and operated by David McNamara since 2007, Vancouver Concrete Cutting & Coring has added three new principles to its mandate
Honesty * Integrity * Trust
Combined, these six values fuel unprecedented growth and success. From the thousands of holes which today anchor tracks along the Skytrain’s Canada Line, to the windows and doors cut into residential basements across Metro Vancouver, our commitment ensuring you receive the best value from the concrete professionals, as promised.
Our Work
Blacktop to bank vault, as the old saying goes… over the years, we’ve seen it all.
Meet the Business Owner
David M.
Business Owner
As hard as it may seem to believe, David’s background was not in construction but rather as a professional commercial insurance broker for over 15 years.
It was there that he learned how successful businesses are run having been given the back door access to 1,000’s of companies over the years.
David took VCC from an owner operated business to a multi truck/staff company of professional cutters in just a few years.
Now VCC is one of the largest cutting companies in the Lower Mainland and the preferred cutting contractor for customers like YVR, MetroVan, Fortis BC as well as many of the largest construction companies in the Area.
But VCC has not forgotten it’s roots and continues to service smaller construction companies that service the home and renovation markets.
