History in YMM
LIAM Construction was launched in 1979 by Bill de Silva from a warehouse in downtown Fort McMurray with only a single, leased blue GM half ton truck. Suncor & Syncrude were the only oil plants, telegrams were sent from the Railway Station in Waterways and there was no fax service, email, radios or cell phones. A barrel of oil was hovering in the low $20’s and the average price of homes was around the $70,000 mark.
LIAM’s first contract was to refurbish the old Alberta Treasury Branch for just $56,000. Today, with an experienced work force and loyal sub-contractors, LIAM has built this city!
A Legacy of Restoration and Resilience
LIAM construction has been involved in the restoration of Fort McMurray, AB’s fire and flood and in Lytton, BC’s fire of 2021. It posed formidable challenges, testing the limits of our capabilities. However, our response showcased the depth of our commitment to recovery and restoration. The stories of LIAM’s involvement and our collective endeavors stand as a testament to our ability to persevere and emerge stronger from even the most daunting circumstances. With a legacy rooted in construction, restoration, and renovation, LIAM Construction continues to exemplify resilience and excellence in the face of adversity.
