Who We Are

Where Performance Meets Strength

Our roots go back to 1949, when Ed and Vi Windley founded a family-owned plumbing and heating business. From these humble beginnings, we’ve grown in every direction: now under the leadership of the third generation of Windleys, our robust team numbers over 150 professionals. With our wide-ranging services, we take on diverse projects, executing them to a high standard of excellence every time. From boutique design-builds to multi-million dollar infrastructure contracts, we deliver outstanding results for the people of our community.

Company Values

What We Stand For

Unwavering Quality

Together, we work hard to ensure every project is a success and every client is satisfied. Our forward-thinking approach and skilled craftsmanship are key to saving time and money, making a real difference for everyone involved.

Consistent Safety

Safety is our top priority. We involve every employee in our stringent safety program, ensuring accountability and adherence to the highest standards. By investing in rigorous, ongoing safety training, we create a secure work environment.

Environmental Stewardship

Whether we’re meticulously planning work around sensitive habitats, such as creeks or woodlands, or employing sustainable construction practices, our goal is to mitigate environmental harm, conserve natural resources, minimize waste, and reduce energy consumption.

Workplace Inclusivity

Dedicated to building a more inclusive and diverse workforce, we actively hire and train people underrepresented in the industry, such as women and Indigenous people. By fostering an environment where everyone is welcome and valued, we aim to bring a wide range of perspectives and talents to our team, enriching our projects and our company culture.

Giving Back

Our Community Involvement 

We’re dedicated to the growth and development of the central Vancouver Island area, and we pride ourselves on supporting local charities and events throughout Nanaimo and the surrounding area.
