WHY ACRES?

Since 2009, Acres has provided work for Thompson Rivers University in various aspects. From the civil works on the Brown Family House of Learning, to the modernization of the Old Main Building, our success has come from true collaboration with the university, every step of the way in a project. 

For the East Village project, Acres engaged in a low carbon emission upgrade, which included enhanced kiosks and transformers. Our team also upgraded the furnaces and hot water tanks to higher energy efficient units.

Our success resulted from understanding the client’s needs and concerns. We listened, asked the right questions, and delivered effectively through flexibility and creativity. This renovation/tenant improvements project occurred during an active semester while classes were in session.

We were able to bring 600+ years on IP and experience to this project. Delivering on time and on budget was important, but not disturbing any in session classes was critical. We delivered this project to the university without one single interruption or delay. 

“Acres Enterprises Ltd. has been vital in providing assistance to ensure that our IPTT and WITT programming aligns with the skills sets needed by construction employers. Acres has also provided mentorship, coaching, and site tours for our students.”
