WBS Construction has been proud to call Winkler home since it opened its doors in 1979. What started out with the pur- chase of a lumberyard quickly grew into a regional leader in construction man- agement. Our work has been wide ranging from bridges to multi-unit residential facilities to manufacturing centers to community projects. Over the years we have estab- lished a great working relationship with the City of Winkler, working with them on a number of initiatives including the Centennial Library, the Firehall, the Beth- el Heritage Park , the P.W. Enns Concert Hall and most recently the Buhler Active Living Centre. Since our beginnings we have enjoyed tremendous success and a number of long-term client relationships due in large part to our core values: family, our word is our bond, fairness and focus on a higher purpose. The opening line of our mission state- ment which can be found on our website speaks to working together with custom- ers to determine their building objec- tives. To be successful in this part of our mission, we strive to find the right bal- ance between function, appearance and cost while making the process an enjoy- able one. If you have a project that needs leader- ship and connection between vision and completion, connect with us, we’re com- mitted to your success. www.wbsconstruction.com
