Why Valard?
Coast to Coast
We've built over 11,000 kilometers of transmission line - that's the distance from Vancouver to Halifax, and back. The lines we build connect some of the most remote communities in Canada.
Unmatched Resources
We are able to work in diverse conditions because we are flexible and because we have a lot of resources at our disposal. Our fleet includes aircraft for accessing remote locations and to increase efficiency when erecting and stringing towers.
Our clients keep hiring us because safety and quality are always our top priorities.
Safe Repairs with No Outages
Valard uses our proprietary LineMaster™ robotic arm for energized work, which reduces safety incidences and allows more efficient repair. It also eliminates the need for service outages.
