Letter of Reference for Rae Sturt Contracting

To whom it may concern,

Mr. Rae Sturt and his team of qualified professionals have been providing Canadian Forest Products Ltd. with the finest in construction, renovations, cabinetry, and project management for over 15 years.

Rae's hand selection of materials, attention to detail, close supervision of his team, and quality selection of tools and methods results in the highest standard of completion! Rae's work is second to none!

Of the more than one dozen contractors I had providing a variety of services to Canfor, Rae and his team provided the largest volume of work with the least amount of my time; they are professional from start to finish!

Sincerely,
Monty Morrow
Retired Facilities Supervisor
Canadian Forest Products Ltd.

 

Regarding: Rae Sturt and his construction team.

To whom it may concern,

In the 1970s and early 1980s I was General Manager of Foundation Company of Canada (B.C. division) one of the largest Construction/Engineering firms in Canada, with over 600 employees. In addition, over the last 28+ years I have been President of International Marine Floatation Systems (IMFS) in Vancouver, BC, Canada, specializing in construction of floating buildings.

I have seen and done my fair share of construction over the years and over time, I have received many requests for letters of reference from employees. This is the first time I have volunteered to do this honour. Over many months I witnessed firsthand the impressive work done by Rae Sturt and his capable crew. As I watched outside the front door of my office into our construction yard, a very nice, well crafted Floating Home began to emerge under Rae's guidance. I was very impressed with the quality of workmanship, cleanliness and general good safety and organization skills and would rank Rae Sturt and his team as one of the best in my memory.

I would recommend Rae Sturt without hesitation.

Re: Letter of Reference for Mr. Rae Sturt of Rae Sturt Contracting

To whom it may concern,

Rae Sturt Contracting has worked with Canadian Forest Products Ltd. since 1987 in a contractor role.

I first met Rae Sturt in my role as a supervisor for Canadian Forest Products Ltd., moving a 100 man camp from one remote location to a new remote location. This job was a short notice, emergency job, which I had employed several contractors to help accomplish the task on time. It did not take very long for me to realize Rae Sturt Contracting was the contractor which stood out amongst the others. Qualify of workmanship, organized, honesty, and the sense of urgency about what needs to be done has made Rae Sturt the contractor of choice for me and many others at Canadian Forest Products Ltd. for the last 25 years.

Rae Sturt Contracting has the skills to take care of all of our needs in the forest industry and sawmill sector. Moving and setting up camps, building scale houses, water lines, sewer lines, windows, doors, office remodelling, cabinets, cement work, home construction--the list could go on.

I am a person who demands a high quality of workmanship with professional results once the work has been completed. Rae Sturt Contracting has never let me down in 25 years, despite working in some of the most difficult conditions. With the same commitment to qualify, professionalism, cost and on time completion, it has made Rae Sturt very easy to work with. Layout the requirements, and I and others knew we could count on Rae to get the job done with minimal supervision.

I would highly recommend Rae Sturt Contracting to any company or individual requiring carpentry work. From constructing a new home, constructing a new office, building fine cabinets or remodelling, Rae Sturt Contracting can accomplish the job with quality and honesty, while complying with all building construction codes, fire codes and WorkSafe BC requirements.

It was a great pleasure working with you on the Dorval project. I came to appreciate the extra care and attention you gave to detail and extraordinary workmanship while working for Mr. Dorval. All Engineers wish for contractors like you on their projects. It removes all concern that what can't be seen at the end of the day is done with anything less than perfection. One of the testaments to your good work is that during the launch and trip to Queensborough Island, I am told, not one crack appeared in the drywall. Drywall will tell you right away if anything is amiss in the structure.

If you ever need a reference or testament to your skill and workmanship please feel free to offer my name on your behalf.

Kind Regards
Lynn

 

A thank you and recognition of exceptional performance as a contractor

Rae Sturt and his team have been doing contracting work for me for several years.

We have worked together, both as contractors on numerous projects with me providing electrical contract services and Rae as the Carpenter. Rae has worked for my partners and me during my years at Lakewood Electric.

Rae has also performed work for me personally on a number of projects: for example;

  • He renovated our condo in Prince George - from basement finishing to main area refinishing to an exterior deck.

  • He built a large new dock at our cabin on Summit Lake

During the time we worked together and the projects he completed for me, we developed a great friendship and I grew to respect the excellence with which he preformed and managed projects.

The most significant and latest project he completed for my wife and I was the construction of our floating home, built in Delta, BC. Due to our confidence in Rae and his crew, I convinced him to take on the job which allowed us to realize our retirement dream way ahead of schedule. Our new home had many unusual construction and finishing techniques. To say that he did this job with his usual attention to detail would be a gross understatement. Rae took it all in stride and exceeded our expectations.

In closing, if you are reading this with a view to hiring a contractor, look no further!

Rae Sturt Contracting is the best.

Retired couple,
Jim & Kathy Dorval
