Commitment

Community

We love the communities in which we build. Their support is key to Clark Builders’ success, and in return we are committed to being an active part of the major centres and regions that keep us alive.

“Someone once said that it takes a community to raise a child. Well, the same can be said in business; community support is essential to business growth. To give back comes naturally for us.”

-Paul Verhesen, President

We take a pro-active approach to our corporate responsibility. Each year, the head office champions a worthy cause that our team can relate to and engage in through creative initiatives and service opportunities.

In addition to these initiatives, all offices support the communities we serve through frequent donations and sponsorships, both cash and in-kind.

Giving back is an integral part of who we are!

Safety

Safety is an attitude, a frame of mind, an awareness of what is happening all day, every day.

Workplace safety takes top priority at Clark Builders, and the proof is in our performance. Convinced that each employee is entitled to work under the safest possible conditions on every job, we foster a culture where working safely is an expectation, not a request. As a result, our safety record far exceeds industry standards, earning a preferential WCB rating and reduced insurance costs. Those savings, of course, we pass along to clients whenever we price a project.

There's no doubt a culture of safety earns benefits, reducing down time and compensation costs. In addition, attention to safety minimizes pain and suffering for the people working with us, and for their families. That, in the end, is what matters most.

Work Safe, Home Safe. It’s worth the effort.

Sustainable Development

Responsible and dependable, Clark Builders has been proving the merits of green building practice and offers versatile sustainable and innovative solutions. Partnering with the project design team, the Clark Builders team has the skill and expertise to create exceptional environmentally-responsible projects. Our team continues to be an invaluable member of many Integrated Design Process (IDP) sessions, and is a member of Canada Green Building Council, with representation on the local Alberta Board. This experience with continuous training initiatives such as IDP lends itself directly into Sustainable Development projects under well known environmental ratings systems such as LEED® Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design). Our in-house Sustainable Innovation Department and many LEED® accredited professionals contribute substantial value and expertise for the client, architect and construction team.
