Welcome to another issue of Piling Canada! We worked hard over the
summer to bring you something new for our third quarterly edition.
For the first time, we’ve included the official Piling Canada
Buyers’ Guide for you; turn to page 41 to browse the printed guide.
What’s more, on Sept. 1 we launched the all-new Piling Canada website. Now, on
PilingCanada.ca, you can access the buyers’ guide online, featuring extended listings
to give you the information you need when you’re looking to buy products or
services for your projects.
What’s more, we’ve added a section to the new website that lets you post classified
listings at no cost. Register your account online to post a piece of equipment
that you’re looking to sell, rent or buy, and your post will be live for 30 days before it
expires, or you can choose to extend your post.
Of course, you’ll still be able to read the magazine and other articles online as
always by visiting PilingCanada.ca. With a new menu and layout, the site is now
easier to navigate than ever.
I’m also excited to feature our new friends at Kichton Contracting on this
issue’s cover. This Canadian company, which has an office in Acheson, Alta. and
Lloydminster, Sask., will celebrate its 55th anniversary in 2018. To read more about
Kichton Contracting and how they’ve grown in the past decade, turn to page 20.
We also included an article for you on a subject that I’ve been thinking about for
a while: What makes contractors buy? There are so many amazing equipment and
materials manufacturers in the deep foundation construction industry. In this feature
article, writer Lisa Kopochinski spoke to a few contractors across the country
