QUALITY. IT’S ON OUR SHIRTS FOR A REASON

There’s a lot more to being a good contracting company than just owning an excavator. There’s accurately quoting an estimate. There’s punctuality and the completion of a job on time and on budget. There’s honesty. And there’s knowing that whatever arises, a solution will be provided. In short, there’s quality and that’s why all of us here at Kays Contracting wear shirts with that word emblazoned on them.

Kays Contracting is a full-service excavation company specializing in commercial and civil work. From site preparation to completion we guarantee careful planning, creative problem solving and quality workmanship for all your underground works. The territory we serve includes British Columbia’s West Kootenay region from Nelson, Castlegar, Trail and Salmo up the Slocan Valley and North Shore of Kootenay Lake to Trout Lake and Nakusp.

Our mission is to protect ecosystems and communities by preventing and reducing the harmful impacts of invasive species.  An invasive species is a species that is not native to a specific location, and that has a tendency to spread to a degree that causes damage to the environment, human economy or human health.
