We hired MSC to build our new operations and processing building for our commercial container forestry seedling nursery. I filled out the online quote request from the website and received a call back from Steve right away. He asked many, many questions about the project and answered all of my questions as well. He spoke to me like I was right there in the room, and we had known each other for years. I had never taken on a project like this before and Steve immediately made me feel comfortable. I chose MSC because their customer service was head and shoulders above all the competition and to put the icing on the cake, they offered the best price! From this point on the customer service from MSC did not falter at all. Through all the ups and downs of the building process during the pandemic, Steve, Tyler, and the rest of the team at MSC continued to provide fantastic service. The erector company that MSC used was amazing as well. They were very safe, efficient, and always ready to answer any of my questions during the build. I can’t say enough good things about my experience working with MSC. I would gladly use them again if there are any builds in the future and I tell everyone I know how great of an experience I had.
MSC supplied & installed a multi-building package for us. MSC worked with us during the design process, and really helped us come up with a building design & layout that maximized the leasable square footage on our property. Our experience working with MSC was very good!! They really care about the work that they do, and the customer service was excellent. Both the steel mini-storage buildings and the pre-engineered steel building were quality buildings, and were installed on time and on budget. We would have no hesitation in recommending MSC to anyone that is looking for a steel building. In fact, we are in the process of starting phase 2 and looking forward to working with the MSC team again.

In January 2014, Steve Ivanitz (Project Manager) completed the Powell River Project in a 3 month span. This complex project required detailed coordination of trades and schedule flexibility to maintain the ongoing operations of the facility. The team members of MSC exhibited professionalism in their field construction and management endeavors, and completed all of the technical challenges to the stringent VCH standards. In conclusion, these team members of MSC helped to deliver on what was contracted and completed the process on time and on budget. I would not hesitate in recommending MSC for future construction services.

We hired MSC after consulting with past customers and hearing how efficient and easy to work with they are…we were also impressed with their adherence to timelines and prices. So, we contacted MSC to help with the construction of two buildings. Our first project was a warehouse/sales building, and the second project was to erect our sausage kitchen and packaging facility expansion. To no surprise, both projects were managed well and came together even better than expected (despite the weather in Northern BC). The management and staff were very helpful throughout both projects – both in the planning and construction phases. A big thing that stood out to us was their adaptability to our design/project requirements and requests. Without a doubt, we would most definitely use and recommend MSC.

When the time to build my dream shop finally arrived, we knew that a steel building would be the way to go, but we didn't know much about them since most of the builders in our area only do wood structures. Fortunately, one of the first companies that we spoke to was MSC, Steve and Corey came out, discussed our project plans with us, and gave us helpful suggestions. They had already put up buildings that I knew about in our area, so they seemed like a good bet. I have dealt with many contractors, and I have to say that from start to finish, these guys maintained a professional integrity that I haven't seen before.
The structure was built exactly when they said it would be. It went up very quickly, and the builders were always working. The crew lead was really good at keeping the guys cheerful while working hard. They seemed to really like their jobs. The quality of the work was flawless. I was really impressed.
Since our building went up, they have put up other structures in our area, and I have heard other positive things about them.
This doesn't surprise me; I would recommend them to anyone who is looking to build a steel shop, shelter, or warehouse.
Thanks, Steve!
I purchased a building from MSC in 2013. We choose MSC after checking references, touring MSC buildings and personally interviewing Steve Ivanitz. MSC’s crews arrived on schedule and did an outstanding job. Their foreman was knowledgeable and always ready to answer questions. The job was finished on time, on budget and the entire job site was left clean and ready for the next stage of our project. Safety was always the highest priority on site. Throughout the entire project, Steve was outstanding to work with. His extensive knowledge of pre-engineered buildings combined with his strong interpersonal relationship skills guided us through our project from start to finish with very few issues. Throughout the project, Steve was always a phone call or email away and always had our projects best interest in mind especially when it came to the project budget. It is hard to find a contractor you can trust with your wallet. A huge thank you to Steve and his team for a job extremely well done!
