For the City of Campbell River, we fabricated and welded custom light covers to protect outdoor lighting fixtures from damage and the elements.

Built for durability, these covers help extend light life while maintaining a clean appearance and reliable performance.

From concept to completion. 👌

This project started with a vision to modernize an older Daigle boat and transform it into a more functional and capable vessel. Our team handled everything from the initial design and layout right through to fabrication and installation.

The scope included designing and building a completely new cabin, extending the hull, fabricating a custom aluminum pod, and removing the original inboard motor setup. Every component was carefully planned to improve performance, functionality, and overall usability on the water.

There's nothing better than taking an older vessel and giving it a new lease on life through custom fabrication. Stay tuned as this project continues to come together.

Big things underway at McCrea’s Welding!

This aluminum pier section is the beginning of one of our newest coastal projects taking shape in the shop. Engineered, fabricated, and built in-house by our crew.

It’s a little tight getting this one out the shop door… but we’ll make it happen 😎

Stay tuned as this project comes together and heads out for install.

Remote jobs hit different when you’ve got more bears than people on site 🐻

Between the black bears cruising the shoreline and the grizzlies reminding you who actually owns the place, you stay sharp out here. Every lunch break turns into a full perimeter check, and “site safety” means a lot more than just hard hats.

No traffic. Unreal views. And coworkers that’ll definitely eat your lunch if you leave it unattended.

Wouldn’t trade it for anything.

A few sets of custom stairs heading out the door and on their way to another happy customer.

Built in-house with precision fit-up, clean welds, and our full QC process from start to finish. These are ready for install and built to last in tough coastal conditions.

We take a lot of pride in making sure everything that leaves our shop is right the first time.

Stay tuned for install shots 👊

There’s something different about a commute like this.

No traffic. No noise. Just the hum of the motor and the sound of water sliding past the hull. Running up through Bute Inlet and easing through Arran Rapids, it’s hard not to stop and take it all in.

Glassy water, mountains rising straight out of the ocean, and that quiet you only get out here on the coast. It’s a reminder of how lucky we are to work where most people only ever get to visit.

This is the daily commute. And I wouldn’t trade it for anything.
