Peter Christensen President |
The corporate restructuring and transfer of assets of Harry Toomey and Sons (1945), formed Supreme House Movers located in Maple Ridge, British Columbia, Canada in 1975. Before his retirement in 1981, Harry Toomey lived as one of Vancouver's structural moving industry pioneers. He helped forge the local standards of the moving industry and created a company that is preparing for the future without forgetting the sound values established in its past.
In the last twenty years, we at Supreme House Movers Ltd. in BC have expanded from the house moving and raising industry to include many unique relocation projects. In addition to some very delicate heritage buildings, we have moved yachts, submarines, tanks, vessels, ferry modules, industrial equipment, and large commercial buildings. Many of these projects involved the design and fabrication of specialized moving equipment.
A substantial part of our business is the recycling of houses. We keep a detailed list of homes for sale, which would otherwise be slated for demolition.We will then try to match buyers / sellers and relocate the houses onto the new owner's property. This creates an affordable alternative to new construction and reduces the costs of a project as well as the amount of new materials needed.
We are proud of our employees. We rely on the people who are Supreme House Movers Ltd. to constantly contribute to the streamlining and improvement of the company with their innovative suggestions. Some of them have been with us for as long as 20 years!
Our company holds licenses to work throughout southwestern BC and carries both cargo and liability insurance. We are fully bondable and can arrange to provide increased insurance when required.
In recent years Supreme House Movers Ltd. has combined forces with Sea Business Ltd. to take on industrial projects that combine the technological expertise of one, with the engineering expertise of the other, to provide smooth, efficient and on budget service both on land and on water. This partnership has enabled us to be involved in mega moving projects for government and industry.
In 1992, our company became a founding member of the British Columbia Structural Movers Association (BCSMA). By encouraging all movers in the province to meet and discuss common concerns, we have been able to improve the efficiency, cost, and availability of our services to all British Columbians. On a larger scale, our membership in the International Association of Structural Movers (IASM) provides us with access to the latest developments in the industry around the world.
In these competitive times Supreme House Movers Ltd. strives not only to provide quality professional service, but to utilize our skills and technology to offer the most efficient methods on the market to British Columbia, Canada and North America.
