THE INDUSTRY

DOING EVERY JOB RIGHT

Whether we’re installing state-of-the-art mechanical systems, conducting timely repairs, or ensuring compliance with the latest regulations, we offer a comprehensive range of commercial and residential mechanical services tailored to meet our clients’ unique needs. 

VANGUARD’S BEGINNING

After growing up on job sites with his father and grandfather, our founder, Jacob Kuehne, joined the industry in 1996 as a full-time plumber. He quickly saw the potential in expanding his scope of work and founded Vanguard in 2005 along with his wife. In 2012, his brother, Mathew Freeborn, joined the company. After two decades of operation, Vanguard has completed hundreds of successful projects and become a household name in BC.

THE VANGUARD FOCUS

Our business focuses on wood frame and concrete builds, and we specialize in BC housing, senior homes, group homes, and drug rehabilitation centres. Whether we’re working on new construction or multi-family residential projects, we’re proud to provide mechanical systems that elevate each building. 

OFFERING FULL PROJECT SUPPORT

We know exactly how complicated projects can get, and that’s why we want to make them as easy as possible for you. That’s where our extensive list of contacts and partner sub-trades comes in. We can take on a major part of the project’s scope as your one-stop-shop for all mechanical contracting needs. 

MAKING A DIFFERENCE IN OUR COMMUNITIES 

The work we do positively benefits the communities around us, and that makes us proud to come into work every day. We believe in giving back to our neighbourhoods, which is why we’re so proud to play a key role in providing safe and quality mechanical systems for homeowners and businesses alike. 

STAYING AHEAD OF THE CURVE

The mechanical plumbing industry is incredibly competitive, which is why standing out is essential. Our method? We’re always evolving along with the new technologies that come out every day and applying new processes to our projects where possible and beneficial.

ONGOING WORK WITH PARTNER CLIENTS

Strong partnerships make great communities. We build long-term relationships in our industry, partnering with the same trusted clients on project after project. We value a proactive team approach and believe that a truly satisfied customer isn’t possible without collaboration. How do we do this? We guarantee quality workmanship, competitive pricing, and timely project completion with reliable and predictable results.
