The tough jobs are our specialty
Some projects need a different take. When a job is too tight, too messy or too complex for a by-the-book approach, we find a way to get it done, and we never cut corners on safety to do it.

Creative problem-solving for the work others pass on: hard access, tight schedules and plans that don't work on paper.
Ground-up sites, operating plants, occupied buildings and underground work. We're comfortable where the work gets hard.
The riskier the job, the more planning it gets: a site-specific safety plan, a JSA for every task and stop-work authority for every worker.
Safety first
Safety is the first item on every VCS job and it is never traded for speed. Every worker on our crews has the authority to stop work that looks unsafe.

Your facility keeps running while we work. Here is what we commit to on every job.
One VCS project manager is your contact from proposal to closeout, so you always know who to call and who is accountable.
Straight answers on scope, price and schedule, and early word on anything that affects your operations. No surprises.
We protect your floors and finishes, keep work areas clean and secured, and plan around the people still working in your building.
We plan around your outages, shifts and access rules, and we build a schedule we can commit to.
Going above and beyond
On a project at the Kentucky State Penitentiary, there was no way to drive a mini excavator into the work area. Our team rigged it and craned it over the fence instead.
That's how we approach your project: think past the obstacle, do it safely, and keep your schedule moving.
