Listen to Conor aka the 'ice cream guy' share his experience of what it was like to work with each of the key ACS team members.🍨 "When we were looking for a construction partner, we wanted to make sure they could give us the full-service. Some of the things that were important to me included being able to get the permitting done, staying on budget, staying on time, and making sure they were bringing a lot of knowledge to the table." We also loved hearing Conor's goals for Lovely Ice Cream, including providing good jobs for people in the Bow Valley. Our team enjoys working with first time construction clients like Conor.
