In the early 60’s, Ray Speerbrecker bought a D6 CAT for skidding logs. Speers Construction was born and Ray had entered the world of construction. The Speers fleet grew, Ray found his company operating a logging and road building outfit and camp for Federated Co-op. He saw opportunity in building logging roads and in the late 70’s made a very progressive move by road building with an excavator. The excavator is now the machine of choice, but in the interior, Speers was one of the first companies to use it.
As the 80’s came around, the forest industry was slowing down, but other opportunities were just on the horizon. The decade of the CPR double tracking and highway construction was on its way. The transition from forestry to earth moving was challenging, but welcomed. Speers embraced the change and took on double tracking contracts as well as part of the power line to the Mount McDonald Tunnel for CPR.
