The founders of our company had a vision to create something truly unique in the construction industry. From the very beginning, they decided to take a different approach, setting themselves apart from the conventional norms. Rather than adopting a typical construction company name, they chose to name the business after Chandos Lake, a serene and picturesque body of water nestled in Ontario’s Kawartha Highlands. This decision was deeply personal for the founders, as the lake had significant ties to both of their upbringings.
Chandos Lake represented more than just a name—it symbolized the values and principles that would guide the company’s future. It was a place where memories were made, where both founders had personal connections, and where the tranquil beauty of the environment mirrored the kind of integrity and quality they wished to build into their business. By naming the company after this special place, they not only honored their roots but also set the foundation for a company that would focus on creating meaningful and lasting connections in the industry.
The choice to step away from traditional naming conventions was a reflection of the founders’ commitment to innovation, personal touch, and a deep sense of place. This unique decision laid the groundwork for a company culture that values creativity, individuality, and a strong connection to the past while always looking toward the future. Today, the name Chandos serves as a constant reminder of the company’s origins and the legacy of those early decisions, inspiring a deep sense of pride and purpose in every project undertaken.
