2900 Smith St - Commercial Fire Restoration

In 2024, Rely Construction completed a full commercial fire restoration at 2900 Smith Street, a multi-unit light industrial complex in Richmond, BC. The project centered around Unit #4, which sustained significant fire damage, while Units #2 and #3 also required restoration due to secondary impact from firefighting efforts.

Heritage Train Relocation – Project Management

In the fall of 2022, Rely Construction was entrusted with managing the delicate relocation of a historic heritage train – originally built in Poland – purchased by a private collector at a City of Vancouver auction. The train had been housed inside a metal storage shed adjacent to the False Creek Public Tennis Club, a former maintenance facility and part of Vancouver’s Historic Railway infrastructure. Our scope included demolishing portions of the shed, carefully extracting the train, and facilitating its movement to the buyer’s private location.
