Fabric Structures
Cavalry Contracting Inc has been a Britespan Buildings dealer since 2011 and has completed over 100+ projects!. We wanted to ensure that our agricultural, equestrian, commercial and industrial customers were given all options when looking to build, whether it was their dream building or simply to cover manure from the elements. We have teamed up with Britespan Building Systems as they are a local manufacturer located in Wingham, Ontario that have over 10 years experience in the fabric structure business. When we looked into our options every customer either said ‘Coverall Buildings’ or ‘Britespan Buildings’. With the branding that Britespan had already done in Ontario, the choice was clear.
While there are many options out there in the industry today, Cavalry and Britespan Building Systems have continued to gain market share by working with the proper fundamentals while focusing on the customers’ needs. Quality far outlasts any slight upfront savings others may offer.
Cavalry Contracting and BBS both believe that buildings sell buildings. While others are also interested in selling more buildings, it speaks volumes when you can stand behind and be proud to show the details of completed projects.
Britespan has one of the widest selections of engineered fabric buildings which really helps provide our customers with all the options they require to suit their needs and application
