Pier Solutions was the successful bidder on the repair of Pisew Falls suspension foot bridge in the fall of 2022. What a breath of fresh air this company was.

This was a tricky job with only a foot path leading to the bridge. The contractors were professional, thorough, and completed the job early. I have been working for the government for 28 years and this is one of the best contractors I have dealt with.

No excuses, just a job well done! Much appreciated.

Evan and his team provided the best product while ensuring  Pier’s staff, design professionals, and subcontractors completed all work efficiently while respectfully addressing the concerns of not only Council, but as they worked with landowners. The work was always carried out with good communication, providing regular updates on the progress of the repairs.

​The Rural Municipality of Oakview would highly recommend Pier Solutions for assistance with disaster site repairs or road and bridge maintenance and repairs for municipalities.

Pier Solutions provided the professional and technical resources needed for the Municipality to identify and prioritize maintenance and repairs for municipal bridges. This work enabled the Municipality to develop a multi-year maintenance plan to take a proactive approach in extending the life of the bridges. 

The ultimate goal is to help local leaders efficiently direct maintenance and repair dollars where they are needed most.

The RM of Morris has a wooden bridge structure that was constructed in the 1980’s and about 5 or so years ago we had an engineering consultant conduct an inspection of the bridge.  The consultant basically advised us that we should remove the bridge and construct a new bridge.  Estimated costs were between $1.2 to $2 million.
 
Long story short Evan and his company repaired various items on the bridge for around $150,000.  We have since had his company repair another of our bridges at a similar cost and we also have them conduct annual inspections of both of these bridges to ensure that appropriate steps are taken to extend the life of the bridge as long as we can.
 
Our experience with Evan and his crew has been very positive and we would recommend them.

Pier Solutions was quick, helpful, informative, and willing to work with the Municipality. Our budget wasn't a lot and the work we needed done was confusing to anyone without an engineering background or bridge knowledge.

Evan took the time to explain what the issues were, what the options were for fixing them, and finding a solution to help the Municipality lower the costs. It was a pleasure!

​The RM of Dauphin has been working with Pier Solutions for over 4 years now and have always been completely satisfied with their performance. They do excellent work and offer very competitive rates for practical, budget conscious repairs and/or replacements. From completing the initial inspections and providing detailed reports with cost effective solutions, to providing start to finish project management on straight forward repairs or complex DFA claims, we have used Evan Manning with Pier Solutions to repair two bridges and one cement crossing and he has provided multiple bridge and cement structure inspections.

​Evan is a seasoned professional, very reasonably priced and is always in contact with us and does exactly what is asked of him. It is with great enthusiasm that I recommend the services of Pier Solutions.

​Trails Manitoba recently contracted Pier Solutions to refurbish and install two wooden bridges (originally from King’s Park, Winnipeg) in the Whiteshell Provincial Park. Both installations required a significant amount of creativity and precision – both of which were executed to perfection. We are extremely satisfied with our choice of contractor and very pleased with the final product. Evan Manning and team were professional, patient, attentive to customer requests, and very easy to work with. We are more than happy to recommend Pier Solutions.

For a non-profit organization, building a pedestrian bridge requiring provincial permits and engineered designs for the bridge and the foundation is very overwhelming. Not only as it relates to the need to leave the RM of De Salaberry with a problem-free infrastructure but also as it relates to the fear of having cost overruns and needing to be accountable to our funders.

​The way Pier Solutions offered to help with a maximum cost budget and the willingness to find and work with local contractors including the RM of De Salaberry was a big weight off of our shoulders. Their communication was very timely and they delivered what they promised. The ribbon cutting event was basically a big sigh of relief! Thank you Pier Solutions! We would surely work with you again and recommend you without hesitation!
