Last fall we were asked to attend the 2008 City of Vaughan's Urban Design Awards presentation.
It was an exciting event that showcased urban design architecture, landscape architecture and environmental stewardship.
We were very pleased to be the landscape construction company that was part of the teams for two of the projects that won an Environmental Green Award of Excellence (Vellore Park SWM Facility) and and Environmental Green Award of Merit (Dreamwood Subdivision Neighbourhood).
These awards confirm the continuing commitment that Hermanns Contracting Limited has to contributing to environmental sustainability.

In 2008 Hermanns completed a number of Green Roof projects.  The installation of Green Roofs is becoming very popular in many cities with new construction as well as older buildings considering this option.  Green Roofs were completed in Guelph, Ottawa and in Toronto (Science Center and DUCA Financial) in 2008. Hermanns anticipates completing a number of Green Roof projects in the coming year.
