JOHN OBORNE

Owner/President

As the proud owner of OBORNE CONTRACTING INC. for over 20 years my dedication to quality workmanship and customer service is directly attributed to the unprecedented growth the company has experienced.

I measure success by placing equal value on developing relationships with clients, trades and employees while delivering the high quality results that we have become recognized for.

While my work history in the field has always resulted successfully.  It has come with its challenges educating me to stay focused, confident and adapting to the management of the business and the construction approach.

Not taking success for granted, I am committed to the development of the company and maintaining an ongoing business relationship with clients. This repeat and referred business accounts for a major portion of OBORNE CONTRACTING INC.’S accomplishments.

 

Quotes from John:

"If you make your job about the money, you’ll never make money, if you make your job about how well you do the work, the money will come”

"Quality, cleanliness and customer service equal happiness"
