Frank H. Stowell & Sons – General Contractor

Frank H. Stowell & Sons, a Building First Nations company, is a full-service general contractor offering both traditional general contracting services and the design/build option. Our clients are just as likely to be institutions, businesses, or dwelling owners with projects ranging in size from large and complex to quite modest. More often than not they become repeat clients while our reputation in the architectural community is another source of project opportunities.

Many of our institutional clients are healthcare providers and they demand expertise that can only be acquired through years of experience building spaces for diagnostic imaging, vascular and radiotherapy systems. We’ve accomplished that.

Our “high-end” residential clients are looking for the knowledge and attention to detail necessary to manage complex projects with high precision. We’ve delivered that.

Regardless of the project type or size, Frank H. Stowell & Sons brings the same level of commitment and the same systematic approach. We’ve done that.

Commercial Construction and Remodeling infrastructure

Infrastructure

One common thread for infrastructure projects is that they are often in response to a crisis (e.g., a bridge collapses). The crisis for the Hines V.A. Hospital in Hines, Illinois, was not as spectacular, but no less serious.

Why Build with Us

Commercial Remodeling

The Right Experience

Building on our strengths

When, in 1922, Frank H. Stowell, Sr. was awarded a remodeling contract for the new Harris Bank, the company's standards were already set – high quality finishes, made to last. This led to more bank remodeling, then high-end retail store renovations, and, later, luxury condo build-outs. The same strengths drew the company to major hospital renovations which evolved into the burgeoning medical equipment field. Fifty years of building spaces for MRIs and umpteen modalities followed. More recently, that cumulative experience became part of every university lab we have fitted out. Each project is, in fact, built on our past strengths.
