About Us
VGC VISION
Valot General Contractors takes pride in building their team members up, not only through job related knowledge, but also through continued education, team building, encouraging reading and personal achievements in their own lives. It is an honor to provide resources for personal growth.
Expanding on these aspects: Job related knowledge in a residential construction company could be anything from team leading, project management, plan reading, understanding the market, and promoting further education through post-secondary school or trade school. Continued education would include hands-on opportunities that allow our employees to learn from experts in the field and expand on job skills that could encourage them to one day be business owners or be leaders in the community.
Personal achievements include attending seminars or having a guest speaker discuss mental health management, how to operate and maintain a business, or how to be smart financially. Encouraged reading (i.e. Leadership for Dummies, The Customer Rules, Marketing Strategies by Brian Kaskavalciyan & The PMP Pre Exam Book by Andy Crowe.)
Valot General Contractors wants more than ever to build a better, safer community by ways of volunteering (i.e. collecting donated foods to feed the needy and homeless, cleaning up trash in the streets, etc.) and making sure projects are meaningful and follow in compliance with the city standards.
