Moore & Sons has completed another major concrete project in Maple Ridge: our 67th water reservoir tank base! Measuring 54 metres in diameter, this industrial-grade concrete base required more than 60 cubic metres of concrete and a carefully coordinated pour to meet the project's engineering requirements.
Located at 270A Street, the reservoir is part of the City's efforts to improve water supply capacity in support of future growth and development in northeast Maple Ridge. Once complete, the reservoir will hold one million gallons of drinking water, helping meet the needs of the growing community. The upgrades include structural, mechanical and operational improvements designed to help maintain a reliable water distribution system.

"We Didn't Have to Micro-Manage Them": Moore & Sons Project Partner Testimonial
Recently, we had the opportunity to work with the Mainland Machinery crew on an industrial project for Otter Co-Op in Aldergrove, involving the construction of a concrete foundation for six new grain storage silos.
Built to Carry 600 Tonnes: Moore & Sons Builds New Grain Silos Foundation for Otter Co-op
Moore & Sons has just completed a massive industrial concrete foundation for six new grain storage silos at Otter Co-Op in Aldergrove.
Measuring 30 feet by 40 feet and four feet thick, the new concrete base will support six modern grain silos, replacing six aging silos that have stood at the Aldergrove site for more than 60 years.
Each of the new silos will hold approximately 100 metric tonnes, meaning the new foundation has been engineered to support a combined load of at least 600 metric tonnes.
How Do You Install Insulated Cladding on Huge Water Reservoir Tanks?
Ever wondered how insulated cladding is installed on enormous water reservoir tanks—and why it is so important in a place like Cranbrook, BC?
This video gives you a behind-the-scenes look at how we install insulated cladding on large water reservoir tanks to help protect them from the elements and keep the water inside protected through some of BC’s most challenging weather conditions.
Moore & Sons recently completed the installation of 6-inch-thick insulated cladding on two large water reservoirs in Cranbrook. And in Cranbrook, insulation isn't just a nice-to-have. The area can experience very cold winter temperatures, with prolonged periods of freezing weather, while summer can bring surprisingly hot temperatures. These dramatic seasonal swings make protecting above-ground water storage infrastructure from the elements especially important.
Why Porcelain Tile Is a Smart Choice for Your Patio Renovation
Moore & Sons recently completed a stunning porcelain tile patio renovation project in Ladner, transforming an unsafe and uneven outdoor space into a beautiful, durable, and long-lasting patio.
Porcelain tile has become an increasingly popular choice for patios and decks — and for good reason. Compared to traditional concrete or paving stones, porcelain tile is non-porous, highly durable, and exceptionally low-maintenance. It resists stains, frost damage, and fading without requiring regular sealing, making it an excellent long-term investment for homeowners who want both performance and style.
"We couldn't be happier with the final result and would highly recommend Moore & Sons to anyone considering a similar project," says homeowner Elroy Jespersen. "We also made the project quite challenging by requesting a herringbone pattern, which required a tremendous amount of measuring, cutting, and fitting to get everything just right. The results exceeded our expectations."
