“Here for you: The Canyon assurance…”

hirty-five years ago, Harry and Alex Chupik established a company that has become synonymous with the kind of leadership, vision and entrepreneurial spirit found throughout Calgary’s history. The Chupiks are driven to succeed, but they are also ethical and it’s their approach to business that has set them apart. The brothers started Canyon Plumbing & Heating Ltd. for two simple reasons: they needed to secure their future, but more importantly, they were driven to ‘build
a better business.’ They wanted to provide better service, better products and better pricing than what the market had to offer during the late 1970s. And they succeeded – not only as business owners, but also as industry leaders. Their progressive thinking has helped shape the industry as they have elevated the trade. They have educated their customers and business partners, won numerous awards and most recently, they have successfully transitioned the business to the second generation.
