“It is a great honor to be completing projects like this in Tulsa since our branch was established in 1945,” said Western Tulsa Branch Manager Doug Martin. “We have been waterproofing and restoring buildings here for over 75 years. Receiving awards like this always prove the integrity, quality and pride our field personnel have daily. Give them quality. That’s the best kind of advertising. But, of course, that quality also brings in awards, which we very much appreciate.”
