this massive project.

Business has grown rapidly in Gillette and we have reached the limit (plus some) for available work bays and parts storage. Our current facilities have been in use since 1978 and have served the local mining, mineral and construction industries through boom and bust for nearly 30 years. As Wyoming continues to enjoy the current energy boom we must expand to meet customer demand.
The new structure will be especially suited to handle the oversized equipment our customers use including the largest haul trucks and dozers. The expansion will also allow us to hire an additional twenty new employees including service technicians. Similar to the CRC in Casper, the new Gillette facility will offer extensive rebuild capabilities for our customers. Many customers are seeing a 50% savings in rebuilding existing equipment over purchasing new. Due to our service excellence, unsurpassed contamination control and overall expertise we can offer our customers an as-good-or-better-than-new product rebuild in most cases.
The planned expansion will be added to the south of the current building. The new building will contain an additional 84,000 ft2 of warehouse space, 70,000 ft2 service area, 16, 000 ft2 additional office and support space and a 7,300 ft2 wash bay.
Caspar Building Systems is the contractor for the expansion and completion is expected in the first quarter of 2010. The official groundbreaking ceremony was held on June 25th and we would like to thank Gillette Mayor Duane Evenson and the Gillette Chamber of Commerce Energizers for attending event.
