J&R Excavation & Demolition Ltd is now a second-generation family owned & operated company. Regehr Basic Works was first started in 1972 by Eckard Regehr as a small drainage installation operation that consisted of a shovel, a hard-working immigrant and a VW bug. By 1986, the company had grown and was incorporated to form J&R Excavation & Demolition Ltd, now offering a variety of excavation and dispatch services.

After growing up learning the business, Hubert Regehr has since taken over the helm from his father and is excited to now be working with his own children. With his detailed knowledge of machines and intricate understanding of drainage systems, Hubert can easily be considered an expert in the industry. While focusing on the Greater Vancouver area, the company has offered services to its customers from Kelowna to Vancouver Island.
