LAVALLÉE’ STORY

August 2001 is the start of a new adventure for a young, visionary and determined entrepreneur. With his head full of dreams and ambition, Steve Lavallée, passionate about construction and renovation, created the company Bois Franc Lavallée. Evaluating the West Island clientele, he then opened a storefront on Hymus boulevard, in Kirkland.

The predominantly English-speaking clientele in the area have several ancestral home renovation projects and demand is on the rise! The first years of Bois Franc Lavallée proved to be prosperous despite fluctuations in the market. Gradually, the company forges its grounds and gets renowned as a reference for floorings of all types.

Starting a business comes with its challenges and unforeseen events and Steve uses his creativity to recover from the toughest blows. In addition to his professional network, his family comes to give him a hand. His godmother and his brother support him in the company’s daily activities. Funny fact? One of the first delivery vehicles was an old refurbished ambulance. Coming to the rescue of the renovation projects!
