Founded by Steven Glen, a Red Seal Millwright, G7 Custom Fabrications has grown from a one-man operation into a trusted name in 100 Mile House for industrial repair, custom fabrication and shipping container sales and modifications.
Glen’s career began as a millwright at West Fraser Lumber. On his days off, he started accepting contract work on weekends, taking jobs out of town to build his expertise and client base. Eventually, he realized his true goal – working closer to home and running his own business. Taking a leap of faith, he established G7 Custom Fabrications in 2017 and hasn’t looked back.
Initially specializing in industrial repairs, servicing cylinders, gearboxes and general millwright work, Glen adapted to meet a growing demand for custom welding and fabrication helping businesses and individuals bring their projects to life with expert craftsmanship and care.
Growth and expansion
What started as a solo endeavour has since grown into a family business. Glen’s two daughters now assist with office work and shop tasks, making G7 Custom Fabrications a true family-run operation. When larger jobs arise, Glen calls in trusted contractors ensuring all projects meet the highest standards.
“I’m here for the long term, not just to make some quick money and move elsewhere. My goal is to work with repeat customers, and leave clients feeling glad they came to me for their fabrication and repair needs.”
As the business expands, so do its capabilities. Recognizing the need for diversification, Glen has invested in light machining equipment, including a lathe and a milling machine to shape and remove pieces from the metal. This addition allows G7 Custom Fabrications to offer even more specialized services, further cementing its reputation as a go-to shop for quality work.
One of the most exciting additions to the business has been shipping container sales and modifications. Initially partnering with another seller, Glen eventually took full control of the process, keeping a stock of both new and used 20- and 40-foot containers. Whether customers need additional doors, windows or custom adjustments, G7 Fabrications can service all requests.
G7 Fabrications represents a commitment to quality. From industrial repairs to custom welding and shipping container modifications, Glen looks forward to serving 100 Mile residents for years to come.
