Benefit from our Specialization

Bonding

 

Bonding expertise is one of our strongest differentiators, and we are proud of our reputation as surety leaders. We specialize in providing market leading bonding solutions for construction contractors of every shape and size across Canada. Our objective is to contribute to the long term success of the companies we serve by consistently delivering superior bonding service, terms and advice.

Bonding Services

Construction Insurance

Construction insurance is a specialized field, and a perfect complement to our bonding services. Being immersed in construction gives us an elevated understanding of the unique insurance needs of contractors, and enables us to deliver complete and cost-effective solutions. As a top construction insurance broker in Canada, we have access to every insurance market and privileged relationships with the leading construction insurers.

Insurance Services

Advisory

 

Our long history of working closely with leading contractors, developers and industry stakeholders has given us exposure to the breadth of business issues faced in construction, and solutions to those issues.  Our accumulated experience and contacts are a resource for our clients, and we offer business advisory and strategic referral services, included at no cost for our bonding and insurance customers.

COVID-19 Response

In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, we would like to provide you with some peace of mind as it relates to business continuity and readiness at Petrela, Winter & Associates.
PWA remains open for business at our regular business hours, and we have taken the necessary measures to ensure our clients continue to receive uninterrupted bonding and insurance service during these uncertain times.

At the same time, we have implemented precautionary measures to help ensure the safety of our staff and community. All PWA staff have been equipped with the capability to work ‘remotely’, and we have greatly reduced our on-site office personnel and implemented a ‘remote office’ structure for employees.
For email correspondence and bond and insurance requests (including our online bond portal, ‘Bondworks’), there is no change in the process and you may reach us as before with all email requests.

To reach us by phone, you may contact our main office line (416.488.2522) for reception assistance, or alternatively, you may contact individual staff directly – below is a directory for all PWA staff that includes direct phone and email contact information.

Given the disruption experienced by most businesses, including the bonding and insurance markets we deal with on your behalf, we would ask for as much lead time as possible on all service requests. We appreciate your patience and understanding as we strive to provide clients with a seamless service experience through the challenging circumstances.

I wanted to pause a moment to send Petrela Winter a big thank you for the work you have done over the years. I carry a comfort level working with the Petrela Winter team over the past 15 years or so. Some years have required action and strategic thinking from Petrela Winter, and your team stepped up to the plate and rose to the challenge. PWA has become a deeper part of the brain trust for ZEC, and I am very proud to have them as part of my team, and thank you sincerely for the work that you have done.

—Johannes Ziebarth, President & CEO, Ziebarth Electrical Contractors Ltd.

Over the past 30 years, Pennecon has grown from regional roadbuilder to a leading national heavy civil and industrial contractor, with a vast array of private and public customers from coast to coast. Our projects are continually larger, technically challenging, and contractually complex, and so it is critical for our staff and business partners to be the most knowledgeable and progressive in the industry. Petrela, Winter & Associates’ team of highly skilled bonding professionals have assisted us in many ways, enabling our disciplined growth for over 20 years. Always up to the challenge, their credibility with the Surety community and their continuous support and guidance has been paramount to the success of our business.

Over the 12 years that we’ve been with Petrela Winter as our bonding agent, Petrela Winter has always been a solid advocate for our firm. Due to PWA’s support, we’ve been able to expand our contracting business and to undertake larger and more complex projects. Petrela Winter has been proactive in obtaining the best rate for bonds available while maintaining strong relationships with bond providers.

We’ve found everyone we’ve worked with to be professional, knowledgeable, and personable. Kenalex is pleased to have this opportunity to express our complete satisfaction with the services of Petrela Winter and to highly recommend this firm.

We have been represented by Petrela Winter for over 30 years, and we have and continue to receive the best terms in the industry for both bonding and insurance. Their dedication to the industry, knowledge base, and their understanding of the national market as a whole, sector by sector, and region by region has provided our firm with a significant competitive edge.

—Keith Dwyer, President, Easco Electric Limited

Frecon Construction has been a client of Petrela Winter for over 20 years, during which time I have come to view Petrela Winter not only as my surety and insurance broker, but as an advocate for my business. PWA has a breadth of business experience and their professionals are more than happy to provide guidance or even open doors with his other clients or even competitors to do what is best for my company. Petrela Winter is known as an industry leader in the surety industry but they have been much more to my business, they’ve been a partner.

—Dean Drevniok, Past Chair, OGCA & President, Frecon Construction Limited
