When the Lafourche Parish School Board needed to complete a tight turn on a paving and drainage job at Lower Larose Elementary, Foret Contracting Group was able to step up to the plate and meet the tight deadline.
“This job needed to be done in fast fashion,” says Benton Foret, CEO. “QSM was a large part of our success on this job. The drainage system on this one wasn’t terribly complicated, but the time frame was such that we couldn’t afford for anything to go wrong.”
QSM worked with Foret and delivered products as needed, and in a timely fashion.
“We like to partner with suppliers who understand tight timelines,” says Foret. “QSM, Steven Gros and Ben Giardina are great to work with. They’re always one step ahead of the curve for us.”
Foret provided Lower Larose Elementary with drainage and concrete paving. The time frame was June 1 – August 1.
He says his company worked together with QSM, and “got it done.”
Foret Contracting Group has been in business since the early 90s.
Foret provides general contracting services, commercial grounds services and maintenance, and residential landscaping design, installation and maintenance. It calls on QSM for all of its drainage, sewer, water control and erosion control materials.
Foret serves customers in South Louisiana, from the New Orleans Metro area to Lafayette. When asked what sorts of projects his firm excels in, Benton Foret was quick to answer, “building construction, heavy construction, and facilities maintenance.”
The company provides expertise to the private sector and to public works projects, with a company guarantee that a small team with a shared vision will work on all projects together, from start to finish.
