Nearly 40 years of building trust through quality controls and reliable mechanical service across British Columbia.
Webir was founded in 1986 by Dave Webb and Glen Birth — two tradesmen who had spent over a decade working together and shared a simple but uncommon vision: build a company on honesty, fair pricing, and quality workmanship.
The name Webir was born by combining their last names — Webb and Birth.
Dave ran the office and estimating side while Glen led field operations, a balance that defined the company from day one. Within their first two years they brought on their first employee and began growing steadily, building a reputation across controls, heating, and air conditioning throughout British Columbia.
By 2010, Webir had grown to a team of around 10 people. That same year, the company was purchased by Ross Richmond and Riley Birth — both trained under Dave and Glen from the ground up. Together they carried forward the same leadership model the company was built on, co-owning and co-leading every aspect of the business.
Today, Webir employs over 40 people and continues to operate on the values it was founded on: integrity, quality workmanship, and fair value for every client.
In 2010, Webir was purchased by Riley Birth and Ross Richmond — both of whom trained under the founders and learned the business from the ground up. Together, they lead Webir with the same values the company was built on.
