Ten years ago, our Vice President Don Wilkins went to work at the new office for the very first time while our President Amy Wilkins was working on getting things set up from home (and juggling a 1 and 2 year old and puppy). Later that morning, we received a call from Stantec - it was our lucky day! Someone had managed to get their house boat stuck on Dam 4 and we were being called in to assist in the recovery effort which ended up paying $919.50. We were thrilled to be off to such a great start! While there has been many ups and downs since that first day, we would like to take a minute and look at where we are today. We have locations in Nicholasville, KY; Rosedale, MD; Newark, NJ; and New York, NY with over 50 employees. Our staff's dedication to providing exceptional quality of service while always maintaining safety has been key to our success. We would not be here without all of their hard work, long hours, and commitment to safety and excellence. We would like to thank our employees, clients, and community for your dedication and loyalty to Marine Solutions - it is greatly appreciated. We look forward to what we can accomplish together in the next 10 years!
