Great Lakes Cooling Towers Inc. (GLCTI) is a family-owned, union contractor dedicated to the inspection, repair, and rebuild of FRP, package steel and wood cooling towers. Led by a Red Seal carpenter with over 20 years of field experience, our team has managed and executed projects across Jamaica, Minnesota, Nova Scotia, British Columbia, Alberta, and Ontario—all under other companies, but now with GLCTI we focus on a more client-driven, transparent approach.

We take pride in being family-owned—it keeps us accountable, grounded, and directly involved in every project we deliver. Unlike large corporate competitors focused on top-dollar returns, GLCTI operates with lower overhead, allowing us to deliver exceptional quality and value without compromising craftsmanship or safety.

Every GLCTI crew member is a union craftsperson with proven cooling-tower experience—no exceptions. We partner with dedicated thermal and structural engineers recognized throughout the industry, combining hands-on field knowledge with engineered precision to keep your assets performing to spec.

Our approach is simple: plan rigorously, build safely, document clearly, and hand over clean, verifiable quality.

GLCTI proudly serves industrial clients in steel, petroleum, power, mining, and manufacturing, with the capacity to support both planned outages and fast-track emergency repairs. We maintain robust HSE programs (Working at Heights, Confined Space, LOTO, WHMIS), carry full commercial insurance, and are fully committed to meeting every client expectation.

Built on union craftsmanship. Driven by safety. Measured by performance. Grounded in family.
