About Us
History
Tri City Materials was started by two brothers, Ron and Rick Esbaugh, in November, 2005. 
It was conformed by a simple concept to supply quality aggregate materials to its sister company, Tri City Readymix. With the acquisition of a couple aggregate businesses in our area, Tri City has grown and now supplies washed sand and stone for concrete and asphalt plants, road building materials and the commercial, ICI, landscape and agricultural sectors. We now have pit locations in Kitchener, Petersburg North, Petersburg South, New Dundee, and Guelph, all serving the greater Kitchener-Waterloo, Cambridge and Guelph areas.
In December 2017, Tri City joined forces with Miller Paving Limited. Miller purchased all properties and equipment of Tri City Materials and Tri City Readymix. Tri City is now better positioned to compete in the construction and material supply industry in the Kitchener Waterloo marketplaces. We are now able to pursue a wider array of opportunities as projects become more complex and demanding.
We also are big believers in recycling. We take in excess concrete and asphalt from various sites, recycle it to a reusable finished product such as Recycled Asphalt, Type II Road Base, and Recycled A Gravel. This is not only good for the environment, but keeps our valuable virgin material in reserves.
Please feel free to contact us with any questions you may have regarding our products and services. We look forward to doing business with you!
