Corner 2 Corner Cleaning & Restoration’s 20th anniversary party last Saturday invited the entire community to join in on the celebration.
The Winkler business sponsored free swimming at the Winkler Aquatic Centre, set up bouncy castles, a petting zoo, and food trucks in the Winkler Parkland, and brought comedian Matt Falk and country music artist Catie St. Germain to the stage for evening performances.
“It’s a thank-you to the community,” explained Tanya Heppner, who runs Corner 2 Corner alongside husband Allen. “We’ve obviously had support for 20 years from southern Manitoba, and we wanted to thank the community for that support.”
The Heppners started Corner 2 Corner from their home. As the company grew, they continued to identify more and more services they could offer, putting together a team of experienced staff as they went.
“We actually started off in our driveway cleaning vehicles, detailing vehicles,” Heppner shared. “And then we grew into carpet cleaning, air duct cleaning, janitorial cleaning, and then the flood and fire restoration.
“Building a business is a continual thing—it never stops. You never stop putting effort into building,” she said. “So over the years we’ve built it up, and we have a good team helping us.”
Today, Corner 2 Corner employs about 30 people, and the Heppners’ children have also gotten involved.
“We have both of our boys working with us right now, and then our daughter’s working with us throughout the summer,” Heppner said. “So that’s super special to us. We’re very proud of them.”
The company prides itself on providing customers with top-tier, professional service.
“We want to provide our customers with a quality service, that’s what we’re here for,” Heppner said. “We want to treat our customers the way we want to be treated.”
“It’s by God’s grace that we are here,” she added. “And incredible team members over the years.
“It’s been a journey. It’s been an adventure. I can’t always say it’s been easy, but it’s been good … we have challenges, but there’s also so many blessings.”
