Lisay Construction has taken another step in expanding its capabilities for the ongoing flood control project in Paniqui, Tarlac with the acquisition of a brand-new backhoe. This addition to the company’s heavy equipment fleet underscores its commitment to delivering high-quality, efficient, and timely infrastructure solutions to the communities it serves.

The backhoe will play a vital role in expediting earthworks, excavation, and drainage system improvements within the flood control project. These works aim to reduce flooding risks, improve water flow, and protect lives and properties in flood-prone areas of Paniqui.

Lisay Construction has been subcontracted by 1116 Development Corporation to carry out this significant project. The company extends its gratitude to 1116 Development Corporation for entrusting Lisay Construction with this important work that directly benefits the local community.

With a proven track record in civil works and a strong focus on community impact, the company sees this equipment investment as a critical boost to project execution.

“This acquisition is more than just adding a machine to our fleet—it’s about investing in the success of our project and the safety of the communities we serve,” said Camilo Lisay, General Manager of Lisay Construction. “With the new backhoe on site, we can work faster and more efficiently, ensuring that the flood control systems we are building will stand strong for years to come.”

The purchase of this backhoe is also part of Lisay Construction’s long-term strategy to strengthen its in-house equipment resources. Beyond its use in ongoing and upcoming projects, the company is looking at maximizing the asset’s potential through rental opportunities, further contributing to operational flexibility and business growth.

“Having our own backhoe gives us greater independence, faster mobilization, and long-term cost savings,” said Camille Joyce Lisay, Business Development Manager. “It’s an investment that serves both immediate project needs and our expansion plans. In the future, we can also open this up for rental to other contractors, making it a valuable income-generating asset.”

Lisay Construction continues to prioritize partnerships that align with its vision of delivering durable and community-focused infrastructure.

The company remains committed to supporting local development while upholding the highest standards of construction excellence.
