Here's an example of that splaying. These are the common Dwarf Emerald Green Arborvitaes. I saw them afterward, they did that all the time because the homeowner
didn't know to do anything in the Winter. I believe all you have to do is tie around them with something or wrap them in cellophane. Otherwise, they would somewhat return to their old shape but they were lumpy and you could tell they had been split way apart. When they do that, their appeal goes down all year.
A construction company? I'd go with something common, available at a boxstore nearby. They may have picked them up at a boxstore along with their construction materials, when they were fairly small and cheap.
I'm not suggesting they are Dwarf Emerald Green Arborvitaes. The trees in your photo are more narrow than Dwarf Emerald Green Arborvitaes, I don't know what they are.
