Let's take it back to the beginning.

When our co-founders launched Chandos construction, they had a vision to build a construction company that would lead change in the Canadian construction industry. And, be a business that balances both profits and people.

Our founders wanted to create something different. They even steered away from using a traditional construction company name. Instead, they opted to title the business after Chandos Lake – a body of water belonging to Ontario’s Kawartha Highlands - a place that had a history in both of their upbringings.

What started out as a company with a single office, turned into one with 700 employees in seven locations across Canada: Edmonton, Calgary, Red Deer, Kelowna, Vancouver, Toronto, and Ottawa. Chandos is 100 per cent employee owned and the first and largest B Corp certified national technical builder in North America.
