Northwestern Ontario

We bring the top tradespeople to First Nation communities.

Electricians. Plumbers. Overhead doors. And more upon request.

And we send nothing but the best.

Licensed and insured, across Northwestern Ontario. Road access and fly-in.

This is what finished looks like

The gap is almost never the structure.

Across Ontario First Nations, one third of homes need minor repairs and another third need major ones. New builds have stood empty waiting on a hookup. What is missing is rarely the walls and the roof. It is the trades that turn a structure into a place someone can live and work in.

What we do

Three trades, done properly.

We are not a general contractor and we are not trying to be. We take the trade scopes that decide whether a building works, and we deliver them through licensed, insured business owners we have vetted ourselves.

Electrical

The trade that decides whether a finished building is a finished building. Service, distribution and the connection itself.

  • Service entrances, meter bases and disconnects
  • Panels, distribution and capacity upgrades
  • Rough-in, devices and finish work
  • Underground runs, trenching and site power

We manage many other scopes as they come up. We specialize in these.

How it works

We secure the scope. We own the outcome.

Most of what goes wrong on remote projects is not a bad tradesperson. It is nobody holding the scope. We take that job, then put the right licensed owner on the work.

Step 01

We take the scope.

You hand us the trade scope, not a whole building. We price it, plan it against the season, and put it in writing.

Step 02

We put the right licensed owner on it.

The work goes to a business owner from our vetted network. Licensed, insured, and accountable to us for the result.

Step 03

We stay on it until it works.

Deficiencies are ours to close, not yours to chase. Finished means tested and working, not walked away from.

Bring it online.

Press and hold. This is the difference between a building that exists and a building that works, and it is the whole reason we get called.

Press and hold the button to bring power, water and the door online in sequence.

The season is part of the job.

Remote work carries costs a job in town never sees. Freight, the haul window, crew travel and accommodation, and what one missing part does to a schedule when the next delivery is weeks out.

We have done enough of it to plan around all of that rather than discover it. We build the trade scope against the season, stage material against the haul window, and price the logistics honestly up front. The work gets done the way it should, and when it should.

Where we work

Northwestern Ontario.

Ontario has 133 First Nations communities. Ours are in the northwest, where a few you can drive to and most you reach on a winter road for a handful of weeks a year, or you fly. We plan and price for both, and we tell you which one your scope is facing.

Where we stand

Our name goes with them.

Time and time again we have seen contractors go to First Nation communities and do work that is not up to the standard it should be.

We are here to change that. We place reliable tradespeople who get the job done properly and on time.

Our relationships mean everything to us. Every tradesperson we send into a community carries our name with them, which means we only send the top vetted tradespeople in the industry. We want to do one thing: be absolutely the best at what we do. Quality Service. For the North.
