Our History
Our History
Serving Western Canadians for over 30 years
Established in 1989 in Calgary, Alberta as a general contractor, BRT Construction Services has grown to become the most trusted name in specialized civil construction services. With hard work and a vast history of successful completions, BRT has earned a solid reputation within the industry. Through years of investment, the company has diversified operationally and has the capabilities to deliver a broad range of utility services. Our focus on evolving our shallow construction services specific to the telecommunications and power sectors has led to strong client relationships with major utilities, government departments, and large private organizations within Alberta. Successes in these areas have also expanded our geographic footprint with operations now in parts of British Columbia and Saskatchewan.
A SOLID FOUNDATION TO EVERY PROJECT
To plan and effectively implement our massive fleet of equipment for complete turnkey projects, it is necessary to employ a management team and workforce of utility specialist that are well versed in a variety of construction methods. Over time, BRT has assembled a most impressive complement of tradesmen and highly experienced personnel which includes a variety of expert supervisors, experienced equipment operators, journeyman and apprentice power lineman, qualified gas fusers and telecommunications infrastructure specialists.
